ARE YOU HIRING A BEST PRACTICE CONSULTANT?

Working with an outsourced consultant can be daunting, particularly in the Search Marketing industry. Because success in SEO is so hard to quantify and so easy to fake, you want to know that the person you hire is ethical, capable, and has your best interests at heart.

That's where SEO-BPA comes in. Our member consultants have agreed to uphold the strongest ethical position on Search Marketing, so you can be confident any member you work with chooses to only implement those strategies and tactics endorsed by the search engines. Plus, all of our members have access to our Industry Forums where they can keep up on the latest news and developments in the Search Industry—keeping you and your search campaign on the cutting edge.

HOW TO IDENTIFY A SEO-BPA CONSULTANT

Our member consultants are provided Best Practice documentation and templates to use in their consulting practice. These documents have our "Member of SEO-BPA" logos on them. You can of course also ask a consultant if he or she is a member of our association. If not, simply refer them to our website and they can apply for membership and our stamp of approval.

Unfortunately, at this time, we are still working to design a membership database that you can search to locate consultants by geographical area, expertise, client ratings, etc. So, although we do not have a searchable Member Database yet, please look out for this service in the future.

DOES SEO-BPA GUARANTEE CONSULTANT PERFORMANCE?

We hold our consultant members to very high standards and equip them with everything they need to provide optimum service and results. So you know that our members are likely better equipped, and more dedicated to your project's success than other consultants. However, we cannot guarantee their performance beyond monitoring client feedback and complaints as each of our members is still an independent consultant, and not an employee of our association.

If you ever have a negative experience with one of our member consultants, or you have constructive feedback for them or how they use our methodologies and documentation, please let us know.
