Answers to help you evaluate your current agency or hire a new one.
How do I know if my SEO agency is actually doing anything?
Check your Google Search Console for increasing impressions and clicks on non-brand keywords. If your agency won't give you Search Console access, that's a major red flag.
What questions should I ask my SEO agency?
Ask for Search Console access (not just screenshots), specific keyword targets with current and goal positions, monthly work logs, and case studies with verifiable results.
What should I look for when hiring an SEO agency?
Look for agencies that publish case studies with specific metrics and dates, mention Google Search Console in their process, offer Search Console access as standard, and avoid ranking guarantees.
Are SEO agencies worth the money?
A good SEO agency can be worth it if you can verify they're driving qualified traffic. The key is measurement: you need Search Console access to see real results, not just reports.
How can I tell if my SEO company is scamming me?
Warning signs include: refusing Search Console access, reporting on vanity metrics, guaranteeing rankings, showing impressive charts without source data, or reports that don't match what you see in Search Console.
What red flags should I watch for in an SEO agency?
Major red flags include ranking guarantees, secret methods they won't explain, no case studies with real metrics, reluctance to provide Search Console access, and reports full of jargon without clear outcomes.
