Onboarding process for a new client.Every website and client’s goals are unique, so their SEO strategy should be unique as well. The first step in onboarding a new or prospective client is to analyze the current SEO health and develop a robust and customized plan.

I will look at all aspects of the SEO program, including:

  • Strengths and weaknesses of the program
  • Knowledge and capabilities of those who manage it
  • Current total and organic search performance
  • Short and long-term goals of the company
  • Performance of the main competitors

We will set a meeting to review all items included in the SOW and discuss the cadence for work. We will also set up recurring update meetings to ensure that a time is on the books for us to update each others on the latest happenings and ensure that nothing is missed. We will also align with any additional stakeholders who have a say in how the program is built and executed and should be kept in the loop.

The onboarding process is critical to set expectation on both sides. We are committed to long-term partnership that we believe will ultimately lead to organic search success for your team and organization.
