How to find a skilled SEO sparing partner
-
We are in need of a skilled SEO sparring partner to work with.
We have already done a lot of SEO optimization but the results has not been as good as we hoped.
I believe that might be some issues regarding structure or backlinks holding us back from getting results as I can see many competitors with almost no on page optimization or quality backlinks ranking better than us.
I want to find someone who can audit our page find the problems. Also set some guidelines on what we should fix and work on to improve the overall rankings fast.
Thanks!

As far as my experience goes you are looking for a person who can audit your website and pinpoint the areas that are week and more importantly answer the question that why your competitors that haven’t really done any on-page is ranking better than you.
Once done with that, you obviously want them to work on the project accordingly. My idea is to look for the list of service providers that are recommended by Moz: http://moz.com/article/recommended
Another option could be to meet service providers in your local area and have one-to-one conversation about your website. Ask them some tough questions and if they are answering satisfied question my idea is to go with them.
I did a post about how to hire a digital marketing consultant for your business. Check this out and see if tips here can help!

Hi Martin
We worked on page SEO and created special pages for a list of 25 keywords.
We also optimized the speed and responsiveness of the page.
We are the most active on Social Media of our competitors
We also started working on Backlinks and I feel when I compare our profile we have link of the same quality as the top ranking sites.
I fear that there is some structure or technical issues or something with the backlink profile that cause we don’t rank as well as I hope.
We are ranked between no. 11 to 30 on the 25 keywords and the goal would be to get half of the keywords in top 10 within 2 months.

What are your expectations for the work that has been done so far and what has been focused on so far?

Pagination & SEO
Hi We have automatically created brand pages based on which brand they have in their attributes. At the moment, developers have restricted the ability to properly optimise these for SEO, but I also wanted to look at how we should handle pagination. Example: http://www.key.co.uk/en/key/brand/manutan?page=1 http://www.key.co.uk/en/key/brand/manutan?page=2 http://www.key.co.uk/en/key/brand/manutan?page=3 Should we do any of the following - which I've found in an article: Put no follow on all links located on pagination pages Should we no index these pages as they are wasting crawl budget? - Don’t show links to page 2, 3, 4, 5… 10, 11, 12… at the end of your content but only a link to the next and previous pages so that you won’t dilute your page authority. Or does anyone else have any tips on how to handle these pages? Thank you!

Ugh...getting organized with my SEO
One thing I have learned about SEO is that it takes a patient, organized and task oriented person in order to be a good SEO'r. Luckily I have these skills which I think helps me with my own personal SEO, but at the same time I have other personality traits that work against me at the same time which can distract me from staying on track. I am a goal oriented person - I like to create weekly, monthly and yearly goals to help keep me focused. I am a patient person I am a task oriented person - I can repeat a task over and over again even if I hate it. I am very organized - I am a better house keeper than my wife (which drivers her crazy) but at the same time I have some other personality traits that work against me which counter act against my strong points. I can't leave a task undone and I have to complete it immediately I am a multi tasker - I can do 20 things at once. The struggle I have is even though I set goals, complete them and have the patience to do them at the same time I tend to work on things and won't move on until they are done. Even though their importance may not be as pressing an other areas. For instance I will work on getting rid of Google errors (404's), fixing code issues with the site people report instead of taking the time to work on the bigger things like fixing issues which effected me from Panda and Penguin. I get stuck on these smaller tasks since I know I can complete them faster, but they never seem to end. I would love to hear other models SEO'r use to help them organize their time management and spreading the tasks across the board and get everything done.

How to be a good SEO optimizer while competing with a good ranked Bad SEO optimizer?
My keywords are very competitive. My on page optimization report gives A grade for all the keywords I want to target to my Root domain. But my root domain does not show up on search engines for those same keywords. So thanks to SEOmoz i have managed to understand the place I lack is good link building. My competitors have done lot of link building through spamming, commenting on blogs, directories etc. Now according to good seo, this is not right. What do i do? I get digging more in it, i realized that i am getting traffic mostly for less globally searched keywords. But my competitors get high traffic from well searched keywords. How do i cope with such competition? Thanks
