If this is your first time stepping into the world of link building and content strategy, check out some of the most common questions we receive below:
1
How long does it take to see results?
This of course depends upon how frequently you are publishing content (both on and off your website), but you will typically see your domain authority increase before you see your rankings and traffic improve. It can sometimes take up to 6 months to see a change in SEO, but we cannot guarantee any specific timeline. What we can monitor is how many backlinks you earn and where you earn those backlinks, and you’ll be able to see that number grow right away.
2
Can I cancel at any time?
Yes! We do not hold you to any contracts, so you are free to cancel at any time. If you paid for a package (for example, one month of articles), we will complete the month and go our separate ways from there.
3
What is the usual turnaround time for an article?
We can work on a deadline, but we usually ask for one week to write an article. When it comes to pitching an article, it can vary greatly based on where we are pitching that article. If we already have a realtionship with a publisher we can get an article placed much faster, but sometimes we are at the mercy of these websites when it comes to timeline. If we feel getting an article placed is taking too long, we will keep you in the loop and move on to another publisher with a similar DA and audience to try and keep things moving.
4
Why do prices differ so much when it comes to content creation?
A lot of content agencies and even individual writers outsource their content. In other words, they are the “middle-man” and therefore you never reach the writer directly. This causes prices to go up, and unfortunately, the quality of content to go down. We hire employees directly here in the U.S. to avoid marking up content services.
5
What is the benefit of working with a boutique content agency over a full-service SEO agency?
It really depends on what you need (and we can help you with that!). A full-service SEO agency usually has a large team working with multiple different clients, so the one-on-one attention isn’t quite the same. However, they can help you create a streamlined strategy when it comes to PPC, PR, social media, and SEO. We usually recommend you start with a boutique content agency (like us), get your website built up to a certain domain authority and traffic level, and then consider a larger agency. If you’re looking for a full-service agency, we recommend HigherVisibility.
6
Do I need to know anything about SEO to get started?
Not at all. We are happy to explain why a content strategy matters to your bottom-line and help you along the way and even before you make the decision to move forward.
7
Can we complete a trial-run before getting started?
Yes absolutely! If you just want to see an article or two written at first to get a feel for our writing, that’s fine by us.
