In House SEO/SEM vs. Hiring an SEO/Search Marketing Consultant
At Optimize4you.com, we’ve been working with more and more companies that are interested in bringing search marketing in-house and/or educating their marketing teams one-on-one or in a small group.
Any marketing department big enough to specialize in different departments will likely view search as an independent and important fundamental marketing medium. Search has already won a great deal of respect. However, it’s going to take a few more years and lessons where companies see their competitors starting to pull ahead in search to wake up management
In-house search marketers and SEO/SEM experts,consultants, etc. can work together. Some aspects of SEO make sense to do internally. Link-building, works better if you have an advocate inside the company going at it. So too does the establishment of procedures to ensure content is search engine friendly from the time it is created.
Tapping into an outside consultant is helpful if you want the assessment of someone that has seen a portfolio of sites — and thus the weird things that can crop up that a single-focused in-houser might not recognize.
Plus, it may be that it makes sense to outsource the paid side and focus on SEO internally (or vice versa) depending on a particular company.
