TopSEOs rates SEO Companies that enter their details into the site. So the list of companies may not be the full list of SEO around, hovever, they do rate over 4000 SEO companies already.

View the Top 30 Companies
You will see from the table that includes revenue, full time employees, active clients, client retention rate, Pricing (Low, Medium, High), Top Clients

Firms are rated on Needs Analysis, Keyword Analysis, On page optimisation, Off page optimisation and Reporting Methods.

Rating process used by TopSEOs for Organic Optimization

The assessment looks at how the firm works and is able to achieve its objectives. They get feedback from at least three clients of the firm to understand their performance better.

A few questions that may be asked of clients of an organic optimization firm to gauge their level of expertise are:

General Queries:

• What type of needs analysis was conducted before work initiated?
• What type of a ROI were you anticipating, what was achieved and in what time frame?
• What would be 3 things you would change about your experience?
• What was your total investment?
• Rate your overall experience (1-10; 10 being the highest).

Project Specific Queries :

• What are the most competitive keywords you have been able to rank on the major search engines and how long did it take you to achieve those rankings?
• Did the agency modify the way they achieved higher rankings for you based on the Universal Search model introduced by Google? How?
• How comprehensive, specific, and useful are the reports that are offered to the client? What metrics do they cover?
• Do the reports inform you what the next set of steps ought to be to achieve higher rankings and when you can expect to achieve the next set of goals by?
• How many of your top industry keywords rank in the top 10? Which ones?

In addition to SEO companies they cover Internet Marketing Blogs to read and comment on and listings of Job in the Industry if you wish to go down that route. Once you have built up your business you maybe able to advertise for employees here also. I will be covering outsourcing in a future article so look out for this.

Finally a list of Internet Marketing Tools is listed on the site . I will be going through these tools and doing reviews of these so stay turned.

I wish to point out that I have no association with www.TopSEOs.com and this article was written as a reference guide to the site
