How to Outsource SEO in a Successful Way When you outsource SEO, it’s not that you are only physically losing control of your marketing, but that you have no way of knowing whether the same strategy is being put into place. Are you looking to boost your search rankings, attract better leads, or find new customers? Good objectives will also allow your SEO partner to develop a plan that reflects your vision. After you know what you need to accomplish, vet providers thoroughly. Your best bet is to find a reputable SEO agency, like Semify , that provides results, honest reporting, and good communication. We will provide a full range of services from keyword research and link building to technical audits and content optimization. We can help you choose the plan that aligns with your budget and stage of growth, whether you are a single business looking to scale or an agency handling multiple clients. When done right, outsourcing is a partnership where you continue to do what you do best, but let specialists, like us, handle the nitty-gritty of the technology behind getting measurable results. Should You Outsource SEO? The idea of in-house management of SEO sounds like a great thing until you realize how much work it really is. It’s not just about keeping an eye on what the competition is doing; you need to grow it and generate consistent content, or you can quickly be left behind. Many businesses find that in-house staff just don’t have the time or proficiency to manage it effectively. If you’ve ever felt at a loss for staying abreast of Google’s shifting algorithms, or if the responsibilities of SEO consistently end up at the bottom of your to-do list, then handing it over to us could be the best approach. Using Semify will allow you to open up time while leading the rest of the experts who know how to grow your business. The Benefits of Outsourcing SEO Outsourcing SEO gives you access to expertise, and that’s one of the most significant benefits of outsourcing with Semify. Instead of trial and error, you get a team that lives and breathes SEO and stays on top of algorithm updates and what’s new in the industry. This not only saves you from expensive mistakes but also expedites the results. Another key benefit is scalability. As your business or agency scales, though, your SEO needs will change. We can be flexible and scale up in terms of content production, link building, or technical support on short notice—whereas you’d typically have to spend time and money hiring (and possibly even training) new staff otherwise. The potential for cost savings also adds to the appeal of outsourcing. You have a salary and benefits, and perpetual training for your in-house people. In comparison, outsourcing affords you a complete team of professionals at a fraction of the expense. And because reputable carriers are transparent with information and have detailed reporting, you will always know the dashboard kind of view into how your campaigns are doing and where your dollars are going. In short, outsourcing SEO can save you time, give you more control over the costs, and, most importantly, drive better long-term results than in-house teams can routinely achieve on their own.

Last month, several Semifyers – including account managers, digital marketing specialists, and members of the sales and marketing team – traveled to Las Vegas to attend the Traffic and Conversion Summit. Known as one of the best marketing conferences for agencies and entrepreneurs, T&C focuses largely on AI-powered marketing, as well as the latest developments in paid traffic, influencer marketing, email marketing, ecommerce, local search, and more. We caught up with a few digital marketing conference attendees to find out what they saw as the biggest SEO predictions and trends from the Traffic and Conversion Summit that are likely to impact our work here at Semify, as well as how our partners can leverage this information to maximize growth in 2024. Here’s what they had to say about getting to the top of the marketing mountain. Artificial Intelligence Isn't a Passing Fad Because the Traffic and Conversion Summit is most notably billed as a digital marketing conference for AI-powered marketing, it’s no surprise that artificial intelligence was prominently featured in its programming. But that’s reflective of the state of marketing as a whole in 2024. In fact, as Semify Chief Revenue Officer Dave Thomson points out, AI is almost inescapable. “Everyone is jumping on the AI bandwagon, from AI-powered features to company branding,” says Thomson. “For example, chatbots are no longer chatbots; instead, they’re ‘AI support.’” Indeed, AI seems to be permeating virtually every corner of the marketing sector, as well as the workforce in general. Members of the operations team were eager to learn about other ways in which AI can be utilized, especially to speed up or completely eliminate mundane or complicated tasks. Semify Digital Marketing Specialist Cassia Kuhn says, “I was particularly impressed by the talks given by Roland Frasier, Ross Simmonds, and Adam Chronister, who demonstrated some interesting uses for AI. For example, instead of manually creating and formatting a spreadsheet, you can use AI to not only help you find the right formulas but also create the actual spreadsheet and format it in a way that’s easier to understand.” Kuhn notes that these uses have potentially big applications for an white label SEO agency like Semify: “These kinds of applications can allow us to put even more time into creating the high-quality content we’re known for.” Semify Digital Marketing Manager Shelby Toth echoes these sentiments. “From my perspective, one takeaway was quite clear: AI is coming. From blogs for websites to entire podcast-style videos, AI is making a huge impact in the marketing world,” says Toth. “Of course, I knew AI was growing even before attending the conference. While it’s a scary reality for many, it’s our duty to see it and embrace it fast or be left behind. I’ll be curious to see how AI content ranks against human-generated content in the coming year.” For our part, the growing emphasis on AI and how it’ll power digital marketing moving forward supports our current innovation efforts. While we as a team feel strongly that AI will never replace real, human experts, it’s an impressive supplemental tool that can help us and our clients reach new heights. Local Search Deserves More Strategic Attention AI received ample attention at this year’s Traffic and Conversion conference, but it wasn’t the only topic that got our wheels turning. Local search is getting its due, especially as the interplay between Google’s generative AI tool (SGE) and Google Business Profiles (GBP) will make a big difference in how we perform web searches in 2024 and beyond. As Google prioritizes fast, easy-to-digest answers, the search engine aims to keep web users on the SERP itself, rather than clicking away to independent websites. That presents a challenge for small business owners (and the marketing agencies that provide services for them) to increase visibility and traffic without requiring customers to click away from search results. Kelly Donald, Semify’s Director of Sales, says: “My biggest takeaway was that GBP activity and accuracy are crucial for local businesses and are a really amazing way for them to get in front of the traffic that they want to receive. Consistent activity makes a massive difference in visibility and 0 click searches are only likely to increase in the year ahead.” Thomson also recognized the need for better local search visibility for marketers at the Traffic and Conversion Summit. “I noticed a lot of attendees were smaller agencies and even brand owners with multiple locations,” explains Thomson. “The interest in how to better leverage the map pack and GBP in 2024 was definitely the topic du jour.” Adds Toth, “Semify just recently launched our Map Pack product, which allows us to optimize end clients’ Google Business Profiles in a more effective way. It was great to hear session leader Norm Farrar reference things we’re already doing with this product, as well as areas we can focus on to improve it in future iterations.” While Google’s SGE has yet to be rolled out more widely, we suspect that it’s only a matter of time before it becomes the standard. As your white label SEO agency fulfillment partner, we’ll continue to stay ahead of the curve to provide your clients with new and better ways to drive traffic and conversions – even when Google tries to throw us off course. We're Ready For What's Next Above all, these 2024 SEO trends and predictions are telling us to stay on our toes and lean into what we already do well. Kuhn says, “My biggest takeaway from the Traffic and Conversion Summit is that, when it comes to SEO, Semify is unique. Our dashboard is one-of-a-kind, and so many attendees were surprised to see an entirely US-based team.” “My hope is that we can continue sending team members across all teams to the best marketing conferences so they can learn more and bring it back to their everyday work,” Toth adds. “It’s likely we’ll even develop new processes and products as a result. I’m eager to continue learning and growing so we can keep Semify on the cutting edge of SEO for years to come.” Semify’s Director of Marketing Innovation, Jeff Shipman, agrees. “Attending the Traffic and Conversion conference really solidified that we’re heading in the right direction,” says Shipman. “In order to develop an effective 2024 SEO strategy – and especially an enterprise SEO strategy for larger organizations – we have to embrace the latest developments without forgetting about what’s helped us get to this point. Innovating around tools like AI and Google Business Profiles, while staying true to our customer service-centric roots, is what will inspire mutual growth for both Semify and our partners.” To learn more about how our white label SEO reseller program can give your agency the fulfillment and innovation support you need, get in touch with our team today.
Semify's small business survey reveals that 50% of SMBs aren't using SEO. Explore the data and what it means for agencies targeting local clients.
In October 2022, we conducted our “Small Businesses and SEO” survey to learn more about the relationship between SMBs and search engine optimization. We’ve already shared some of our survey data related to the average cost of SEO per month, but there’s actually an even bigger takeaway: Over half of small businesses we surveyed either aren’t using SEO or aren’t sure whether SEO is part of their marketing strategy. As a marketer, you may find this hard to believe. After all, we feel the value of SEO is pretty clear. Not only is the ROI of SEO more substantial than other marketing channels, but it provides a cost-effective way to build trust with customers without relying solely on external platforms. Still, the numbers don’t lie. Let’s unpack the data and discover how you can turn these findings into growth opportunities for your own agency.
