business interaction
In the previous post, we took a look at the hands off client, who pretty much leaves everything to his SEO company. Here are the other two types of SEO clients.

The Moderately Involved Client
According to Jeff Quip, this type of client has some knowledge of SEO and its potential results. As such, the moderately involved client spends more time interacting with his SEO company. The thought that his involvement might bring about better results has also crossed the mind of the moderately involved client. There is some tentativeness still, however, hence the moderation with regard to interaction. The important thing for this type of client is that he takes on a more active role when it comes to the SEO process. He may dabble in content writing every once in a while as well.

The Whatever You Need Client
This client is described by Jeff Quip as being committed to reach the top rank in his niche. When it comes to being at the top, you would want to be recognized as an authority in your field. Building this reputation, however, needs more than SEO. It takes hard work – both on the part of the SEO company and the web site or blog owner – and requires a lot of input from the authority – the client. In short, the point of view of this client is long term.

So, which type of SEO client are you?

    Hello,

    Interesting post that you wrote. I wanted to say that when most customers hear the term “SEO” they really don’t understand the true concept or time involved in achieving top results within their niche. So regardless most times you need to educate people as to what true SEO is… because think it is simply a first page ranking on a search engine like Google.

    SEO is a team sport between the company performing SEO and the company that needs the SEO help. Just my two cents
