SEO consultant

The job of an SEO consultant.

An SEO consultant is accountable for demand that should arrive from Google. The work is not a tracker login and not a sheet of search volumes. It is a choice: this query belongs on this URL.

Companies call an SEO consultant after the offer is already selling and the category terms still belong to someone else. Branded search looks healthy. The blog keeps publishing. The page a buyer needed was never assigned. The first month stops that drift.

At ShoutRank the SEO consultant is the practice. Crawl access comes before a new draft, because a blocked template cannot collect impressions. Then a short list of queries tied to revenue. Then briefs. A mention is requested only when another site will describe this company and land on the assigned URL.

What the engagement covers

01 — The query

Give each query one URL.

An SEO consultant starts with the commercial terms that should send pipeline. When two URLs chase the same term, or the assigned URL is a duplicate, another article will not fix the split.

The SEO practice

02 — The draft

Specify the click, not the keyword.

A term in the title is not a page. The SEO consultant writes what the opening must prove and which internal links make this URL the obvious one. If the gap is the AI mention, that is the AEO consultant’s seat.

AEO consultant

  • 01

    Crawl rules

    Which templates can be indexed, which should merge, and which canonical is pointing the wrong way.

    Demand list

    Revenue queries with one URL each, including the terms that should not get a page.

  • 03

    Briefs

    Outlines your writers can ship, or drafts the SEO consultant writes beside them.

  • 04

    Console table

    Impressions, clicks, and movement on the assigned set, read on a fixed day.

The URL assigned to that query

  • Link from trade journal
  • Link from supplier directory
  • Link from customer story

Mentions

A mention has to land on the assigned URL.

An SEO consultant asks for a link only after the URL has a job. A trade journal, a supplier listing, or a customer story helps when it describes this company and points at that page.

Placements bought to pass authority stay out. If you would not send a customer to the referring page, it is not requested.

The hire

Who brings in an SEO consultant.

Use this seat when category search is funded and you do not want a department built around it.

  • Marketing lead

    01

    The writers are already here.

    The SEO consultant assigns the URL and the brief. Your team ships the page. The monthly table says whether that page collected the query.

    • URL
    • Brief
    • Table

  • Founder

    02

    The budget exists. The bench does not.

    There is no in-house search lead. The consultant names what to merge, what to draft, and what to leave for the quarter.

    • Merge
    • Draft
    • Ignore

  • Partner agency

    03

    The client stays with you.

    ShoutRank takes the query list, the template calls, and the table. You keep the relationship. The seat is still one named SEO consultant.

The quarter

How an SEO consultant spends the quarter.

The query list stays put. The edit changes only when the table shows the assigned URL is not the one collecting impressions.

  1. 01

    Read

    Crawl, canonicals, and the queries already showing impressions on the wrong URL.

  2. 02

    Assign

    Each commercial query gets one URL. Conflicts are listed before a new draft starts.

  3. 03

    Draft

    Briefs or pages, plus the internal links that make the assigned URL the obvious one.

  4. 04

    Table

    A fixed day each month for impressions, clicks, and the next edit.
