This is something I hear on a regular basis and it couldn’t be further from the truth. Old SEO tactics die on a regular basis because search engines are evolving to consumer needs.

SEO is evolving and getting more difficult to achieve results but the industry is thriving. Getting paid traffic is becoming to expensive and more people are returning and investing in SEO.

SEO is about achieving Expertise,

Authoritativeness and Trustworthiness in the eyes of users and search engines.

The simple answer is yes.

Although AI has taken a considerable toll on organic traffic referrals from Google, it’s still extremely important to have your website optimised for search engines.

If you show up at the top of search engine results pages when someone Googles your product or service, you’ll start to see pretty quickly that SEO is worth it.

Having an optimised website is a major factor in gaining features in LLM’s such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Claude; all of whom rely heavily on Google search results.

Yes, AI SEO also known as GEO, AIO and AI Search is all part of the same strategy. AI still looks to websites for accurate up to date information. The techniques used in SEO are the same in AI SEO tactics.

AI SEO is more reliant on providing the best answer so only companies with excellent reputations, authority and trust are likely to feature.

I like to call is consensus SEO personally.

What is your process?They should explain exactly how they’re going to optimise your site and help you achieve successful organic results.

Can You Prove Your Results?SEO Agencies should have successful SEO case studies to prove success for previous clients.

Is there certain niches you specialise in?Sometimes an SEO agency will focus excel certain niches. Their previous experience may not suit your niche.

What is the cost of your services and why?

How will you measure success on your SEO efforts?

How long until I can see results?This can be tricky for an agency to answer. Competitive markets can take a lot of time e.g. 6 – 12 months to see anything meaningful. There are factors outside the SEO agencies that can influence result time. Here are a few:

– How long it takes a developer to make changes.
– Internal approval processes.
– Content Writing Services.

This depends entirely on the strategy we deploy. Paid Media (PPC/Social Ads) acts like a tap – once we turn it on, you can start seeing traffic and leads within days, though optimisation takes a few weeks.

SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) is a long-term investment; it typically takes 3 to 6 months to see significant movement, but the results compound over time.

We also now factor in AI Search optimisation; as search behaviours shift toward AI-generated answers, ranking requires high-authority content.

While slower than paid ads, ranking in AI snapshots positions you as a definitive industry leader for the long haul.

SEO tools are pretty expensive. We pay almost €5000 a year for our SEMrush subscription and licences.

We also use Ahrefs & Screaming Frog for further website analysis and SEO Auditing.

In modern SEO agencies, the integration of AI to analyse SEO crawls and tool data is allowing agencies to streamline client work to focus on promotion and getting faster results.

No. There is no depends with this question. Search engines change algorithms on a regular basis, which means rankings change regularly.

A search engine isn’t simply 1 to 10 search results anymore. There are rich snippets, knowledge panels, people also ask, and new regular features introduced that we have to compete against.

The most recent development is the release of AI Overviews, where we’ll see fewer organic traffic reports and tracking.

Measuring the ROI of SEO involves tracking your investment in tools, resources, and services against the financial value from increased organic traffic.

Assess metrics like conversions and revenue generated from search queries.

We use analytics to determine conversion value, subtract costs, and express the difference as a percentage of the total investment.

Forecasting is difficult now with the loss of data, but we have to work with the information we have available.
