Although it can be tempting to do SEO in-house, it can actually be really difficult, expensive, and time-consuming. You will need an entire team of experts to do your SEO in house. This includes, but is not limited to, tech developers, professional copywriters, outreach specialists, digital strategists, and more. These jobs not only call for high salaries, but finding the right people for your business will take time, and even then, there’s no guarantee that they will stick around.
On the other hand, hiring an agency to handle your SEO can be a lot more cost-effective and save you a lot of time. SEO agencies already have all of the talent on hand; for instance, at First Page Vienna, we have over 60 experienced digital marketing specialists in our office. So instead of you having to hire all of the positions needed (which can take months or years), we have the team already in place and can start working for you immediately. Professional SEO Agencies also typically have better quality control and a proven track record of getting things done.
