People Management Method For An SEO Company

By Lori West


If you are a customer of an SEO provider, would you look at core ability of the SEO professionals or on the company's established people management procedures? Search engine optimisation is extremely specialised domain of information technology that brings together Web Design and development with content writing. It games the algorithm of search engines like Google and Yahoo to make your website well voted for. While being very vital to business, SEO services organizations are not yet fully and formally evolved as an trade of its own. Because of this, management of SEO companies is unchained compared to the institutionalised management philosophy of call centers which are part of the business process outsourcing industry.

This can be due to SEO being so evolving. There is no hard and fast rule to make a website rank high in the search engines. The only thing institutionalised in SEO is the distinction between white hat and black hat SEO, the former being the favored moral manner of gaming the search algorithms.

This tentativeness often translates into a disconnect between the customer and the SEO provider. Customers of course desire predictable and steady results. But reliability can only come from a highly well-organized company with predictable operations. Because of this, it is but fitting for SEO outfits to make investments in people management. After all, it's the people behind the SEO company that makes the SEO success feasible.

To pull off this, workforce training on business process outsourcing is vital. SEO organizations are not formally part of the BPO sector, but they can make use of philosophy of client communication and fulfillment, of knowing the voice of the client even as they are offshore, and of timely and consistent delivery of customer expectations which are the goals of a call center BPO company.

Given the similarity between the goals of a BPO and an SEO provider, it is good for managers of SEO businesses to put into operation institutionalised learning for its people, in place of ad hoc education activities, and rewards and growth activities. The People Capability Maturity Model or CMM introduces planned growth guide for providers and their people until they reach maturity tiers. The learning and rewards experience occurs in an organized, and regimented method which the people are most receptive to.

Most SEO outfits put into operation very ad hoc people management strategies. The People CMM model introduces a coherent way of people management with the eventual objective of achieving a mature, disciplined and consistent step up of workforce knowledge, skills, and motivation. This will then purposefully enrich business operation.
