All additional advantages

I attach to this principle a lot of importance because unlike big corporations who hire in droves web analysts, copywriters, editors and the like, and spend humongous piles of money on pay per click campaigns, all responsibilities related to the ability to reach up the masses online, statistical calculations and web analytics itself fall into the lap of SEO specialist. Personally, I think, that this is the wrong name for this job, but, obviously nobody found any better title.

It is really tough to be the leading in-house SEO specialist because his ass is always on the line, thus the pressure never really goes away. This pressure increases even when the guy successfully pushes forward the business that he is working for, because the company feels that it needs to expand and assemble a team of people who would push up the productivity. Overall, I’ve never met an in-house online marketer who was not looking deadly tired or constantly overwhelmed.

Yet, in a year or so, this SEO professional becomes invaluable for the small business because he acquires so much powerful knowledge and expertise in the required industry, that he can complete some of the most challenging and daunting tasks with closed eyes. In this case, one of the main tasks of the small business owner becomes the necessity to create the most comfortable working conditions and highly rewarding pivotal position in the company’s future. This policy will pay off and is going to be smart investment, if the company plans to stay and grow in its online business.

I did not mention all additional advantages of hiring an in-house SEO specialist, because many of you can fill up the blanks yourselves without my help. Anyways, having somebody who can analyze and explain why things are happening on Internet and fix the problems directly presents more opportunities than turning to the outsourcing company for solutions. This still does not mean that outsourcing firms can not co-exist with an in-house online marketer but I will get into the subject deeper in my future blog entries.
