Digital marketing experts seem to be everywhere these days. These self-professed experts are the reason that many Israeli businesses are being ripped off. There is very little regulation in Israel for digital marketing agencies, so scammers and fakes can easily manipulate the market to trick you for a profit. To avoid this being an issue for you, we’ve listed our favourite things to look out for when it comes to finding the right link building company.
5 Red Flags to Look Out For
1. Unclear Strategies and Outcomes
2. Poor Quality Reporting
3. Lack of Communication
4. They Don’t Care About Your Brand
5. No Real Reviews
How to Spot the Expert
So how do you separate the actual experts from those who claim to be experts? In our view, it’s easy to know who is respected in a field, the marketing industry itself usually holds them to a high standard. This means they will be contributing to forums, blogs and industry events occurring all over Israel. These real experts will also be okay with having their ideas challenged and will be well known to other link builders.
If you’re unsure, you can look for references from credible sources, and check to see what other people are saying about the so-called expert online. Also incredibly important here is some mention of the fact that they know what WhiteHat Link Building is and how to avoid Google Penalties, this means they know the pitfalls to link building and how to avoid them.
How to Spot the Scammers
The easiest way to find the scammers is that they just aren’t anywhere else on the internet. There are no blogs that mention them, there is no mention of them in industry forums, and they seem to not exist outside the company they create. Then again, if you do see them in these places, they are usually spamming their business.
Another great way to spot these fake experts is through the bid they give you for your project, if they haven’t conducted industry research, or they are reluctant to sign a contract, it can mean they don’t care about you and your brand and are afraid of legal repercussions.
If your would-be ‘expert’ seems to be too good to be true, or has overly high and mighty claims with no evidence to back them and seems to be completely unknown to members of the industry, it usually means they are not who they sell themselves to be.
One Final Thing
It pays to be aware of what link building agencies can do when they want to scam you, and how to look out for false expertise where it doesn’t exist. But it also pays to be involved in your digital agency’s link building campaign. The more proactive you are in checking reports and asking questions, the better it is for you.
It’s also very important to note that you are aware that although link building can send through high profits, it can also be done badly and leave you worse than you began.
So be on the lookout, and you should make a great choice in a link building agency!
