The 8th Habit
What is the 8th habit? Of course that warrants a new post which I will write as second edition of this post.
As per as my knowledge is concerned, the 7 habits that you have shown really prove an SEOs as effective. The point “under-promise and over-deliver” reflects many qualities. The good communication, politeness, and on time high performance are some of the qualities that come under it. Points are good.
I got a chance to think point-wise after reading your post. Worth, really worth. I just want to add one more point that is the relevant market study that gives another array of information useful for SEOs.
Your third point is notable. I am new to SEO field and when read the blogs to gather knowledge, some of them are very useful as they are written by the SEOs themselves. I have read almost all your post and it is really working. Thanks a lot and waiting for the next post.
Your post is really an eye opener for me. I am planning to take SEO services for my new website for online business. But I got confused to select the effective one. The habits that you are mentioning are actually the qualities of SEOs. That I have found. Helpful.
Of course, a 5+ experienced SEO specialist knows all about SEO. The now trend in SEO is well known to him. From the customers’ perspective, I appreciate you to inform such points. Give us more.
