For the longest time now I have wanted to write about this topic as it’s one that has legs when I am talking to my fellow search warriors. Deciding on which clients one takes on is paramount to not only keeping your sanity, but the success of your company in general. I’d even go as far to say the process has a lot to do with the success of an SEO program. But how does one get there? I have had great clients, not so great and bloody horrid ones over the years. How does it happen? Well, most of the time it is over before it begins. So today we’re going to talk about the process of qualifying clients.

If you aren’t scoring high on these ones, I doubt there is really a need to continue on with the process. The last thing you want is to be in a situation where success is all but impossible. You need to be realistic.

Let’s briefly see it in action: 1. Provide the full URL of a web page you want to analyze. 2. The tool will run an analysis and return the list of most “relevant” phrases. The table of results contains: A word or a phrase; The term type represented as an icon (there are five types: keywords, people, locations, companies and “other” ) “Relevance” grade (How “relevant” it is to the page content) – this is a march smarter concept than traditional keyword density: What you can do next: Filter rows by type: Add selected rows to the SERP tracker or export the selected rows to a CSV file: Check out the SEO Tools guide at Search Engine Journal .
