Our SEO (Search Engine Optimization) specialists have 9+ years of experience. All their SEO advice and strategies are based on results they have achieved in recent years by working on SEO every day.
The goal of our freelance SEO consultants is to help small, medium-sized and large businesses increase their number of relevant visitors. They do this by setting up an SEO strategy focused on increasing your business’s online visibility in Google, Bing or another search engine. A personal approach is very important here.
A freelance job is work a person does for themselves instead of being employed by a company, and it can involve client work for organisations. A freelancer is essentially self-employed, and the work comes from across the entire labour market.
This covers an enormous variety of businesses, ranging from very small to very large. Organisations, non-profits and even government bodies all often hire freelancers on a contract basis. Because of the wide variety of freelance opportunities, there is work in virtually every field, ranging from one-off jobs to long-term projects.
Work can also be offered directly to the client, can focus on general areas as mentioned above, or can be tailored to specific sectors that require niche skills.
Although hiring an agency may seem similar to hiring a freelancer, there are clear differences. These are the unique advantages of working with an agency rather than an individual freelancer.
When you hire an external agency, you don’t need to invest as much time in managing the projects they work on. DGTLbase assigns a project manager to every client to oversee the specialists working on your project (or projects). The project manager is responsible for coordination to make sure projects are delivered on time. If a project runs late, an agency can deploy extra resources immediately, unlike a freelancer.
Agencies look for clients with several large projects, because that helps them grow and stabilise their workload. That is why we at DGTLbase always aim for a long-term relationship with you, and we will prove ourselves time and again.
Because agencies are larger and have to keep multiple teams and departments on track, they are generally better at managing work – especially larger projects – than the average remote freelancer. They have dedicated teams, organised workflows, access to company resources and paid tools, and much more. So if your projects are complex, we may be the right choice for your business.

Google looks at more than 200 factors when ranking websites. – Because of these 200+ factors, ranking a website has become more complex.
Desmond
Sr. SEO & Growth Consultant
Google looks at more than 200 different factors when determining a website’s ranking for specific keywords. Because the number of ranking factors has grown, it has become much more complex to rank high in Google. For this reason, using a freelance SEO specialist with considerable experience and a proven track record of results is crucial to make sure you attract more visitors to your website.
As a freelance SEO specialist, I think it is important to offer a range of SEO services that fit every stage of an organisation. For example, by taking into account each organisation’s needs and budget at project level, while also considering the technical SEO knowledge within the organisation.
Are you happy with your website?
SEO traffic is often a large share of the traffic most businesses bring in, but it is also an essential part of the customer journey and ultimately leads users to take action on your website.
Most internet users use Google as their search engine when making a purchase, which is why it is important to work with someone who understands how Google works.
The goal of SEO is to lay a strong foundation for a great website with a clean, effective user experience that is easy to find, which ultimately leads to more trust and credibility for any brand.
A good SEO strategy will hold up for years. And, like most things in life, it only gets better the more attention (and investment) it receives.
What exactly is SEO?
SEO (or search engine optimisation) is the process of obtaining free traffic from the organic search results of Google or one of the other search engines. In other words, the goal of an SEO campaign is to improve and increase both the quantity and the quality of traffic to your website. To clarify: with the help of an SEO expert, your site will attract an audience via Google that is interested in the products or services you offer, because they searched for them and know exactly what they want. This can be done through link building, technical analyses or landing page optimisation. An SEO specialist can also help you carry out a website migration.
What does a freelance SEO consultant (or SEO expert) do?
A good freelance SEO consultant will use the best organic search engine optimisation tactics to take a website from virtually unknown to a page-one ranking on Google.
Depending on your requirements, an SEO expert will carry out the following activities to rank your site on Google:
Why do I need an SEO consultant for my business?
Above all, SEO is widely accepted as an online marketing strategy because of its effectiveness. An experienced SEO consultancy helps your business succeed in the digital space by analysing, assessing and improving websites, search engine performance and inbound links. During this process, they provide specialist SEO advice, guidance and recommendations to business owners regarding their audience, site and competitive advantage. Most importantly, this will result in higher positions on Google for your most lucrative search terms and more revenue overall. A freelance SEO consultant can be more cost-effective than an agency because they have lower overheads. They also generally have more experience than the staff of an SEO agency and will improve your SEO more effectively.
When will I see the impact of my SEO efforts?
This is a tricky question to answer – although it is true that most SEO efforts take time to show results (in some cases several months), there are other changes that can have a much faster impact. Ultimately it really depends on the work being done: I have worked with clients whose most important pages were ‘hidden’ from Google, so fixing that issue was an immediate win that delivered traffic almost overnight. With other content-based improvements, it can take months for Google to crawl, re-evaluate and re-index. So in true SEO fashion, the answer here is “it depends”. I like to think most of my clients start seeing results from the 2nd or 3rd month.
