Is this still considered buying links?

Let's you're paying someone legitimately (like an SEO expert who works at an actual agency in the U.S. who does freelance work) to actually do white-hat outreach to acquire quality links for your brand, then this is not considered buying links, am I right? I don't see how in the world you can ever get penalized for doing this. It's not like I am paying $10 to incompetent Indian spammers overseas (see Fiverr) who immediately raise a red flag and should be avoided at all costs. I am talking about actual U.S.-based agency guys with a portolio and a Linkedin porfile who do real SEO work and is even willing to hop on a call with you.

Of course, I am paying for a "service" in hopes of acquiring high-quality links, since the work will be strictly manual but it's really not "buying links" straight off the bat. But of course people will always tell others, "never buy links". But I'm pretty sure in cases like this, it's perfectly fine, no?

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

GMB territory inching with service company

Seeking advice on extending our service area, while our main GMB profile states SD County, we only rank in our neighborhood but we have the team to service much more jobs. The boss wants us to get addresses in these hot territories within the county and use call rail numbers to validate the GMB profile. Question: Does this still work? Will it catch up with us? OR is there a better way to rank in a territory for a service. We are 4.9 stars with 120+ reviews submitted by /u/SoCal619TradesPro [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/9RWmh6i
