Starting SEO salary?

Hi all,

I recently got offered a position as Junior SEO for a small company in SoCal a few days ago. Initially they asked how much I wanted to get paid during the first interview and I said “the same rate as my current admin job $20/hr” which I know was a huge mistake.

I tried to negotiate a higher salary after I received the job offer but to no avail. I don’t have any prior experience in SEO which makes sense.

Anyways my question is this an average hourly wage in the industry? I’ve tried looking it up but the information isn’t clear. I have a buddy here who works as SEO specialist in an agency and told me I should be making just below $50k

I am very grateful for the opportunity as I know the job market sucks right now but did I lowball myself?

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.
