How to pick a package: Ask vendors for specific deliverables, timelines, examples of past results, and measurable KPIs (traffic, rankings, conversions). Consider starting with an audit and a 3–6 month pilot to evaluate impact. Pricing should reflect clear work, not vague promises—look for transparency and regular reporting to track ROI.
