Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

I've had my website for 15 years, and had been really active keeping it up to date with SEO and was number one on Google for my search terms for a few years. But after all that time, there was some errors I made that kept getting bigger and bigger and I knew I needed experts to help me with this. I got a recommendation for iLocalHero, and it was one of the best things to happen to my website. They helped me get my website back into shape for Google, and also helped me see my SEO niche from a new perspective. It turns out I had been making a lot more mistakes I didn't realize I was doing! They were always very patient in the zoom calls, and studied my specific requests to find the right answers. Now my website is way lighter, and I have a game plan to keep going forward. I highly recommend iLocalHero for any website needs!
