SEO Services RFP Template
Structure requirements, evaluation criteria and comparable responses when selecting an SEO partner.
Strategy and execution
Use the resource to make scope, evidence and decisions comparable
A useful RFP explains the decision and constraints without prescribing every tactic. Give respondents enough evidence to diagnose the problem and show how assumptions should be priced.
Ask for a clear approach, relevant examples that can be verified, named responsibilities, dependencies, risks and pricing in a consistent format.
