LSEO I'm looking to start a digital marketing agency and would appreciate any advice you may have.

Hello everyone,

I'm interested in starting a digital marketing agency that mainly focuses on offering local SEO services in my town. After conducting some research, I've noticed that there aren't many people in this field, and I believe that there is an opportunity for me to fill this gap.

My town has a population of close to a million people and is currently attracting a lot of tourists.

Regarding my experience, I have some knowledge about SEO in general, and I'm still learning. I have previously ranked a few websites on Google and earned some money from it.

I'm seeking advice from those who work in the local SEO field. Where should I start, and is there any free guide you would recommend to someone like me who wants to create a digital agency from scratch?

I have given myself a month to learn everything necessary to start my new business, so any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

You have the capability to achieve this. Begin by taking small steps and gradually expand your endeavors.

Your initial objective is to acquire the knowledge of how to find clients, as this is fundamental. It is essential to avoid being the best SEO expert who remains unknown.

Start by offering a straightforward and easily attainable service. Showcase your expertise in the field and gradually introduce more advanced offerings.

For instance, you can start by providing a basic on-page SEO report and addressing simple issues. Subsequently, you can explore offering subscription-based link-building services or other related options.
