A client’s first month of SEO is one of the most important months as we’re setting up the foundation of their entire campaign. Below are a few reminders of what the rep is responsible for and how to correctly submit it to the QA team.
DS-specific tasks are labeled with 
and ARI-specific tasks are labeled with , all other tasks apply to both brands.
Client sheet - Work Done URLs
Please add the Homepage URL for the first month Work Done. Even though you will work on multiple pages in the first month, we are only reporting on the homepage to keep the report clean and organized.
SEF URLs (DS Only)
Any page you work on in the first month, should NOT have an SEF URL. We only apply SEF URLs to inventory list pages we create and since we typically won’t be creating any new pages in the first month, all submitted URLs should be defaults (/default.asp?page=xNewInventory) —this does not apply to v7 sites.
Showroom Links (DS Only)
By default, there are new (--xNewInventory) and used (--xPreOwnedInventory) inventory list page buttons on the showroom page. Follow this guide to update them so you don’t have two versions of the same URL on your website.
Homepage Paragraphs
Please review any pre-written content in the homepage paragraph(s) and make the following changes if necessary:
Check content for spelling & grammar errors, typos, and correct dealer name and locations
Add or remove trademarks as necessary
Shorten long lists of brands and/or inventory types to 4 or less. You can end an abbreviated list with wording like “and more.”
De-link hyperlinks as necessary to meet the following guidelines:
Hyperlinks should be limited to 3-4 total
De-link a hyperlink if there is a button on the homepage that matches it (unless there is a research-based need for an exception)
They should be important and relevant to conversions and leads, not a scattershot list of brands and product types. Good hyperlinks would be:
