Do SEOs pay others to do their work?

    I was just wondering if SEOs always did their own work, because I mean there is so much cheap labor on these forums for example why bother to articles submissions yourself?

    mmm interesting. And do you consider yourself a successful SEO?

    I am just asking this to know wether if I want to build successful websites I should do it or myself or not.

    thx.

    This is not a matter of being a successful SEO or not, its a matter of business model. I only do on site optimization and blog / forum posting because I don't want my business to look spammy. Rest is ok to outsource, even if link building I do not outsource completely.

    Most SEO's have staff working under them. Work has to be decentralised- one person cannot handle too many assignments at a time on his own.

    Some companies do and some do not. I think some seo companies like to control every aspect. While others worry about certain things and sub out somethings they feel someone else can do and not effect thier work.

    I do SEO myself. It's a valuable skill to self-acquire.

    Other stuffs like article writing, article submission, copywriting, web design etc. I'll outsource while I do what I'm best at.

    I think most SEO companies outsource to other countries to save time and money. It makes sense in a business sense.
