    First of all, you need to have brief knowledge about the SEO process. I think One of the best ways to search SEO experts or consultant is online and then you can compare their expertise and knowledge after that you have to do an analysis of their respective SEO works. Some characteristic of SEO experts are:-

    1. He Knows about the Entire SEO Process.
    2. He is able to convert the targeted traffic into actual product sale.
    3. He must have knowledge of Website analysis by using solid analytic tools
    4. He is able to communicate with the business owners without hesitation.
    5. He must have knowledge about objectives of the business, target audience, dependencies, messaging etc.....

    First: Check his references.
    Second: Google him, and also try google "SEO" and see what number his site ranks, if it rank very low - Maybe he isn't that good?

    Since you are asking for off page SEO experts they should know how to build quality links in good quantities. They should also have some unique sources of links that every other marketer doesn't already know about. Also, tell them to prove that they have ranked clients before.

    these days, everyone claims to be an SEO expert and all one man noob service providers claim to be "leading SEO company." i just suggest you to exercise common sense. talk to your "expert" and try to get a feel for it. if you can find some reviews to establish the credibility, that will help. but do keep in mind that an expert will charge you fairly for the services. just remember one thing, you get what you pay for

    An SEO Expert should have following characteristics :
    - He should have detailed Knowledge of SEO( Onpage SEO and Off Page SEO)
    - He should know the clear separation between Black Hat SEO and White Hat SEO.
