The salary of an SEO specialist can vary greatly: from small amounts to several thousand dollars per month. Why is this happening? Why do some specialists receive high fees, while others cannot find work with decent pay? The answer is not always skill level, although that is an important factor.
Despite all the forecasts about the possible disappearance of SEO, the profession of an optimizer remains one of the most in demand. To verify this, just look at the statistics:
On one of the major job search sites you can see that the number of vacancies for SEO specialists in Moscow is in the thousands. And if we take into account that many of these positions involve remote work, then each specialist has the opportunity to compete in the international labor market.
Many specialists complain about low salaries and poor working conditions. What is the reason? The problem is that many SEOs don't know how to "sell" themselves. They do great work for others, but often forget the importance of their personal brand. This paradox often leads to the fact that a professional cannot find a job with decent pay, despite his knowledge and experience.
Another aspect of the problem is limited professional knowledge. In Russia, there is a stereotypical attitude towards specialists in the field of information technology, and workers in this field are often perceived as “just computer scientists.” Look at the developers: new technologies appear every few months, and to remain competitive you need to constantly evolve.
The same is true with SEO. Search engine algorithms change frequently, and there is really no hard data on how search engines work. The process of SEO promotion is like reading tea leaves. But it's not just that. Many employers mix different areas: SEO, social networks, contextual advertising and other areas. To remain in demand in the market, a specialist needs to master many related skills - even at a basic level. Layout, programming, design, copywriting, SMM and psychology are essential skills for a modern SEO specialist.
So, you have a lot to learn. This is, of course, difficult news. But the good news is that you will have fun while learning, and the knowledge pays well.
Top tip: As you grow in SEO, don't forget to work not only on your professional skills, but also on your communication skills, project management, and personal brand development. Create a portfolio, improve your social media accounts. This will provide an opportunity to earn more by using employers and projects as steps towards a better financial outcome.
Be bold and may luck be on your side!
