Client onboarding, in an SEO agency context, refers to the structured initial process of gathering information, setting expectations, and establishing access and reporting systems at the start of a new SEO engagement.
Thorough onboarding typically includes gaining access to analytics and search console accounts, understanding business goals and target audience, conducting an initial audit, and clearly establishing communication and reporting cadence for the engagement ahead.
A well-executed onboarding process sets the foundation for a successful ongoing engagement, ensuring both the business and the SEO provider start with aligned expectations and complete, accurate information.
