For M8, the key signal is that they are actively building domain authority in a competitive market, not coasting on easy wins. That tells me they understand this is a long game and are investing in their own visibility, which a lot of “consultants” never bother to do for themselves. Would I hire them purely on this? If you want a partner who knows what it means to grind in a tough niche and grow authority over time, they’re worth a serious look, especially if your market is similarly competitive. I’d still ask them to walk you through exactly what they’ve done on their own site and how that translates into a roadmap for you, but the fact they’re focused on building their own authority is a positive sign, not a red flag.
