SEO Client Questionnaire Form Template
Get everything you need to start an SEO engagement — from strategy to access in one organized intake.
SEO work without proper context produces generic strategies. This questionnaire gives SEO agencies and consultants the client background, technical access details, competitive landscape, and goals they need to develop a strategy that actually fits the business.
The template covers the client's website URL, business overview, target audience, primary and secondary keywords and topics, main competitors, current SEO tools and Google account access, previous SEO work and known issues, content resources, and specific goals with timeline.
A thorough intake questionnaire also signals to clients that your SEO process is strategic and methodical — not random tactics.
Google Search Console, Google Analytics, the CMS (read access at minimum), any current SEO tool accounts (Semrush, Ahrefs, Moz), and if technical work is planned, FTP or server access coordinated with the client's developer.
'What does your best customer look like?' and 'What content have you published and what happened with it?' These reveal whether the client understands their audience and whether previous efforts have been tracked.
This is common. Use the questionnaire to identify whether Google Search Console and Analytics are set up — if they're not, the first phase of your engagement is establishing baseline tracking before any optimization work.
Yes, but ask for both direct business competitors and SEO competitors (sites ranking for their target keywords). These are often different, and both are relevant to strategy.
Include timeline expectations and budget range questions — even if they feel awkward. These shape your strategy significantly. A client expecting results in 30 days needs different expectation-setting than one planning a 12-month campaign.

Bank Reference Form
A reference request faxed to a bank branch and left sitting in a queue for weeks isn't the kind of turnaround a landlord or business can wait on. Collect the applicant's signed authorization and the specific details you need confirmed before the request even reaches the bank, so a decision isn't stuck behind a letter that hasn't come back yet.

Personal Trainer Intake Form
A PAR-Q filled out in the lobby five minutes before a first session isn't intake, it's a formality nobody has time to read closely. Collect health history, injury information, and fitness goals before the first session, so your trainer isn't building a program blind.

Pedicure Consultation Form
An intake card filled out on a clipboard while a client's feet are already in the soak isn't a consultation, it's a formality nobody reads closely. Collect foot health disclosures, allergy information, and service preferences before the technician picks up a tool, so nobody discovers a health condition mid-service.

Bar Inventory Form
A bottle count eyeballed at the end of a shift and scrawled on a paper sheet doesn't hold up against a pour cost report that says something doesn't add up. Collect what your bar actually needs, item, count, and variance, on a schedule you can actually compare week to week.

Equipment Inventory Form
Equipment that leaves a storage room in someone's arms, with no note about where it went, doesn't show up again until someone needs it and can't find it. Collect what your team actually needs, item details, condition, and who's got it, every time something moves.

Maintenance Agreement Form
A maintenance plan agreed to over the phone isn't a contract your service team can actually work from, especially when nobody's sure whether the twice-a-year tune-up was part of the deal. Collect the equipment covered, service frequency, and a signed agreement before the first visit, so your team isn't guessing at scope once they're on-site.
