Companies register their website domain usually for 1 year. And after that period, they renew it. But for some it’s easier to register domain for everal years at once and not to think about it every each year. They do that once in 2, 3, 5 or even on 10 years. If you are one of that people, first question that will come on your mind is “how long I can register domain name for”.
The answer on this question is, as usual – depends. It depends on type of domain you want to register. Or to be precise, depends on TLD or ccTLD. If that is .com, org or net, it’s 10 years in advance. Same goes for most of country code top level domans, too. But there are countries who do not allow registering domain names on that long period.
For instance, you can register Danish web domain (.dk) for maximum 5 years.
German .de for 2 years.
And this few countries allowing registration for only one year:
Belgium .be
Lithuania .lt
Netherlands .nl
Austria .at
Latvia .lv

But this means it have at least a bit of impact. In theory, if 2 web pages have exact same weight for some query, the one which have keyword in URL will rank higher.

An agency made an agreement with client about SEO services, and they should start work. The best way is to have some procedure, written process steps, so you follow it and know what should be done and when. If you don’t have that, work could get chaotic and you might miss something.
First you will have to ask your client do they have Google Analytics, Search Console and Google My Business accounts. If they have, they should add your agency email as admins so you can use that 3 very important SEO tools. Also you will need Cpanel or FTP and CMS access (unless you are doing just consulting work, and client have their own coders who will implement the changes on website).
