Don’t Get Mislead By Your SEO Company

Dec 7, 2009 Advertising

1. Look for a company that offers you realistic results. If they are telling you that you will rank number one on Google in a month, then be leery, SEO doesn’t work in this way.

2. You will need time and patience to get your desired results. Top ranking results are gradual, you will not get instant gratification.

3. Be sure that you ONLY do business with a company that can properly explain what services they are offering you, what they do and how it works. If you are unable to understand what they are trying to communicate , or you are unsure of what promises that they are making, then you may want to choose another SEO company. Your SEO company should talk to you, not over you.

4. Get customer references from the SEO company that you are thinking about using. After you have obtained these references you should then check out their page and site rankings, as well as the rankings for the SEO company themselves. If they are unable to accomplish a good page ranking for their current customer base, then chances are they will be unable to do this for your business either.

5. There are many scams out there, so you should beware! Signs that the company is not legit include: shadow domains, when keywords are included in the address bar, if you are unable to tell the difference between your search result and advertisements, requests your FTP account information or root access to your server, and various other suspicious activities.

6. Your SEO company should also NOT require long phrase keywords. These type of keywords do not usually produce good page rankings, as they are obscure and rarely typed in by those looking for a specific topic. Your keywords should be brief and relevant.

7. You should never be required to link to the SEO, as this is often inadvisable and has no affect on search rankings.

8. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Questioning is one of the best ways to find out not only the history of the company that you are considering dealing with but also about the services that they are going to provide for you. Hesitancy to ask questions can cost you big money in the long run. So don’t stop until you know everything you need to know about this company and their business.

If you are dealing with an SEO company and you feel that you have been mislead you should contact the Federal Trade Commission, in Washington, DC.
