Run….Run far away…..Run for the hills and don’t look back. Its time to take a step back and ask your self some serious questions.
QUESTION 1
“I know top search engine rankings in Google will help my business. Do i want this so bad that i am going to believe this sales rep that only knows what they learned during a two week training course?”
QUESTION 2
“If a used car salesmen told me that a used car with 100,000 miles would never break down, would i believe them?”
QUESTION 3
“This sales rep keeps telling me that ranking a web site on Google is easy and that they do it all the time, should i believe them?”
QUESTION 4
“Everything sounds good, but i don’t see any time in the project that allows for this company to understand my product, service, and business. Can they truly find the best keywords for my site by only reading my web sites content?”
QUESTION 5
“The sales rep/consultant is not asking any questions like: What keywords are generating traffic to my site? Do you have an analytics program that i can review? Or, What is your website’s marketing history?….Yet they are guaranteeing results, should i believe them?”
QUESTION 6
“How can someone guarantee X number of hits or leads? Not even my TV ad broker does that!”
Don’t be fooled by gimmicks, fake guarantees, salesmen, other clients top rankings, or any other sales pitch that is thrown your way. Take a step back and remember - Quality work takes quality time, quality time usually takes quality money.
Take a look at what Google says about SEO’s and some additional red flags to watch out for.
