With so many companies out there offering seo services, like any industry there are the good guys (like us!) and unfortunately quite a few of the bad guys. Here at F&B Creative we give you some tips on how to avoid the seo bad guys.
TIME SCALE
SEO is not something can can be done over night, search engine marketing is something that should be carried out for the duration of your sites life. Any seo company professing to achieve top rankings in a few days or a couple of weeks are just lying...dont fall for it. SEO takes time and should be done in a controlled and organic manner so not to raise any suspicions from the search engines. Lots of damage can be done if too much is done too quickly.
PRICING
Compare the pricing from a number of seo companies and go for something around the middle ground. Something thats seems to be 'too good to be true' usually is. Cheap is usually cheap for a reason!
PLANNING
Does the seo company have a realistic plan? Can they explain to you in easy to understand language what their seo plans are, or do they try to baffle you with jargon. If they cant explain their plan of action in easy to understand language, then they are probably bluffing - SEO doesn't have to be complicated.
DON'T BE RUSHED
Taking on an seo company is a big step and can cost a lot of money, so dont be rushed into signing up. Ask to see results of their seo work and any customer testimonials they may have, dont just sign up with the first seo company you speak too - like anything shop around and take your time. Also dont sign upto any long term contacts, any seo companies worth their salt will let you cancel at any time or a months notice.
