16Am I tied to a long contract?
You are free to cancel anytime. However, we encourage clients to work in 6 and 12 month commitments as longer term effort often yields the best SEO results. To encourage longer commitments, and therefore better results, we provide discounts for longer term commitments to our managed SEO service.
17Are there monthly minimums?
Yes, we typically require monthly minimums for managed SEO of $2,000 to $3,000. While we can go smaller for hands-off link building campaigns, managed SEO is not cheap. You do not want to risk the quality of your organic marketing campaigns to SEO bargain sellers. The consequences can be more expensive than the input. We run a professional process, including regular reporting for your campaigns. As the saying goes, "you get what you pay for."
18Why do you decline some clients?
Not all clients are a fit for our process. If we believe our input will not benefit both parties, we may decline a particular client engagement. We also do not engage in certain industries including porn, pills and poker.
19How does campaign reporting work?
We provide monthly reports for all managed SEO clients. With each report we include details on links procured, content created and tactics used. In addition, monthly reports will include details of gains on traffic, keyword rankings and overall campaigns successes, including strategic suggestions and budget shifts for subsequent months.
20How does the monthly strategy call work?
Every client will be invited to an on-going monthly strategy call to discuss the previous month's efforts, the monthly report and any updates to the campaign. In addition, monthly calls will go over desired SEO KPIs important to you, the client. Monthly calls are also helpful as budget allocation may require shifting in order to have maximum impact for your online results.
21What happens once payment has cleared?
Once we receive initial payment for your campaign, we provide password protected access to our reporting portal where you can view your monthly reports, including link reports. You will also be introduced to your campaign manager assigned to your account.
22How long will it take to see results?
SEO results do not happen overnight. Read more about how long it takes to rank here. Truly epic results are measured in months and years, not days and weeks. However, consistent managed effort, including on and off-site content production, is critical to gaining wider exposure for your brand online.
23Why should I trust you with my SEO?
Since 2008 we provided massive SEO results to SMBs and some of the most well-known venture-backed and Fortune 1000 companies. We only share details on a few, but we are truly the premier SEO agency for quality content, links and results.
24Do you guarantee results?
We never guarantee specific organic rankings. You should never trust anyone who does. When it comes to quality SEO, there is never a silver bullet or one-size-fits-all approach. Each campaign requires tailored keyword & competitor research and a whole lot of boots-on-the-ground work, creating awesome content. Rankings will follow, but patience is required. And while we don't guarantee rankings, we can showcase past client wins of 1000% traffic increases from relevant rankings.
25Can I resell your SEO services?
More than 40% of our active clients are other agencies who resell our services under our white label SEO program. All of our services, including our monthly reports are white-hat and can be white labeled to fit your own client reporting needs. Contact us to discuss an agency partnership.
