I must admit that an SEO Company can play a good and bad role in business success. We have been asked by a Helicopter Hire Company in Cardiff, Wales to send a quote for seo services. Website was amazing and have been done by their in-house web designers and web developers, seo copywriting on the website has been done with audience (and not search engine’s in mind) which I liked the most
Website had all to rank really well on Google, Dmoz listing, Alexa, Yahoo Directory and HotBot and other top directories listings were there, website had a page rank 8 previously and I understand why
The blog was there, presence on social circles and very rich keywords (and easy to remember usernames) for social platforms which were helping in traffic from search engines (organic traffic), I must say they are the innocent people on Planet earth (but again every customer is an innocent customer and you have to provide them information in a simple manner they can understand)
We gone through the ins and outs and submitted a quote, realistic time frame and the time frame we needed to overcome the negative seo that has been done by someone (working on this website)
Their owner has sent me an email “Unbelievable” and I was literally very confused thinking we might have quoted way more than they were expecting. I arranged a call-back later in the day and found, they were paying 80 times more for bad seo than for good SEO (That we said we will do)
She has asked for our own rankings and we were happy to disclose with our own rankings on google.co.uk, plus the rankings we have achieved for companies from Europe from same niche (Hire Business)
But our pricing was still kind of a big question on her mind?
She has asked me to come down and visit her in office over the weekend, we had lunch in Cardiff, which was great – Thank you for that “Sarah” and then I have explained how we calculate the prices, what needs to be done and so on. She told me how happy she was to meet me as everyone else they have called (English SEO Companies) were sending “Unbelievable Prices” – Tens and thousands of pounds for nothing
In order to help her more, I have given her our customers list (the one’s that do not sign NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement and are happy to share their details), mostly small and mid-sized businesses, this list has the person name, email, phone and address and the best time to reach
I knew she was more than happy to go ahead and use our seo services, as suggested, she has called couple of our customers based in Cardiff, Wales, Edinburgh Scotland as well as in London and other cities and she was surprised she said that everyone had good words for the seo work we do and especially for the price we quote!
She has happily opted to our seo services and the campaign and the keywords we agreed together have been delivered in 4 months time (One of the most competitive in the UK)

But that is not all.
Ask what are their website rankings, on what keywords, then do the keyword research using Google keyword suggestion tool, also known as (Keyword Tool), find out the competition and number of local searches are there for those keywords and you would be easily measuring the success (Ranking on keywords is one thing, ranking on keywords that help bring Return on investment is quite another).
For example, we rank on below positions on google.co.uk (Seo related keywords only)
