Yeah I know some of You would probably outsource your seo for your site . this in it self is great but please look out for these pitfalls. thank you



These are just a few things that I feel is a sign your SEO could be a quack. If your SEO believes in one of these, be careful. If they believe or do 3 or more of these, you might be better off looking for a new SEO.

1- They charge for search engine submissions. Especially, those who charge you quarterly. Who does that anymore?

2- Guarantee top placement.

3- Tries to get you to commit to a year of SEO without even evaluating your site.

4- Their idea of effective link building is reciprocal linking. Which happens to be the only form of link building they do.

5- They brag they can get you indexed in less then 48 hours. Nothing special there.

6- They use the Google pray meta tag on all their clients site’s

7- They associate high PR as the key to ranking well.

8- Can answer this question with an actual number. How many links do I need to out rank my competitor?

9- Swears Alexa ranking is a true measurement of traffic.

10- If a company shows you results of their clients and they are on page five on the SERPs, Run.

Look for these.

This is some very good advice. These tips shouldn't get lost to time. I'd like to include this in some fashion on my Internet entrepreneurship blog. Is that cool with you? You could write it up yourself, or I could edit it and stick it up. I'll of course provide credit to you and a link to your own site (if you have one). What do you think?
