1. Will you work with one of my competitors? We will not work with another customer in your home town that is in the same business that you are in. Top

2. How long is our contractual agreement? The agreement is month to month. For the vast majority of businesses this investment is their highest advertising return on investment. Top

3. What if I cancel? While the majority of the work is yours to keep and will remain in effect forever, we will undo the portions of the project that we have controlled. We will quit working on the site and, unless you continue Internet marketing services with someone else or do them yourself, you will very likely drop off page 1 and eventually not be found at all.. Top

4. Is your process considered "White Hat" SEO? Yes, we follow only best practices for SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and Local Business Listings. We simply follow the guidelines that have worked so well for our customers (and thousands others) to achieve page one rankings. We never make any attempt to fool the search engines or violate their guidelines. To do so is foolish. The penalties for getting caught usually involve being banned from the search engine for life, which definitely does not fall into the classification of a "good thing". Top

5. How long will it be before I see search engine ranking results? It may be as fast as a few weeks, but a realistic window is 3 to 6 months. If your keyword has a lot of competition, you have to convince Google that you deserve a top 10 ranking more than another site does. The top 10 results are usually there BEFORE your site comes around. In order for you to win, someone else has to lose their ranking. Google must be sure you are worthy of a  top 10 ranking, and that takes some time to do..Top

6. How do I track the effectiveness of your service? If you are a recurring monthly customer, we will send you a monthly report outlining the search terms that currently display on your web site. We will send you a Google Analytics summary monthly showing traffic to your site, referring sites and the major keywords used to access your site.

You will get reports showing that the articles that we are writing for you are being submitted to article directories and article sites.

We will also send you the results of our Social Marketing efforts to create 1,2 and 3 way back links to your site, if applicable. Top

7. Is the content you develop for organic rankings about me or my site? It is always about you and your products and/or services, We work in local SEO terms to keep your search engine ranking high, but in the end, it is never a design to make the search engines happy. It is a site specifically and carefully designed to promote your business and get you new customers. Top

8. Can I see the sites where you might post content? When you look at your Google, Yahoo and Bing web site statistics you will be able to see  the results of what we do. With a full Internet marketing project, we post to thousands of locations to increase your search engine traffic and visitors. You would have thousands of links to look through, and we're positive you really don't want to do that.. What counts is the Triad….back links, traffic and sales. Every month we will show you your current search engine standings on all your keywords, your total back links to date and the traffic you're receiving. Top

9. How many keywords can I use? We work on a maximum of 5 keyword phrases that we have researched for you. We make sure that you will never be competing for keywords that have the following bad criteria:

• No competition and no traffic. You'll be #1 on Google, but get 0 traffic.
• High traffic and millions of competing Web sites. as a new site to Google, you have no trust and no authority. You have to build that as time goes on, and we accelerate that process for you. With one of those keywords, you won't ever be found on the search engines and the likelihood that you'll see any traffic is very close to zero.

10. Is "Tampa Carpet Cleaning" three keywords or just one? It is just one for our purposes – it is a keyword phrase. Top

11. Can you help me develop an internal lead tracking system? While that is not the business we're in, we will offer recommendations on how to be sure that no lead ever falls through the cracks without implementing an expensive CRM software application, if that's important to you. Top

12. Will my organic listings help my Local Business Listing, and vice versa? Our research has shown that it does play a role in maximizing exposure and displays of your company/firm. It also helps to increase the click through rate of any given search by a potential client because you will be on the same page twice. Additional links provided by our article marketing and Web 2.0 Social Marketing efforts could also provide several more page 1 links. It is not inconceivable that, over time, you could own all 10 positions on page 1 of Google with your own links and links from others that recommend you. Top

13. Can you help me obtain reviews for my business? Yes, we can provide you with five high quality 5-star reviews from real individuals. They are offered in blocks of 5 reviews. The number of review blocks you will need depends on the number of reviews that the top 7 entries in Google Places have for your keyword.

Warning: Do not be tempted to enter 5 really great reviews from your own computer. Your computer has something known as an IP address associated with it, and Google knows what it is. More than 1 review coming from the same IP address (computer) is going to make Google suspicious, and you never want to do that Top

14. Who owns the Local Business Listing after it is "claimed"? Unlike other companies who place the listing in their account, we will place it in your account with us, so you have complete control over it and can monitor the results using the tools made available by the major search engines. Top

15. Can you really "Guarantee" first page results? Yes, we will guarantee that you have a page 1 ranking on Google for at least one of your keywords within 3 to 6 months. If we fail to do so, we will suspend the billing and continue to perform the service for you at no charge until your site DOES show on page 1 of Google.

However, our professionally done keyword research pretty much guarantees that the keywords we provide to you will allow us to get you on page 1 of Google for at least one keyword within 3 to 6 months. We never claim what we cannot do.

You are welcome to download our 50 page Proof Book showing you Google Rankings that we have obtained for our customers.. CLICK HERE to download it. Our intention is to get every keyword you choose there, but that might take longer than 30 days to happen. Our track record speaks for itself. So far, we haven't missed getting a customer on page 1. Our high retention rate tells us that we are doing a good job on their behalf. Top

16. How many new customers can I expect, and how soon will that happen? What we are doing for you on the Internet is advertising. The purpose of advertising is to make people aware of your company and your products or services. That awareness brings them to your site.

 First of all, in order to create that awareness of your company and your products or services, you have to be found. Getting on the first page of Google is not a trivial matter, and many never get there. If you currently have a Web site, it's a a pretty good guess that you're not anywhere on the first two pages of Google. We, on the other hand, can usually do that in 3 to 6 months, as opposed to the many, many months that it normally can take, if you get there at all. 

Now that you're there, getting people to visit your site comes next. On the Internet, visitors to a site are known as "traffic". We are experts at driving traffic to your site. We use some very advanced techniques that get information about you posted to hundreds of different, and very popular, sites on the Internet. We do this for each keyword, so you will quickly have a presence on thousands of popular Internet sites that can send traffic back to you.

There is a ratio of traffic to sales called the "conversion ratio". You would like that percentage to be high, of course, so that, for example, 90% of your visitors become buyers. That will depend on a number of factors:

• Many marketing studies have shown that a prospect must see your advertising message at least 7 times to make a sale. Therefore, the likelihood that a first time visitor will be come a buyer is very slim. You need repeat visits to make sales.
• People that visit Web sites all want the answer to one question, "What's in it for me?". They have a problem and are looking for a solution. You must provide the solution to convert the visitor to a buyer. You attempt to do that with your copy that we place on the pages of your blog. We are not professional ad copywriters. We can, however, offer you copywriting services if you need them.
• People that visit must have the need for your product or service at the time they visit. This is why getting repeat visitors is extremely important. You have to be there when they are ready to buy.

It should be noted that we do NOT make sales for you. We drive traffic to you. Sales are made as a result of the content that the visitor sees. Content is YOUR responsibility.

So, the answer to how long will it take to make sales is very likely 90 days or more. The answer to how many sales you can expect is that nobody knows. Once you begin making sales, we can calculate the conversion factor and begin trying to increase the percentage of visitors that become buyers. Top

17. How can you insure that I will get repeat visitors? If you look at most Web sites, they are two-dimensional and flat. They rarely, if ever, change. Once people have seen that site, there's no reason to go back because it will be the same information. Those sites do not get repeat visitors, other than, perhaps,the site owner.

Blogs, on the other hand, have the ability to constantly add new and interesting information. If you ar a recurring Internet marketing customer, we take your blog that we create and bring in information related to your business, several times daily. We spread the information over your keyword categories and show the article counts to visitors. You quickly become a valuable resource on your subject to visitors, and they keep coming back to read your latest information.

We'll even build an archive that keeps previous month postings, in case they want to see what was there before they came. The secret to get visitors coming back to you is to provide them with fresh, interesting content about your industry. If you are in the automobile collision business, for example, you might offer articles on car care. If the person ever has a fender bender, you'll be the first one that comes to mind. We provide this information on your site. You do not have to do anything to get it there. Top
