Should your decision to go with an SEO company be based on the long list of things they guarantee they can do for you

or…

Should you decide not to go with an SEO company based on the long list of things they guarantee they can do for you.

Does this make sense? Yes, because one thing that an SEO can’t give are guarantees.  Nothing is guaranteed in life (apart from death and taxes as the saying goes) and there are no guarantees in the world of Search Engine Optimisation either.  The search engines are continually changing their algorithms and they don’t want you to know what, when or why.

So where does that leave you?  You have an online business and you want it optimized. I am not suggesting you go with XYZ SEO Ltd – they are not very good at marketing themselves after all – but do think carefully and do your research. Simply surfing the net for SEO Selection Tips will throw up some great advice. Don’t just take it from us.
