But most don't promise those results for highly competitive keywords. IMO, hiring an experienced in-house SEO expert is definitely the way to go.

SEO is ever changing and not an exact science. I can give you another perspective on SEO. I do SEO professionaly. I run a couple of my own sites but mostly opt. others sites. I think most people think that they can open a website and put a term in a keyword tag and then go to google and rank in the top 10. The hard truth is that there is a great deal of wok and time required to get top results. The most important and overlooked rule is to build a site that your visitor will find interesting and valuable. Sites that go viral because they have quality content require much less work. Content truly is king......... It is important to educate yourself on SEO a bit before hiring a company to do it for you. SEO is ever changing and not an exact science.

I believe it depends on who you learn SEO techniques from, whether they have done trial and error and learned the tricks themselves or if they've just read all about what people talk about (which isn't necessarily all truth). Fortunately, I learned from a great SEO team who have known the ropes for quite a while. Agreed.

PPL have no freaking idea what the SEO is. I used to work for a big company in the SEO department and all the other departments were wondering all the time what the hack we were doing there :) Anywho, my advise is - dont pay when you dont know what you are paying for Haha,

Now, I know they are only taking people's money and go to the local pub with them. It does not take an expert to realize they are lazy. I was never in doubt about this.

You can't completely rely on the references they give you. You can do a little research to find their clients or former clients with some backlink research or a Google search. After you find their site, shoot them a simple email to ask them a couple of questions about their results. Just remember... - Some firms do more than SEO. They could be a regular design client. Make sure you ask. - Dissatisfaction may stem from impatience. Competitive terms can sometimes take a while to rise to the top. Do you research!! Not all firms are created equal!!
