I Hate My SEO Company - SEO Not Working?

Creekmore Marketing • 17 May 2021

Hate your SEO company? I'll bet we can guess why...

#1. They Made Outlandish Promises, But You Haven't Seen Squat.


They got you all hyped up about how much business you're going to get and how you're going to rank #1 on Google. Now, you hardly hear from them and if you do, they make nothing but excuses for why your business isn't growing.


#2. You Search on Google or Bing and You're Nowhere To Be Found, Yet The Reports Your SEO Company Send You Shows "Incredible" Numbers.


Your SEO company isn't being transparent. They're distracting you by showing high traffic to your website, but you're still not ranking well on Google or Bing and your sales haven't increased.


#3. They Locked You Into A Long-Term Contract


If they really believed their service worked, they wouldn't have to force you to stay for 6-12+ months. A good SEO company keeps their clients by providing results, not locking them in.


#4. They are working with your competitors too.


They're cheating on you! Sure, they do your marketing, but they're also working for 3 of your competitors in town. There's only ONE #1 position on Google and Bing. Who does your SEO company work harder for? Whoever pays the most? On top of that, you have the exact same strategy as you competitor. That's a recipe for disaster.
