Choosing SEO Companies

What is amazing to me is to see PR announcements that so-and-so chose SEO company, "We Don't Know Nada About SEO". This particular SEO company, is actually an embarrassment to the whole SEO community, will remain anonymous. They define organic search engine optimization as 'attaining higher results on search engines by making the pages more search engine friendly'. What!?!? So the more search engine friendly the higher the placement on the results pages? Poppycock.

This website is obviously an off-shoot from some web design company who thinks they know SEO and are experts at SEO, how typical. This particular website has no web presence at all and this is the first time I have seen the site after viewing many local companies. The only way they could have gotten the SEO contract is through doing the web design for the company who is just entering the internet market for the first time.

If the company that accepted their SEO services would have the wit just to Google and try to find the company they would never be found to obtain the job. Absolutely incredible. In fact, the press release had a link back to the company with the text Dallas SEO, however, only Dallas was the link, not the entire keyword phrase Dallas SEO.

Here are some stats using a whois service on the SEO company:
  1. Title Relevancy: 83%
  2. Description Relevency: 61%
  3. SEO Score 87%
  4. Images: 44 (missing 43 alt tags)
  5. Links: 50 (no external links)
Next time the hiring company should choose a real Dallas SEO Company.
