By paying you guys...?

[vacksah]

By paying you guys each month will you be making my website more visible and accessible or will you only point out the mistakes I should fix?

Wouldn't That Be Cool.

When I was paying 50,000.00 to 75,000.00 dollars per month to Google for AdWords they wouldn't give me any help with my natural search ranking either.  I would get Christmas presents, and had my own personal Google adviser. They would call me every month and ask me if there was any way Google could help my business. Every month I would say "Yes, give me some insight into ranking better in the natural search results."

I found SEOmoz and started reading. Reading. Reading the comments after the posts.  I started taking some of the things I learned and applying them to my business website. Taking my own future in my own hands, learning some new skills. I signed up for Pro. I attended seminars. I got involved.

It took a while, but I went from page 28 to page one. (yes really page 28). Since then I have never been off of the first page for any of my relevant target search terms.

What's it worth? Well in my own business, it means a saving of more than $1.5 million in a couple years and a new SEO business. It also is the difference between being IN business and being OUT of business in this economy.

Good news, you found the right place to get the best information on the planet to HELP you promote your own business. A STEAL at even the premium prices.

You can however, just pay someone to look after your business website, make sure it ranks well, fix mistakes, point out things you should do different. You can check out some of the best HERE.

Hello Stephon,

Nope unfortunately SEOmoz doesn't provide that kind of service, I know how you feel, I think most webmasters do feel the same way. I bet you're thinking"with all the information I have on my table where will I start?".  While keyword research is already an handful in getting a good ranking there are two things that I think would be safe to assume altogether.

In optimizing your site you need two things. links and content.

Start with content and then links will come after.

Message me if you need more help ^_^

Stephon,

I will say that the changes you need to make are more often simple than hard depending on your platform. Also, if you are looking to hire, SEOmoz has a section for that as well.

Hi Stephon,

At $99, the monthly cost of the SEOmoz pro membership would be insanely cheap if it actually performed automated SEO.

However, if you are running a business that benefits from an easily discoverable website (almost any business!), and you've not yet performed any SEO then there is almost certainly going to be a very high ROI on doing so.

If your budget doesn't reach to hiring an SEO company, then you could consider learning the basics yourself. The book "The Art of SEO", combined with the tools on offer at SEOmoz could get you doing the basics yourself quite quickly, and if you stuck at it you could move on to the advanced stuff.

Otherwise, there are many great SEO companies out there, but be sure to do thorough homework before you go for it with anyone.

Best of luck!

Thanks for your reply. I was hoping the answer was different tho!

Even though I'm not a SEOmoz employee, I think I can answer this answer on behalf of them.

SEOmoz will not make your website more visible or accessible as a direct result of your payment. If you decide to take a PRO membership with the site however, you'll get access to premium resources that will enable you to take your website to the next level with regards to SEO, and keep increasing that level over time.

By using the (premium) tools that are available to PRO members (such as the campaigns that you can use to monitor weekly crawls of your selected websites), you can see very clearly which mistakes you've made on these sites and what you can do to improve your SEO.
