Today I stopped by Aaron Wall's blog SEO Book. He has wrote an interesting article on Why Many People Buy Shitty SEO Services. It goes over the problem, facts and alternatives.

Many people would like to do SEO themselves. These people or companies should be reading more about search engine optimization, instead of trying to get a good SEO cheap. It just isn't going to happen. For those that want to learn, I really suggest you buy Aaron Wall's SEO book. It is an excellent start for anyone!

Things to think about when looking for Good SEO Services:

If you are buying SEO services for $2,000 or less a month and selling products or services that make you $50 a sale and have an affiliate program that you pay out $30 a sale. How many sales are you really expecting?

If an SEO tells you they can make you $30,000 a month and they are only getting $2000 a month. Do you really believe their services are going to make what they are promising? Think about it, they could be making $18,000 just as an affiliate.

If you are buying PPC traffic and have no organic listings, how much is it worth to you to get that traffic as well?

For any Business
Nothing in life is free. If it is, it probably isn't worth it. Organic listings are free, but that is only if you can do the job to get them.

If you can't do the job, you hire someone. It is that simple. Yes you will have to pay to get those "free listings". But if you hire the right SEO for the job, it will make you a profit. That is what you are looking for right?
