SEO/SEM/PPC FAQ

How do you get my site to the top 10 results?
By increasing the keyword density on a page with the targetted keywords, increasing incoming links and adding content pages among other very relevant strategies and tools

How long does it take to get to the first page top 10 listings?
It can take anywhere between a few hours for PPC listings and many months for organic/natural SEO listings. with PPC (paid/sponsored listings) you can get your ads to feature on top as soon as a campaign is setup and ready, you will then be able to enjoy targeted traffic within 20 minutes. with SEO organic/natural campaign it is depending on many aspects and mostly on the length that your domain and site are online, what kind of Page rank your site enjoys and the amount of links it pulls in from other relevant sites. all these can take a few weeks for an established site and 3-10 months for a new site.

Do you offer any sort of guarantee for top ten listings?
it is impossible to offer any sort of guarantee for any SEO campaign since the SE's algorithm is not presented to us and the search results can be changed by the respectful SE's without any early notice. we do guarantee though that the work performed on your site for an SEO campaign is at the very high standard and complies with the SE's guidelines as well as "white hat" SEO ethics and strategies will be implemented for a long term success for your online business. it is suggested to stay away from "black/gray hat" SEO companies which offer any guarantee over the organic/natural results of the SE's

How much does it cost?

I have a small advertising budget. Won't the big guys outrank me by paying more for the same keyword?

No. The Quality Score of your keyword sets the minimum price you'll need to pay to trigger ads on Google. It also helps determine your ad's position on a search results page. Even if your competition is paying a higher maximum cost-per-click (CPC) than you, you can win the top placement - at a lower price - with highly targeted keywords, ad text, and campaigns.

We believe strongly in maintaining the quality of our search results. By rewarding advertisers with a lower CPC for high-quality keywords, we're ensuring that our users (and your future prospects) get the best results for what they're looking for. This also provides an equitable marketplace for all advertisers, regardless of size or budget.
