Net66 - google advertising

Bubble16

I have just been approached by Net66 asking me to commit to a six month contract with them whereby they will optimize my website with a view to getting it on the front page of google. Been approached by other companies and ignored them all as they have demanded money immediately and guaranteed my website being on the front page which I consider too good to be true. The only reason I am considering this is as they are offering a money back guarantee if they don't get my website on the front page within the next 6 months and have agrred to ring me back to dicsuss things further after emailing everything they told me over to me so I have it in black and white. Now I would love to improve my ratings and if it is legit am willing to pay to have someone do the legwork for me however I have heard negative things about these offers and am not sure if it is a waste of the £274 it is going to cost me. All thoughts appreciated, thank you!!

Have received the email:

I am writing to confirm the details of our optimization proposal.

* 5-10 keywords - e.g. "telecoms, cat 5 cabling, telephone systems, fiber optics, Manchester

Ignore it - no-one can guarantee anything with google. You can raise your own profile on google by sorting out your own keywords and maybe paying for adwords. The more you post on fora (especially if you have your web address in your profile or your signature) and use places liked LinkedIn and Twitter then your website will gradually move up the rankings.

Don't waste your money on them for something that you can do yourself.

I bet the company can get you on page one of google... but they will optimise your site on a term(s) that will ensure they achieve this. So this will be terms that actually are not that well searched on. Their reports will show good results, whereby, the amount of traffic will be mediocre - been there about 8 years ago.

I went DIY after that with better results.

I have used net66 when I was in business. I never had any offers such a this from them, but I thought they were a genuine outfit. They were not the fastest workers, but their websites were good and they were never pushy, which is rare with these type of advertising people. Not 100% sure about optimisation. Is it easy to do, I never tried??

I bet I can get your site on page 1 for 'cat 5 cabling manchester' It's easy. Just had a look at the competition and I bet within 1 month (never mind 6) you would be on page 1.

What is your site so I can look at your page titles and inbound links?

ps, that wasn't an advert, I do not do optimisation, my point was that they will easily achieve page one ranking for '1' of your queries.

If they let you define which phrase, then I would be impressed!

I not sure about all that, you seem to know what your on about so you should be fine. I was just saying I knew them and found them to be ok. Thats all I'm still not sure what optimisation is, I'm a bit old for all that now.

There's 2 main ways to get to the top of google

adwords
optimisation

adwords is where you pay google (or a company does it on your behalf) to display your site in the sponsored links section for your chosen keywords - This is very expensive but an instant way to appear at the top of google.

The other way is SEO or search engine optimisation. This is very time intensive and involves establishing your website so that google recognises it as relevant and pulls it up the rankings. This involves making sure you have the right and relevant data in the right places in the html and lots of relevant links to the site just for starters.
