Hello,
Has anyone got any experience of working for this company?
It is working from home doing web optimization.

I noticed that their training course costs £2,500 plus VAT. Basically you are writing articles for clients to enable their websites to appear in the top search engine results. I have typed these kinds of articles for clients by bidding for work on Guru.com, GetaFreelancer.com and Elance.com. If you have never written articles I would suggest you register with some of these bidding sites and gain some experience in article writing. You will not be paid a lot but it will give you invaluable experience in writing keyword rich articles. Despite what Kalmindon state in their blurb; you DO need good English grammar. Clients do not want badly written articles, they want interesting and ORIGINAL work. My impression of Kalmindon is you will be paying them a lot of money for a training course you don't really need.

Many thanks for the info. Yes, I also felt it was too much money to pay out for no guaranteed return. I will look into your recommendations.

shows how much effort Jobcenterplus put into vetting their job adverts, letting dodgy rip-off 'companies' like them use them for promotion:mad:

Stay away from this company. It's a total scam.

The company was banned from avertising this role on the Jobcentre Plus website in June of this year. This was due to the amount of people who complained about not getting paid after paying £3000 to join the company.

The directors Jim and John akin have a number of law suits currently being taken out against them.

There's an excellent thread going on at the moment, entitled "Kalmindon the (Not So) Ethical Search Engine Optimisation Company". Just do a Google search on Kalmindon and it should come up within the first couple of pages. You will get a much clearer idea of the company and Jim Akin, the man behind it all.

Jim Akin is now masquerading under a different name, SEO Training from K Group Training, trying to sell SEO training. Avoid it at all cost.
