Portland SEO Pricing Costs

By now you've seen hundreds of Orange County SEO "professionals" offering search engine optimization services here in California. You may even be in the quote process and have obtained a variety of colorful, laughable, reasonable, cheap, affordable or way too high of price tags for monthly seo services.

Take your time. You have plenty of choices. Everyone's an SEO "expert" these days. The market is flooded with wannabies, semi-experts and part timers looking to make a buck in the SEO industry. But only a few talented, proven SEO companies and SEO consultants exist in Orange County. Clark SEO is one of them. We've been around for 12 years. Ask how much experience your Orange County SEO has under his or her belt.

Does your SEO loudly proclaim a guarantee? This may be a red flag. Offering a guarantee for SEO services is an easy trick deceptive SEO companies will claim to get your money. Look closesly at the guarantee and what it entails.

Does your SEO offer cheap SEO prices (like $295/mo)? Red flag. SEO takes time, energy, money and experience. You get what you pay for.

Does your SEO company in Portland, OR offer very structured pricing plans (like Gold, Silver, Bronze, etc)? Clark SEO evaluates the client need and market before preparing a custom quote. You and your website are unique, so should your SEO strategy.

Does your Portland SEO offer thousands of backlinks? Red flag. SEO is about quality not quantity. 2,000 low value links can't equal to the value of one strong, well researched, well placed backlink. If your SEO is including thousands of links a month in your plan this could actually HURT YOUR RANKINGS, not help them. And worse than that your website can get BANNED from the search engines for high quantity linking and link farms.

Does your Portland SEO company try to get you to pay annually for a discount? Red flag. That SEO consultant firm is trying to "lock you in" because they know you're going to be un-impressed within a few months. Clark SEO allows our clients to enter on a month to month plan. When it doesn't work out, they have the freedom to stop service. No 6 month or annual contracts, or complicated price plans. We know what you want - to increase traffic, leads and sales online.

Just because you find an Portland SEO website in the search engines while doing research, does not mean they are the best match for YOUR WEBSITE AND ONLINE MARKET. A low level novice SEO can get blog posts, videos, free sites or web pages ranking (temporarily) for keywords such as "Portland seo" or "oregon seo" or "Vancouver SEO". But check back in 6 months.

The most important thing to look for when comparing Orange County SEO companies is to evaluate case studies and testimonials and years in business. Trust is key.
