Default SEO Touts

Virtually every week someon rings up offering to do our SEO work for us. They always end their conversation with 'obviously there are no guarantees in this industry'

They charge an aboslute fortune too. In your opinion are these companies worth investing in or just stay well clear of them?

Thanks

Stay well clear of them. That they need to tout for business by telephone spamming shows they aren't getting business by word of mouth, and word of mouth is the only certain way of finding an SEO expert who can deliver on his/her promises.

There is a lot of sound advice on the boards here, a bit of heavy reading and you can learn how to do it for yourself. :-)

If they were that good at the business then you would have come across their own websites on Google by now.

Strange that they are SEO experts yet they have to rely on phoning people for business don't you think? Obviously their own website's SEO isn't working for them!
