Beware of Black Hat SEO Tactics
The Marketing Square uses organic website SEO vs. Black Hat SEO tactics.
That means we use tactics on websites that are fair in Google’s eyes and we don’t have any tricks or do things that can get your website dinged.
If you try to cheat Google for quick results using any dirty or “black hat” tactics you will be caught. Google doesn’t miss a thing.
Google wants websites with legitimate interest by readers, viewers, listeners because you have interesting content.
Try buying fake followers, friends, likes or fake reviews (just a few examples) bought online or try to cheat the system? You’ll get caught and the retribution is brutal. Your website can get bumped to the bottom pages and never rise again.
Many clients The Marketing Square rebuilds websites for have horror stories about being ripped off by fly-by-night companies that took the money and ran.
Top 5 Website Red Flags
1. “We’ll get you on the first page of Google so you can make money fast.”
2. “We will optimize your site to increase its rankings now.”
3. “Attract new users through the use of relevant keywords and tags” (DATED tactic!)
4. Website has no “About Us” with names and pictures of owners, staff, street address, working phone number, e-mail only.
5. “We ran our SEO and SEM software on your site and it’s lacking in the following areas: …”
Website Results Are Never Overnight
Website traffic and search engine optimization do not work quickly nor do AdWords. If someone tells you they can get you, clients, fast?
If you want to have a website built the right way contact us. We Skype with clients so that you can see who The Marketing Square is, or we meet in-person or have conference calls.
The companies promise to build a website and then get it placed on the first page of Google but they disappear after using black hat (illegal) SEO tactics.
What is Search Engine Optimization?
SEO=Search Engine Optimization. The magical coding and programming for websites so that they are found on search engines.
The Marketing Square uses organic SEO in all website builds and rebuilds.
Many companies disappear after cashing the checks and doing about a third of the work–if any–and achieving rapid but illegal Google rankings.
Business owners from Winter Park, Florida, to Traverse City to New York City have complained that their websites were started by someone who disappeared with the website content, the passwords, domain, server, e-mail, and Facebook passwords.
So when The Marketing Square gets a request for a website rebuild we often start from scratch. We also have to explain what we do and how long it will take to get a website on the first page of Google.
If it can be done, Jon Maue, tech whiz, and programmer will do it. He’s been building websites since 1995. His capabilities are irreplaceable and I have yet to meet a webmaster with more website design skill and advertising knowledge. Oskar Borbas knows everything Jon knows and is a generation younger bringing new, better, different to mix with Jon.
So if we can’t get your site onto the first page of Google we’re going to tell you.
The difference in our website builds and other companies is that we use organic tactics. Organic means natural, legal coding and programming methods.
We don’t use black hat tactics–illegal and unethical website programming methods that can get you, your company, your website, and future domains banned by Google and other search engines FOR LIFE. Forever.
Google and other search engines don’t fine users of illegal, black hat tactics. They ding them and ban the domains. There’s no notice sent. It’s noted by Google though.
We do what clients ask, we go beyond what’s requested and we let our work speak for us. We train all clients how to use their own websites to post or change content, video, blogs, and pictures, and manage their e-commerce.
There’s only one real way to know if what we do works. Contact any of our clients for reference. They’re all on our website and will tell you what they think of our website builds or rebuilds.
We keep our word to do what is promised and if we can’t do what’s asked we’re going to tell you.
So the next time you get a SPAM e-mail from a random stranger or a company promising you SEO, the first page of Google, check them out and their clients.
Some may actually be legitimate businesses who decided to SPAM you because they’re desperate for business.
Or they could be a fly-by-night company willing to tell you what you want to hear and use black hat tactics to ruin your company name on Google.
