Our Philosophy
Through my experience in working for the largest SEO Companies in the United Kingdom, I have looked at all of the processes and worked out how we can make savings to provide you a lowcost SEO Service. However it is in my core belief that cheap SEO does not exist, instead it is a service where every corner which can be cut is cut to bring the price down. What you get is simply a Expensive SEO Campaign with all of the corners cut down to make it an ineffective SEO Campaign. However SEO Does not need to be Expensive. It is my target to ensure that all SEO Costs are kept under control, and minimised without cutting corners - This is what we call Lowcost SEO.
Whilst every SEO loves a monthly retainer, where we can sit back for 3 weeks and do nothing to your website, then the week before payment is due come up with a quick bunch of useless changes to justify our fee for invoice date, This is in fact ethically wrong. As a child we are all taught to work for what we earn and as such I created lowcost SEO.
I Bet you are wondering why we can work on a website setup from as little as just £199 vat on a fixed fee? Well it is quite simple, I have detailed 10 savings we can make without affecting service below:
* Through working from home, we have low overheads. There is no expensive office furnished with lavish office equipment with gas guzzling supercar in the car park! Instead I work from a small third bedroom in a terraced house in greater manchester.
* We work at being as efficient as possible through booking time slots for your work to be completed. This keeps you in the loop of when your website is going to be worked on - And if there is a delay we will always keep you informed.
* By requiring you to pay for a bespoke analysis(Only if you want more information than our free analysis) of your website (Refunded upon signup), we can reduce time wasted manually analysing websites which does not lead to any revenue - which is one area I have known SEO Companies to waste as much as 10 working hours a day on (Yes that is more than a full time job for one SEO consultant)!
* Through not hiring any sales people, we can save on paying them a basic salary commission! Whilst out sales process may not be the slickest - you are saving money because of this!
* Through requiring a link on every clients website, we reduce the time we need to spend on our link building for our own website - meaning for absolutely no cost to yourself you are helping us to be more productive on paying clients websites - again saving us wasted time and therefore you money.
* Through our primary use of email as communication - we are able to stockpile our answers to common questions, such as what is URL Canonicalisation - saving us time explaining everything multiple times (as I have done many times over in the past), yet however you will always receive an answer to your exact question within 4 working hours. However should an answer need a telephone conversation to explain the issue - We will call you.
* 90% of websites which require SEO, only require a basic amount of SEO to make them competitive for there niche - which can take an experienced SEO less than a day to complete. The rest of the time in a large company your time is spent with Account Managers calling you once a month to send you a quick report they have generated! With Us you only pay for the time the SEO Uses - and a small amount extra if you want 12 months ranking reports.
* Through using our online ordering and payment service provided by Paypal, It allows us to streamline our whole accounting systems! This allows us to minimise the amount of time we spend on chasing invoices, putting cheques into the bank and manually reconciling payments to invoices. In our experience this can take on average upto 30 minutes per month per client - and at our standard labour rates that is £17.50 vat per month you are saving! Add this to the simpler books we can pass to our accountant and it means we can cut his bill down!
* Through hiring our own off shore link builders - and training them up myself, I can ensure we can minimise the cost of our link building activities, whilst maximising effectiveness. For example our standard directory submission package costs just £75 vat for 300 directory submissions - which can take upto 5 days labour to complete - This is only 25p per submission. When you consider each of these directories are picked from our list of over 5000 directories to provide a good strong foundation to your sites SEO. Can you imagine paying someone in the United Kingdom for 5 days work at minimum wage PAYE to sit and submit to directories and link build for you? Based on a 40 hour week at minimum wage it would cost £229.20 - A saving of over £150 per week!
* Through using our own in house ranking system, we are able to send you an SEO ranking report every day straight to your inbox for upto 5 keywords for the first month Free of charge. If you wish to continue with this service it costs only £12 vat per annum
As you can see, non of these cuts affect the SEO on your website, however they would increase the costs to your business by over £300 with other companies!
