If you own a business, trying to master the complex art of search optimization (or SEO) might feel like a fruitless battle. Maybe you've read every blog post, watched every YouTube channel, hired an SEO agency, and you still haven't seen any improvement in your rankings. That doesn't mean SEO doesn't work — you might just need help from a better source.
Writing for Business 2 Community, D'Vaughn Bell says that one of the best things you can do when investigating an SEO company is to talk to their clients.
"A reputable SEO Company should have some client feedback and testimonials on their website or around the web," Bell says.
One company that fits that bill is SEO Werkz. By prioritizing transparency and eliminating contracts, the company has attracted many loyal customers through the years. While you can read through several testimonials on their website, here's what a couple of satisfied customers are saying about their experience.
'Set it and forget it'
When you've got a business to run, you don't have time to be burdened with tasks that slow you down. That's exactly what attracted Amie Leany, Practice Manager at Clarity Skin, to SEO Werkz in the first place.
"We chose SEO Werkz because of their reputation in the industry [for] being able to kind of 'set it and forget it.'" Leany said. "I have many things on my plate, so the last thing I want to worry about is, 'Is my SEO and my website up to par to what it needs to be for our industry?'"
Aside from saving time, Leany's favorite aspect of SEO Werkz is their flexibility and their ability to handle any situation that arises. Someone is always just a click or a phone call away to help, she says. SEO Werkz helped Clarity Skin plug in the correct words on their website to increase their Google search rankings, and the company has already seen results.
"Our patients referring to us from Google itself has probably increased 20% to 30%, easily, since we started working with SEO Werkz. I would recommend them to any small business — or even a large business," Leany said.
"It has brought in those patients and those customers to us. It's increased our call flow as well as our patient flow. It is worth every cent that we pay for it."
Cultivating a long-term relationship
It's not just marketing knowledge that helps SEO Werkz earn the trust of hundreds of customers. For Neal Bingham, co-owner of Altius Mortgage, the best part about working with SEO Werkz "without question is the people."
After being in business for 15 years, Bingham said that Altius Mortgage had worked with several frustrating marketing companies. They needed someone who could back up their prices by delivering on promised results. Enter Paul Staten from SEO Werkz.
"Paul gained our trust simply by performing," Bingham said. "He's somebody that I can trust and somebody that I can count on to do exactly what he says he will. Honestly, the dynamic was fantastic."
Bingham added that Paul and the rest of the SEO Werkz team exceeded their expectations and would consistently over-deliver on what they said they could do. Their consistent communication provides confidence and peace of mind.
"I'm not wondering what's happening with our SEO or with our media," Bingham said. "They're reaching out to me consistently to share that information, so I'm not in the dark."
For anyone who asks him about doing business with SEO Werkz, Bingham has a simple response for that.
"I generally just talk to them about how long they've earned my relationship with them, which is many years," he said. "I don't even know how long it's been, but it's been good and continues to be so."
The longevity of the relationship speaks for itself.
