Another SEO flop to report, this time from Ranksharks. My kingdom for
an SEO company that can actually improve your organic traffic.
At least the staff who wrote the 4 posts per week were fluent in
English, so this is an improvement over my previous SEO experience. But,
they often promoted the wrong products, and I had to notify them to let
them know they were posting about the wrong courses.
There was no transparent reporting, and I had to ask repeatedly for
monthly reports that showed where I started and where they’d brought me,
and in 5 months, only got a report once.
I had very specific questions about the SEO history of my site,
video-tutorials.net, which they
promised to answer before I signed the contract, but afterward I could
not get anyone to provide me the answers needed. For example, prior to
Google’s “Panda” update in May 2013, I had organic search engine ranking
for 200+ keywords; then this suddenly dropped off and I haven’t been
able to figure out why. I don’t know if they just couldn’t figure it out
despite having promised me to take care of this very important problem,
or they just didn’t give a damn, since I purchased their entry level
package.
RankSharks promises major organic search engine ranking improvements
due to the fact they post links to your website via your google account.
Unfortunately I’m unhappy to report that this doesn’t work to increase
your traffic. Over their 5 months of work for me, I had absolutely no
meaningful increase in organic traffic or sales.
I think I’ve given up on SEO companies!
Kind regards,
Rosanna from VTN
