Afternoon All,

Never really got into SEO, I'm aware what it does etc but in my ignorance I always look at it as a kind of Black Art - a way for a company to tease money out of me for not doing an awful lot... I realise that this is probably not true for companies in the main but that's how I feel about it.

However I am aware that as a company that specialises in something quite unique I should really appear on the first page of Mr. Google's site... and I don't.

So I just rec'd a cold call from a company called First Found - offering me first page/First link SEO for what felt like an attractive price.

6 month contract for £295 as a set up fee and the £49.95 a month with 'unlimited' key phrases.

Does anyone have any experience of this company or what it is that seems to be a fair price to be paying? Be great to learn some more!

Cheers!

So is this something you do? Your phrasing suggests so...?

Who do we rate as being "worth it" then? Who should I be looking at in terms of good value?

Blimey I'm learning a lot here!!

Thanks so much for your replies! I spoke to First Found yesterday and said that having done some research into them that by and large the reviews were non too positive although I note on here that one response has said they were fine but crawling the web they don't come out too well!

I'm in the middle of a few things at present (as you may spot from other posts) but as soon as the world is a little calmer I shall definitely be following up properly on this thread, thanks again!
