How much does your service cost?

Why do I have to continue to pay monthly for this service?
Many aspects of the SEO process require steady work over an extended period of time. A link building campaign can range anywhere from 6 months to several years depending on the keywords and their level of competition. Link building is by far the most important of the ongoing processes and must be maintained in order to keep your rankings high.
What is the difference between white hat SEO and black hat SEO?
White hat SEO is the practice of conforming to all rules and regulations for good practices set in place by the major search engines. Black hat SEO practices are those that are ethically “grey” and may not be approved by the big three search engines. Black hat techniques often include the use of link farms and keyword stuffing. seoTuners is 100% white hat and none of our practices will ever place your website at risk. The safety and credibility of our clients’ websites is always our number one priority.
What are link farms?
A link farm is a group of organized websites with many links pointing at other websites within the same space. A link farm is used to spam search engine indexes and gain higher ranks for the sites in the farm. Link farms are not a search engine approved method of increasing ranking, and joining a link farm could be potentially risky to your site. Many sub-par SEO services and “too good to be true” SEO websites will deceptively use link farms to get you ranked. seoTuners does NOT employ the use of link farms as it is a black hat practice, and we stick to 100% white hat tactics with links built naturally through manual submissions.
What is keyword stuffing?
Keyword stuffing is the practice of overusing a particular keyword on a website with the expectation that it will increase the rankings of that keyword. Keyword stuffing is often done in a deceptive manner so that the extra content cannot be seen by visitors to a site, but still read by the search engines. Keyword stuffing puts your website at risk with search engines, often resulting lower rankings or getting de-indexed altogether. seoTuners does not employ the use of black hat practices such as keyword stuffing, instead focusing white hat techniques and achieving keyword density by employing professional writers to develop relevant content pertaining to your keywords.
How soon will I see results?
A well planned and well managed SEO campaign takes a little bit of time. That being said, it is possible to start to see some results within the first month. Search engines reward consistency in SEO efforts which means you can usually expect to see more significant movement within the first 6 months.
Is there any guarantee?
Guarantees are a delicate subject as on the internet they walk a fine line between quality assurance and cheesy fly by night gimmicks. Here is our approach: You do not have to sign a long term contract for us to begin work on your project and can pay for SEO services month to month if you wish, allowing you the freedom to walk away at any time you don’t see a value in what we do. If by the sixth consecutive month of paid service you have not seen any ranking improvements on your keywords, we will continue to work at no charge for two additional months. Bottom line, no results in 6 months, we keep working for 2 months free. This is the most legitimate way that we can stand behind the quality of our service.
How can I track the success of my campaign?
This is the easy part. We proactively send you ranking reports every month. This allows you to easily monitor how your keywords are performing and lets you audit the work that we are doing. All of our SEO services are completely transparent.
What are the terms on a service agreement?
We are proud to offer our services without any long term contracts. We can do this because we know there is value in what we do AND we know that you will clearly see that value as well. We don’t need a contract to keep you from running away from us.
