By paying you guys...?

By paying you guys each month will you be making my website more visible and accessible or will you only point out the mistakes I should fix?

Wouldn't That Be Cool.
When I was paying 50,000.00 to 75,000.00 dollars per month to Google for AdWords they wouldn't give me any help with my natural search ranking either. I would get Christmas presents, and had my own personal Google adviser. They would call me every month and ask me if there was any way Google could help my business. Every month I would say "Yes, give me some insight into ranking better in the natural search results."
I found SEOmoz and started reading. Reading. Reading the comments after the posts. I started taking some of the things I learned and applying them to my business website. Taking my own future in my own hands, learning some new skills. I signed up for Pro. I attended seminars. I got involved.
It took a while, but I went from page 28 to page one. (yes really page 28). Since then I have never been off of the first page for any of my relevant target search terms.
What's it worth? Well in my own business, it means a saving of more than $1.5 million in a couple years and a new SEO business. It also is the difference between being IN business and being OUT of business in this economy.
Good news, you found the right place to get the best information on the planet to HELP you promote your own business. A STEAL at even the premium prices.
You can however, just pay someone to look after your business website, make sure it ranks well, fix mistakes, point out things you should do different. You can check out some of the best HERE.

Hello Stephon,
Nope unfortunately SEOmoz doesn't provide that kind of service, I know how you feel, I think most webmasters do feel the same way. I bet you're thinking"with all the information I have on my table where will I start?". While keyword research is already an handful in getting a good ranking there are two things that I think would be safe to assume altogether.
In optimizing your site you need two things. links and content.
Start with content and then links will come after.
Message me if you need more help ^_^

Stephon,
I will say that the changes you need to make are more often simple than hard depending on your platform. Also, if you are looking to hire, SEOmoz has a section for that as well.

Hi Stephon,
At $99, the monthly cost of the SEOmoz pro membership would be insanely cheap if it actually performed automated SEO.
However, if you are running a business that benefits from an easily discoverable website (almost any business!), and you've not yet performed any SEO then there is almost certainly going to be a very high ROI on doing so.
If your budget doesn't reach to hiring an SEO company, then you could consider learning the basics yourself. The book "The Art of SEO", combined with the tools on offer at SEOmoz could get you doing the basics yourself quite quickly, and if you stuck at it you could move on to the advanced stuff.
Otherwise, there are many great SEO companies out there, but be sure to do thorough homework before you go for it with anyone.
Best of luck!

Thanks for your reply. I was hoping the answer was different tho!

Even though I'm not a SEOmoz employee, I think I can answer this answer on behalf of them.
SEOmoz will not make your website more visible or accessible as a direct result of your payment. If you decide to take a PRO membership with the site however, you'll get access to premium resources that will enable you to take your website to the next level with regards to SEO, and keep increasing that level over time.
By using the (premium) tools that are available to PRO members (such as the campaigns that you can use to monitor weekly crawls of your selected websites), you can see very clearly which mistakes you've made on these sites and what you can do to improve your SEO.

Silly Question still - Because I am paying high to google adwords is it possible google can't rank me high in organic?
Hello All, My ecommerce site gone in penalty more than 3 years before and within 3 months I got message from google penalty removed. Since then till date my organic ranking is very worst. In this 3 years I improved my site onpage very great. If I compare my site with all other competitors who are ranking in top 10 then my onpage that includes all schema, reviews, sitemap, header tags, meta's etc, social media, site structure, most imp speed, google page speed insight score, pingdom, w3c errors, alexa rank, global rank, UI, offers, design, content, code to text raito, engagement rate, page views, time on site etc all my sites always good compare to competitors. They also have few backlinks I do have few backlinks only. I am doing very high google adwords and my conversion rate is very very good. But do you think because I am paying since last 3 year high to google because of that google have some setting or strategy that those who perform well in adwords so not to bring up in organic? Is it possible I can talk with google on this? If yes then what will be the medium of conversation? Pls give some valuable inputs I am performing very much in paid so user end site is very very well. Thanks!

Is it worth paying to add an article to another website?
I have done some research into the types of sites that my competitors have inbound links from and upon closer inspection it appears that in many cases they would have had to pay for this kind of exposure. I already do a lot of guess blogging (for free) in an attempt to get my content out there, but is it worth paying to add my content (with backlinks) to established sites with good Domain Authority or PageRank? I, as I'm sure do a lot of you, have been inundated throughout my SEO career with offers to pay £X for this and £X for that. What is a good rate to pay? Is it dependent on what you expect to get back or is there an industry norm? Happy for general chatter on this as I want to try it but if I am to get the budget from my manager I need to be certain it will pay dividends and is worthwhile.

Local SEO Plus Performance Based Pay Per Call Multiple Phone Numbers
In my learning about Local SEO recently, I keep reading the importance of NAP (name, address, phone number). But what if you are only using different phone numbers because you are tracking pay per call. How would set up my Local SEO strategy? The newest phone numbers are NOT going to match all the websites, social media and previous listing in directories, etc. Is this a bad move? Should I suggest that we do one or the other going forward with other clients but not both? Thanks a lot...

Blog content - what to do, and what to avoid in terms of links, when you're paying for blog content
Hi, I've just been looking at a restaurant site which is paying food writers to put food news and blogs on their website. I checked the backlink profile of the site and the various bloggers in question usually link from their blogs / company websites to the said restaurant to help promote any new blogs that appear on the restaurant site. That got me wondering about whether this might cause problems with Google. I guess they've been putting about one blog live per month for 2 years, from 12/13 bloggers who have been linking to their website. What would you advise?

How is this guy beating me?
I thought I was really starting to understand SEO, especially after finding this site. But I must be missing something. BAsed upon linkscape I am head and shoulders above www.georgiauncontesteddivorce.com a competitor site to my site www.uncontesteddivorce-nyc.com. But his site outranks mine for the keyword uncontested divorce lawyer. Well he beats me with 10 facebook shares versus 4 but on every other domain metric and page metric I am much higher. My site is only about a year old, but I can't imagine that this is what is going on. Anybody got any ideas? Thx Paul
