What are some good organizations an SEO company can join that are strong trust signals?
-
We are working on a website redesign, and want to prominently include some trust signals that help people feel comfortable with us. We're including logos of a few places we've guest posted, and also the BBB and local chamber of commerce.
Do you have any other ideas on logos we can include that are good trust signals? Any associations or organizations we could join?
We are a trustworthy company, we just want a way to communicate that visually, and it seems organization seals and logos are the way to go.
Thanks!

I agree, BBB is a definite must. $400 is peanuts for that seal on your website and the trust it builds for you in a user's unconscious mind.
-
We do have a couple of clients that would look good there, yes - we'll see who's permission we have to put there. Thanks
-
Hadn't heard of SEMPO before, look cool - thanks! Also didn't think about the Google & Bing seals, we'll have to get those.
-
Good idea on the Authorize.net seal. We have an Authorize.net account, but didn't think to use it as a trust symbol. Now that I look at the seal, it looks pretty good and will probably be a nice addition to that section - thanks!
-
Thank you, Todd!

We use the BBB, personally I love it. Spending $400.00 is a small price for more trust on a site.
-
We use the "Authorize Verified Merchant" as a trust logo..... plus you can put up something like.... 45,000 satisfied customers in 2011.
I have been thinking about BBB because it would give me a trust logo and a link from their site to mine. The cost is about $400. Anbody have any strong opinions on BBB?
-
I would see about adding some secure logos via Verisign or McAfee.
And do you have any well know brand names you could display as clients?
-
SEMPO would be a good start. Add into that things like Google Adwords, Google Analytics and Bing AdCenter certifications

SEO Guidelines for Partner Links
We decided to follow an aggressive strategy with cross linking. We have cross linked all all the 6 different brands just above the header of a News Portal. You could see what i mean here www.in.gr

Do you think that i should enable the nofollow so as not to get penalized by Google. We tend to use the same cross network linking scheme (in the header) for all branded sites. Google’s guidance on link schemes doesn’t specifically address these types of partner links, which don’t really fit the mold for “excessive link exchanging.” Thoughts appreciated.0 -

Can not get the ranking needle to move even after a year with a US based SEO company
Hello community, I have spent the last 16 months spending lots of money on our USA Based SEO company and on content. For some reason. The powers who may be at Google are not giving us any love. I am beginning to become very dissapointed after all of our efforts. We did have a link penalty a year ago however that has long ago been removed. We have been doing everything our SEO company has asked us but the needle is not moving. Any ideas for us? http://tinyurl.com/n2yoeyn Thank you in advance. Chris
