Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I check and verified my account with Disqus and also contact them as well. Today I try to post all the comment the mark as spam on Disqus individually to a couple site and they accept my comment right away. For the Facebook profile I use to company profile. Would it be better to use personal profile?

Would it be better to signup individual website to answer questions or post comments? Or Login with Disqus/ Facebook is okay. I use Disqus and now I realize that they mark all my answers as spam.

We will definitely try to improve our article and looking for help from editor.

Thank you. It might sound stupid to ask how should I approach the owners the site?

What Website could we submit the article and be posted? I work on articles and summit them to the site like articlecity, cbs baltimore but they have never get posted. Is that mean my articles aren't good enough?

Thank you Erica, I did not know your site had this option

I really love the idea of learning this, and I a pretty good at picking up new concepts.  I think this was just too much to take it on all at once, especially while juggling the rest of the business issues and my two young kids

What would be an average consulting fee?  You said to get a consultant in, does it need to be a physical visit, most of this should be able to be taught via a remote session, yes?

And last, if I am going to go the self taught method, I have one question that really has been baffling me:

Backlinks and website authority seem to be really important.  Getting people to talk about my website seems to be the best way to get that.  How in the heck do I get people talking about a cleaning service?  Sure they might refer us to a friend, but what could i possibly put on my website to make it exciting?  I thought of putting up hints and tips of how to clean, but realistically I can not come up with enough on my own to get people to follow me.  How bad (black hat) is it to copy others articles to re-post?  Or any other ideas would be appreciated.

Thank you again for all your replies, they are appreciated.

We are a medium sized cleaning service in the Baltimore area and really need help with our website and organic listings.  We used to be on googles 1st page before penguin came around and it killed our listing.  We have survived for the last few years because of our good reputation and referrals.

We want to grow now but have been finding it VERY difficult to hire a SEO company/person.  There are so many scammers out there and the only companies I can find REAL reviews on are in the 10k or more range.

I have been reading here and elsewhere trying to learn SEO myself a bit, but finding it a bit overwhelming.

Any advice, or could anyone recommend an honest SEO firm that a mid sized company can afford.

Thank you in advanced
