San Deigo SEO Unprofessional

I've written before about Doug Cooper, a self proclaimed SEO, there's no stopping this guy, although he gave up his hold on the domain name of a ex-client(after we reported him to Icann and godaddy, his unprofessional was a shock to this real SEO professional. I came into contact chiropractor who was being ripped off by this SEO cowboy, so agreed to help him get control back of his domain name and blog. Although Doug Cooper never gave access it the blog, after we reported him to icann for holding a domain name of a clients, he did surrender the website name. About being unprofessional though, this guy takes the cake, simple emails requesting he give access back to a domain name, was replied to in several long involved emails, where he not only outlined, but also gave long explanations of how this client had wronged him, telling personal information about his client, something he had not right or reason to do, we only ever read the first couple of lines, and would reply that all we were only interested in getting was the domain name back into the control of his client, where it was supposed to have been in the first place. This poor client, paid over $2000 and since this seo cowboy never gave the logins to the blog, all this ex-client got was 3 months hosting, the blog is still locked, so we rebuilt it, but changing the wording to actually making it SEO friendly. Just a word of warning, Check out your seo before you start forking out your money. Regards Lynn International SEO based in Hillcrest, San Diego, Southern California

3 Top Ways to Search Engine Optimization

This is an interesting article about SEO, don't know I agree with it all, but one good point in there... lynny

The track of the number of websites on the World Wide Web is a Herculean task. And searching for a particular website in this jungle of websites is an even harder task. To make your site stand out you must have your site search engine optimized. Here are three top ways to search engine optimization or SEO.
First way to search engine optimization is to make a good professional website in which the content is updated regularly and the content is search engine optimized. This can be done by giving some consideration to the keyword and keyword density in the word content. The search engine detects the website that is keyword rich and regularly updated.
Second way to get search engine optimized is the use of RSS feed. By the RSS feed you can have your website link to all the major sites and have your updated content sent to the subscribed users immediately. Also this will give your website a dynamic nature which in turn will increase your search engine rating. The use of RSS feed also give your website a professional look that will help you increase your public presence.
Third way to go for search engine optimization is to submit your website link to the search engines and web directories. You can also pay for some keywords that best describe your website. This will help you improving your search engine rating. Here the keyword should be chosen carefully as you need to pay for the keywords. So make a list of keywords and then bid on the keywords according to the applicability list of the keyword.

SEO for Several Similar Websites

Doing search engine optimization for more than one website, always costs less than it would doing SEO for 1 website times how many websites there are. That's confusing I guess, so look at this example. A client has 5 hotels in various parts of the world, they have one big website and 5 smaller websites for each of the hotels 6 websites altogether. If I had 6 individual motels approach me, and say we decided on $3500 for each website, you could think that the owner of the 6 websites could expect to pay $21,000 perhaps more since one website is a bigger. But no, 6 websites that have a similar theme and working on them at the same time would cost nowhere near $21,000 I in fact just did a quote for this example, and the total was $14,000.... so in fact almost 2 websites will be free. And the seo on all websites will be better, worth more than if I had done them individually. I'm also working with a local dentist who is having 3 websites rebuilt and extensive local seo done, there are a lot of other work being done for this client, but his bill is still less than what it would have cost for 3 individual websites, support sites, and extensive local SEO.

SEO work quickly in search engine

The next blog post, I posted about 75 minutes ago, http://seointernetmarketingseo.blogspot.com/2009/05/san-diego-seo-rip-off-holding-domain.html and already a search for Doug Cooper seo San Diego That post ranks 5th on page one. That's just proof of how quickly any seo work, or changes to a blog or website can get into search engines. How long will it stay ranked that well, who knows, but I'll keep writing about this seo cowboy until I think enough people know about him, and at least can make an informed decision about working with him. When you are considering using an seo you should check them out first. Since non of his burnt clients, and I have spoken to a couple already are willing to post about their bad experiences, doesn't mean they are as great as they say they are. I came to edit this post, I originally posted it at 12:37:00 PM and it was already in google at 1.12 35 minutes, post to in google results.... now Regards Lynn Brown SEO San Diego International SEO based in Hillcrest, San Diego, Southern California

San Diego SEO rip-off holding domain name

My last post was about a bad seo in San Diego, http://seointernetmarketingseo.blogspot.com/2009/05/seo-san-diego-2000-for-3-months-seo.html the plot thickens, although this seo charged this client $2000 to create this blog I spoke about in that post, now this SEO is threatening to hold the domain name he brought for the client. When I say hold, I mean keep it and use it to another unsuspecting client. He's also not going to give his client the blog he created, which would only take a couple of minutes to download, zip up and send to the client.... this sux bigtime. The domain name is a good one seowise it's www.painreliefsd.com the sd at the end is for San Diego, so this seo cowboy could reuse this generic domain name for many clients, at the moment it's still being used for www.mairschiropractic.com I wonder how many times this seo cowboy is going to use this name and for how many clients. My client a chiropracter in Mission Valley, was reluctant to give me this cowboys name, but doing a few searches, I found out this rippoff SEO's name is Doug Cooper and his company is freshcutinteractive.com if you are considering using him, I suggest you contact the chiropracter above and ask him for a reference, I'll be doing some checking around about him myself. If you are already one of his clients, and are happy enough with your seo results, make sure you ask this guy to transfer any domains he has brought for you to you. Transferring domain names is VERY EASY and should not cost anymore that $20, we do it for free for our clients, but that's just because we don't believe in this kind ripoff, and so we don't buy names for our clients at all, we help them to buy their own names.

SEO San Diego $2000 for 3 months SEO Cowboy

I have yet another seo client, a new client, this time a chiropractor who operates down in Mission Valley. He's been burnt by an seo cowboy here in San Diego. SEO cowboys make me so mad, it's so annoying to have these sleazy SEO's give SEO's in general a bad name. This SEO Cowboy Charges $2000 for 3 months SEO services, a far enough price you might think, and it is a good price for what this SEO on the surface has done, the results after a couple of weeks... So what did this SEO Cowboy from San Diego do? Built a website, which is I guess ok looking, no I don't, the pages aren't ok, no graphics at all, no text formatting, just a dark brown site, (Brown for a site about health and pain relief, I don't think so) this pretty "home built" looking website was 13 webpages again nothing special, (in fact darn boring pages) but 13 webpages. Initial less than basic SEO. Whats else is wrong with that you may wonder? Darn near everything!!
  • The content for all the pages has been copied and pasted from other websites on the internet.
  • Pages have so called references from Patients, they may have been partly true, but they had been doctored or faked, in a lame attempt at SEO.
  • Links off site. there are several links to other websites that aren't necessary. (except the text was an exact copy from these other websites) Some of these links opened in the same window.
  • There's a novice SEO theory that "If you repeat any keywords or a phrase on a webpage or webpages enough you will probably rank ok for that exact phrase". But there only so many times a website visitor wants to read a phrase on a website, this sleazy SEO used the same phrase an average of 20 times on every page.
  • The site itself was built on a popular Free blog template site, so there was absolutely no skills whatsoever required to build.
  • On this SEO's website they gloat about some of the SEO jobs they have done, and the results of their work, 2 places I rang, said they had never heard of this SEO cowboy, and 2 other's had said they had used him and were very upset with the results, I'm actually discussing with both these ex-clients about me doing real SEO on their sites...
Content: Coping wording from another website is illegal, unless you have the express premission from the writer of the words, this is often not the website owner. Apart from the legalities of copying text from another website, the website you copied the text from will always rank higher than yours once the search engines search results settle down. Any changes to a webpage will usually rank highly for a couple of weeks, then usually within a month the rank of the webpage will start slipping until it settles at it's new position in search engine results.** Patients References It's very obvious the references have been doctored or added too, and reflects badly on the Chiropractor, rather than the SEO that faked them. So a good chiropractor that has done some wonderful work with car accident patients, sports injuries, long term pain patients has lost credibility because this SEO Cowboy doesn't know his stuff and added . Links Links to another website, should be discouraged unless they link back to your site, which is standard practice. Links offsite should always open in a new window, otherwise you have just lost a potential customer. Keywords Any real seo knows that simply repeating particular keywords or a phrase on a webpages does gaurantee your visitors will see the those words 20 times each time they open another page and think they are overkill, but this does not guarantee a site will rank highly for those words. This cowboy SEO used a particular phrase "San Diego Chiropractic" 260 times at least one the site, and yet a search for those words in that order without, the site doesn't show in the first 10 pages of google search worst case senario should have had the site ranked at #5 on the 1st page, with the quotation marks which at the worst case senario should have had the site ranked at #5 on the 1st page, again the site didn't show in the 1 st 100 search engine placements. This is an outragously bad SEO results. If seo had of been done correctly like I would have or will do, this Chiropractors website will rank or should rank about 8th at worse case. To get to 1st for that particular phrase, since it so highly sort after would cost about $5-$8000, to rank well for say 30 other less sort after phrases, which would net possibley 6 times more visitors and consequently new patients, would cost about half that.... Changes on webpages. **This fact that any changes to a webpage will result in a temporary high ranking in search engines, is often used by cowboy or sleazy SEO's to trick their clients into believing that the SEO has worked, you really can't tell the final search engine position of SEO for about 6 weeks after the results are made. eg: a change on a webpage may result in these sorts of results. #2 A week later #3 2 weeks later, #4 3 weeks later. #13 4 weeks later #20 5 weeks later #23 final position without more seo Using Free Blogs Templates. While there's nothing wrong with using a blog template, they are notoriously idiot proof, not saying children are idiots, but I have seen websites built by 7-8 years olds that have flair or are more attractive. What I am saying is you can't charge a client as much to build a website on a blog template where menu's and layout are just a case of checking out unchecking a box that says do you want this, or that, and then copying and pasting the page content from another site, the chiroprater supplied they links or they came from his own mature site. the whole site would have taken an experienced webdesigner, maybe 2 hours to complete, with 2 coffee breaks, but a site like that can't be compared to website that has been built by a professional web designer, and the SEO thats is supposed to have been done on the site, doesn't even require an SEO cowboy to have read one chapter of an seo book.... more like about 3 paragraphs read out of context. I looked at this blog website just 7 days ago, when I was first contacted, and while it was doing ok in searches then, already those same searches for the main part, don't show this site in the results for the 1st 100 results. 2 out of the 10 search I did, faired a little better, both were at ranked 4th 7 days ago, now one is at 42nd place and one at 54rd place in search engine results, this is the worst drop in placements so quickly I have ever witnessed. When you have been bitten by an SEO cowboy like this one, please don't think that all seo's are the same, there are a few of us, ring me at 619 269 572 or email me at help1@seobycanz.com I'd be happy to discuss your websites ranking in search engines and if it can improved. Regards Lynn Ok, enough of a rave, seo cowboys give us good SEO's a bad name, and there are at least 30 seo cowboys to every half way ok SEO. Us professional SEO's are as rear as hens teeth. And don't be fooled, don't believe you get what you pay for, I've worked on a website where they owner had paid almost 50k and had it doing better in search engines on a stable bases for over a year now for $5,500 International SEO based in Hillcrest, San Diego, Southern California
