    Beware of anyone that guarantees anything. We all try for the top spot but nothing is guaranteed.

    If they do, you can bet they are frauds and will steal your money. No company and I mean no company, can guarantee search engine placement. Stir away from such sales gimmicks.

    yes, but only after they have analyzed your domain , the number of search results, your site and your budget.
    Also , you have to pay them monthly in order to stay at that position.
    First page is pretty easy, first place is very hard.

    Many do but its all fake. On all top search engines webmaster guidelines page there is 1 line which will always say that nobody can guarantee you rankings.

    Its very difficult to provide a real guarantee unless your talking PPC ads.

    Due to the constant algorithm changes and updates, positioning on the natural listings can sometimes change on an hourly basis.

    When faced with the challenge by Clients, I provide them with live examples of what can be achieved followed up by testimonials from existing customers.

    There are many companies now offering SEO, some do offer guarantees others don't, i guess those that don't must provide solid evidence to the potential clients, to prove there genuine.

    IMO the only people who would really be capable of guaranteeing results, would have to access to the latest version on algorithm code, which is very unlikely.

    People by from People, establish trust and confidence and your half way there!

    Hello,

    If you have a company, maybe a good idea to promote a product is:

    Short time: Buy google adwords, Yahoo Overture, etc...
    Long Time: Work with any SEO company, make content, link exchange, buy some links, etc...

    When you have problem with your long time process, because sometime your site drop in Google, or they change the algo, you continue to earn some money with the short process....

    This is an idea :)
    My 2 cents,
    Jakomo

    professionals know that they can do it but don't guarantee.Cause if you don't own the system (google,yahoo) you can not guarantee anything.

    google writes the answer of this question on webmaster guides.

    nobody can guarantee being on the first position at google search.

    if somebody says this, i suggest you to run away from it

    If they guaranteed top 10, and top 10 gave as much $$$$$ as we know it does, wouldnt everyone be top 10 in viagra, real estate, or debt consolidation?

    My idea is this: you can't guarantee top 10 to 11 sites for the same keyword. With all the SEO companies guaranteeing top 10, it can't be done.


    Most of them just give you a guaranteed top 10 with your company name in it, etc.

    SEO Bangkok work on 50% down payment, 25% when the site hits the 1st page of google for the targetted keyword and the remaining 25% when the site is in the top 3 listings.

    many will say that they do but when you read the small print, top 10 guarantee refers to a keyword(s) being in one of the search engines. so those excluding google and yahoo

    I saw that some SEO companies offering top 10 on major search engines, when you look in the small print they state "we can usually obtain a top 10 place on MSN" - no mention of Google or Yahoo.

    I used to get a lot of calls from people offering guaranteed top placings, but for terms that they choose (which means with no competition and that nobody ever looks for! think 'timbuktu caravan rental') Then they can say 'look you're top of google' but why aren't you getting any more traffic? Well, somebody is happy...
