I hired a company who I thought was a Canadian company to perform SEO for my adult content website. Veda Soft Solutions Pvt. Ltd. http://www.vedasoftsolutions.com claimed they will devote 3 developers to work on my site at the cost of $200 a month. About a week later they had emailed me that the, so called, work that had been done. I reviewed the code and they had simply stuffed my ALT tags with keywords and created a sitemap page which was nothing more than copy of my landing page with 4 links on it. There weren't 3 developers working on this. It was just the one guy with rudimentary SEO knowledge. When I complained I asked for his phone number. He resisted for about a week and eventually he gave me his number in INDIA. When I demanded he call me as I was not going to call India, he left voice mail on my phone to which I could barely understand because of his heavy Indian accent. He claims in his emails his name is Robin Smith and that he sometimes visits the Toronto office. Yeah Right! He also insisted that I wait 3 months for the SEO results. I understand it takes time, however I am well aware that his approach is more likely to blacklisted than more SE traffic. I knew I had been scammed and discontinued the service with a demand for a refund of my $200. They will not return my emails. They are scam artists…
How did you pay for the service? Depending on the payment method, you may be able to contact the payment processor and reclaim the money. Unfortunately a great many of these SEO services are a scam. You need to do your due dilligence, and check the background of any service you do business with before handing over any money to them.
