Would you pay this much for SEO?

    I often get spam emails from SEO companies. This one made me laugh. How can anybody get away with charging these prices?

    If people are willing to pay that much I'm in the wrong game :cool:

    Maybe they offer better service than a bunch of the people on here do? Of course, if that was the case, they wouldn't be spamming you..

    This board always amazes me at how cheaply people can offer stuff like that if it's not an automated spamming program they use

    You can do urself in less time and minimum efforts.
    There are many sites, from where you can get free listing directories, and use the roboform auto fill software.

    It is too high. If the directory is PR8 above, then might be OK

    yes prices are very high but you can ask them the list of dis or sites they will get links to your website form. You will get more clear idea if they are just spamming you or not. I have seen many guys paying very high amount then what you have mentioned just because they don't know SEO world and just get their figures burned.

    The prices are high for the service. SEO is not inexpensive, but the person/company is quoting prices for generic items that are likely to add no value to your site.

    I know people investing thousands of dollars on SEO.
    Well, this one is a bit on the high side. I know people paying $800 for the SEO of their website. I offer SEO services, like now im only doing blog comment (providing high PR links -PR1-PR6).
    People buy packages starting from $100 to $200.

    Well, it all depends on the service. If the service is good then one will not hesitate to purchase a package from you. SEO services where you pay high will definitely increase your SERP. With the package i'm selling you will definitely gain SERP. My website's keyword jumped to first page..actually on 3rd position. And the price for that was $400..and you must keep working on your keywords..this is very important. So, investing on SEo is definitely a way to help gain SERP and eventually help you gain traffic and if you have an ecommerce website, you will surely get increase in sales :D

    Cheers

    Why would anyone, other than someone who has money to burn, pay for SEO it is easy to do, laborious, but easy. You could pay someone $3 an hour to sit submitting to article directories and making comments on blogs and forumsand get a hell of a lot more for your money!

    I have seen companies asking $100/month to submit your site to the search engines.

    This is an awesome business model IMO, I will start doing it locally. You can make 10s of thousands dollars per month offering SEO services to small businesses, if you know where and how to target potential clients.
