A couple of months ago I put a call out looking for SEO peeps to work with. I interviewed a bunch of people, five of which came from the same local SEO agency. And after speaking with each of the candidates, one thing was clear… that agency sucked. Bad! Time after time I heard stories of practices that went against everything I believed in SEO and business in general. To me it was clear that these guys were crappy operators. But the general lack of understanding of good SEO practice means many others can't make this assessment. So with that in mind, I put together a list of 5 signs of SEO agencies that suck.

You hit the nail on the head with this list. We like to be clear with our clients on the process we go through to get them a good SEO service and to let them know how hard it is to achieve good SEO which puts a value to our labor. You cant guarantee them a certain ranking because you have to go against their competitors and every vertical is different some more competitive then others. The more honest you are the more the client is willing to put faith into your service and that keeps our world going around.
