SEO Success Stories

August 5, 2010
In business since 2007, and I've never seen the economy like this. I needed visibility but sales are down and the last time I spent $650 on a postcard mail out to 1,000 people, it didn't seem to have any effect. And there are 63,000 more people on the Peninsula that I didn't reach.

Websites

scared me because of the investment involved and what if it didn't work? I was on the ropes and I'd heard a bunch of stories about being invisible on the internet unless you paid out every month for advertising. The internet is full of terms like search engine

Nothing could have been easier or more professional !
