Be wary of any SEO company that guarantees you a #1 placement on Google

Posted by Danny Bermant - 27 Aug 2010

One of my clients this morning forwarded me an email that they received from iBusiness Promotions guaranteeing them a #1 placement on Google. Their website states that:


"we guarantee that your website will be found in the regular (unpaid) top 10 results on Google for the keywords of your choice. No catch, no strings attached"

  • Rule No.1: No one can guarantee you a #1 position on Google. Google themselves make this clear in their own guidelines.
  • Rule No.2: Don’t buy from anyone who promotes their services via an unsolicited email. Spam is unethical as well as illegal. Would you trust a company to promote who uses unethical business practices to promote your website?
  • Rule No.3: This is probably the most important rule of all. Getting to the first page of Google doesn’t mean your website will get more visitors of even more business.

I love my iphone, but it's not the only smartphone out there

Posted by Danny Bermant - 15 Jun 2010
I have to say, the new iphone is pretty awesome. With 3 months left on my existing iphone contract, I fully intend to upgrade, but in the 15 months since I bought my phone, something has changed. The iphone no longer stands out the way it once did. There is a lot more competition, and some of the handsets out there are really giving Apple a run for its money. Just take a look at these: http://www.htc.com/europe/product.aspx.
 
Yes Apple may still have by far the most apps, but other systems such as Google's Android are catching up. Couple this with the fact that Apple STILL don't support Flash and it's no longer clear to me that the iphone will continue to be the "Rolls Royce" of smartphones.

Your page load time may affect your google ranking

When businesses go to the trouble of building a website, how many of them pay attention to how quickly the pages load? They should do.
