Rates Fees and Policies

Our rates and fees are commensurate with our level of expertise, our experience (since 2000), our professional abilities and our commitment to your success as an SEO and niche marketing expert.

The rates we charge are within the mid-range level of comparable competitive rates charged today by our colleagues who offer similar skill levels, and knowledge and experience. We work with you to keep fees affordable and offer a generous payment plan as well as offering bundled services with discounts when and where necessary in order to work with you.

We do not offer “cheap” plans or free services, however. If you find a lawyer, a plumber, or other such similar professional that you want to work with, you do not ask them to work for free or for less than their fee. Our business works the same………. we can put your business “on the map” with all the major search engines and get your website traffic up where it needs to be for success, therefore our service rates stand.

This having been said, we are committed to working WITH you, WITH your budget, and therefore will be happy to discuss your budget and give you a more than reasonable quote for our services!

It’s Your Investment

We expect our clients to be willing to make an investment in their website and their online presence. Too many people undervalue their website and don’t realize that by doing so, they are de-valuing their own revenue producing potential and railroading their own business.

It’s Your Business and Online Presence

Your website is YOUR business, whether it is a stand along online presence or an accompanying presence to a brick and mortar establishment. You need to be committed to your business and be willing to budget and allocate funds for this investment.

How many times have potential clients told us how much they are spending on Google Adwords or other online advertising mechanisms and how it’s draining the budget / not “doing anything” for the business / still not generating any traffic and sales, etc. etc.  yet they are not willing to allocate adequate funds to the one thing that will make or break them on the Internet ~ the improvement of their website. If I had just a dime for every one of those, I’d be a very rich woman.

What We Do For Your Investment

In return for your investment in your business, we are committed without reserve to providing you with the highest level of work and professionalism in order that you may experience a high ROI (Return On Investment) for your hard earned dollars.

We work very hard on your behalf to bring you the maximum search engine visibility we can for your niche market through expert SEO practices (white hat only), quality page content suggestions, quality website copyrighting, in depth keyword research for your niche market, aggressive yet organic marketing, and more.

Cheap and Free Websites

Free websites, cheap websites and family / friend designed websites will all give you back exactly what you have put into them ~ nothing. A website is much more than just a pretty face. A website needs to be attractive, easy to navigate, have plenty of quality content, be search engine friendly and behind the scenes ~ be designed FOR the search engines. Without being designed for the search engines, it won’t be designed for people to find you, shoppers, and you won’t get traffic and sales. Hence you will not have any happy returns coming your way.

The Value of a Proven SEO and Niche Marketing Professional

Without the skill, knowledge and expertise of a proven professional behind that website, it’s destined to remain just another pretty face in a sea of millions. The websites we design for our clients come out of the Google sandbox 2 to 3 months earlier than the average website ~ which means a vastly high search engine visibility and more traffic early on for your website.

We start every client website off with excellent SEO and marketing so they can easily hit the ground running at launch and every client ends up in the top 10 and top 20 of Google for their chosen keywords. Of course, if clients decide after time goes by that they want to “handle the SEO” themselves they invariably see a major drop in traffic and search engine visibility. However the good news is they are always welcome back for a website rehabilitation!

It’s An Investment In Your Online Business You Will Not Regret

If your website is your business and you want it to succeed to it’s maximum potential you need to treat it in a businesslike way and with a healthy respect. Tap into your online revenue potential with a professionally designed, expertly optimized and marketed website that will leave your competition in your dust.

Take your online presence to the next level and contact us today to see what we can do for you! Budget a problem? We have very reasonable payment plans that may interest you.

Local New Jersey Businesses ~

We support our fellow New Jersey business owners all the way! If you are a New Jersey business local to our area and would like to schedule an in-house meeting with us to see how we can help you take your online business and Internet selling presence to the next level, simply give us a call and arrange a time. We are located in Hackensack New Jersey and are happy to meet with you if your business is located in Bergen, Passaic or Morris County, New Jersey. Our consulting fees are per hour. We require pre-payment in order to get you a slot on our appointment calendar. Here’s what you can expect from our consultation meeting:

• an in-depth analysis of what’s wrong with your current website
• a professional determination of what intensity of SEO your website will need
• analysis of your present online marketing scheme and how to cut costs
• why you do not need pay per click to gain valuable traffic and sales
• what needs to be done to make your website organic and search engine friendly

If you require us to do work on your website in your facility instead of remotely from our studio, our hourly fee of $100 remains in effect.  If you choose to let us handle your website we can put together an affordable package for you plus a payment plan.

Policies

Our policies are simple and we like to keep them that way.

Our Service Guarantee To You ~

• We stand behind our services, the quality of our services, our truthful representation of what you can expect, our professionalism, our timeline for project completion and the quality of work you can expect from us 110%.
• We communicate all things in writing to you ~ via email and via faxed proposal.
• We answer all emails in 24 hours or less, which is usually the case (the “or less” part)
• If we do have a phone conference, we email you a synopsis of the conversation afterwards as we DO take notes whilst conversing.
• We guarantee our sincerity and our strong desire to keep both of us on the same page and to explain things clearly.

What We Expect From You ~

• That you will ask ANY AND ALL questions that you may have as they come up, or compile them into groups in an email to us as many times as you deem fit in order that any concerns you may have will be addressed in a timely fashion. (FYI no question is stupid so if it’s nagging you, ASK)
• That you adhere to your agreed upon payment plan in a timely manner. If you put a credit card on file with us, we need to be able to charge it on the agreed upon day each month for services. If you are billed via invoice, payment is expected within two business days of receiving our invoice.
• That you make a concentrated and sincere effort to work with us when we ask for your input, opinions, likes, dislikes, preferences, business goals, etc. We ask all of this ONLY for the benefit of your business so we can represent your website and your business in the most positive way possible.
• To address ANY issues or problems you feel you are having with something we are doing for you as expediently as possible. We will do all we can do to address this immediately and work whatever it is out to our mutual satisfaction.

Refunds ~

Because we stand behind our work and guarantee our work 110% refunds are not an option. We guarantee you will be pleased with our services and the results you get from our services.

The Bottom Line ~

To guarantee top 10 positioning in the search engines is not only unethical but it is also completely ludicrous. It is impossible to realistically guarantee this as there are so many variables extending way beyond Google’s algorithms.

What we DO guarantee, however, that as long as you are open and receptive to our recommendations and are willing to work with us, you will see an impressive gain in traffic, search engine positioning and page rank over time. How much time? In our experience, with our efforts behind you, 3 to 6 months is completely reasonable. We’ll get you out of the “sandbox” faster and into the mainstream easily within that time.

The longer we work with you, and you with us, the better it gets. Feel free to peruse our Web Services information to your right and read about what we offer you and what we can do for you.
