There’s a specific SEO company here in the Philippines that is continuing to damage the Philippine SEO community as a whole. They’re ranking first page for the keyword ‘SEO Philippines’ but their website looks spammy as hell. You’ll figure out who it is for sure. All you need to do is click through all the websites.
The funniest thing that happened to me is that this company sent me a demand letter. Apparently my SEO Philippines article was ranking for their brand name – on the fourth place of the first page! They sent me a demand letter to take it down – so that’s that.
I assume that it turned off tons of potential clients already so they resorted to political means to get to put the article down. I don’t mind – I didn’t intend for the article to rank for their brand name anyway.
Which makes it all the funnier. The SEO company can’t even do their own ORM for their branding.
ORM is much like SEO – only done with more suave, tact and effort. It’s like SEO x 10. It’s a big bad joke that this company can’t even manage their own search engine brand rankings and they’re doing SEO for other people and companies. It’s everything that me and my company stands for.
Highly unethical, highly abusive, highly misdirecting. It’s all smokes and mirrors when you get them as your SEO company. Your company’s SEO campaign is standing on sand. A little shake and it’ll all tumble down.
I should know. Some of their clients came to SEO Hacker asking for help – and we had to clean their act up.
If you’d like to directly know the company’s brand name, it starts with “I” and ends with “SEO”.
Common sense will fill up the rest.
Hey Sean,
LOL. I kinda know which… and they milk those footer links on their clients sites like no tomorrow.
Looking at archive.org for your page, I confirmed who they are LOL
Do they really have anything on you? Is that stupid cybercrime law really applicable for that?
I found another one, because they kept link dropping on my sites. I followed it and found this – http://denseymour.com/shopping-mall-marketing-seo/
For Ayala. Really? Sigh…. and it’s not just them!
Dennis,
Dirty world we live in. And the owner is supposedly a Christian too. Sigh. That’s why lots of people in our world today look differently on people who claim they’re Christians.
I know what you mean… but they’ll just argue that they see nothing wrong with it and that it’s just work – or blame it on their interns. 🙂
I take it that you’ve met a lot of these local providers during events and they preach about being ethical and white? lol
Not these guys, no. I’ve met a few handful. They’re not really the type to support SEO Hacker’s events 🙂
