How are all "those" successful companies achieving top 1st page rankings on search engines like google, yahoo!, Bing, and ask?



The Search Engine Store knows how some of them got there, because they're the ones that put 'em there. From small online shops to large corporations, they've proven themselves time after time and their clients couldn't be happier.



Read what a few said:



"We were targeting highly competitive single keywords for our B2B site. Though the traffic on those keywords were astounding, if we were to achieve 1st page rankings for them on google, yahoo!, Bing, or even just one of them, it would increase our business dramatically. The Search Engine Store got us there within 6 months of signing on and our traffic has jumped from 12k unique visits per month to over 40k. This goes without saying, we will continue using them for years to come."



Rob M.

B2B Corporation



"We needed a solution for our online presence so we could stay ahead of our competition and get more business leads from our website. Being a small local company looking for local business, The Search Engine Store recommended we hit up geo-targeted city keywords within our industry. Within 4 months we have been top 5 ranking in over 50 surrounding cities on google and at least 10-15 hot leads coming in per week. Needless to say, they rock!"



Jan C.

Warehouse Facility



"A print marketing company built our online shop with over 300 products. The company did not have much experience in Internet Marketing and very little in SEO. There wasn't much success because they sold us on the age-old saying, if you build it, they will come.

They didn't come until The Search Engine Store brought in their team of experts and revamped our site so the search engines could actually find us. Thanks solely to them, we now sell in the hundreds of thousands online every month. A mere fraction of what it cost us. My partner said it was the best investment we'd ever made! I couldn't agree more."

* My latest info. is that Ellis Booker may have just quit and may not have been fired. He was there ten years and may have been fed up, but I will keep trying. Mums the word from Willinger and Lundin on him.



* This blog post was brought to my attention after the last report went out and it is too funny not to pass on, especially on Friday the 13th.

Here was my Mercantec stunt back in January of 2001 when they planned to lay off people on a conference call.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++

01/05/2001

Version:
Scoop

1pm meeting at Mercantec

It is 11:55am and I just got a call about a company-wide meeting at 1pm at Mercantec, where it is quite possible that they will announce the layoffs of more than 20 of their 65 employees. There have been many closed door meetings over the last few weeks, so something is up and it's anticipated that today's meeting will reveal what that is.

Now here's where we can have a little fun, and I live for days like this! I have the dial-up number for the conference call meeting. The number is: 1-888-742-8686. You will then be asked to punch in a conference ID number, and that is 9997540. The call starts at 1pm.

I absolutely know that this falls into the category of dirty tricks, but I can't help myself. I love causing trouble. We're pushing the envelope of Internet cybergossip, we can now listen to layoffs in real time.

I asked this person about Tim Noe and I was told that he is "just a puppet man," that the person pulling the puppet strings is Paul Humenansky at divine. This person also told me that Andy Parker quit because of Humenansky, but added that Dia Weil is legitimately leaving for personal reasons.
