Low Cost SEO services for 2013


 

This is a happy review from one of our clients based in the US 


With the threat of Fiscal cliff looming over in 2013, SEO companies operating out of the US are on the look for a cheaper SEO service to outsource link building, optimization needs. Lately the eyes are on countries such as Philippines, Kenya, Sri-Lanka which work out a lot cheaper than the Search Engine Optimisation firms in India. With higher inflation and rising real estate costs, India no longer seem to attract SEO companies in the US and Europe.

However when it comes to latest SEO techniques, adaptability etc, India stands tall among the rest of the world when it comes to SEO outsourcing. One has to find a perfect balance between the rate and quality delivered. The results, the rankings matter a lot that SEO is no longer about quantity but quality. Basic SEO services such as Submissions, forum posting, Blog commenting etc still play a significant role in the SEO process. These jobs are not cost effective to be done inhouse by any SEO firm operating in the western world.

The point here is which would be the preferred destination when it comes to outsourcing SEO services? The answer lies in the fact that the level of service one require for their clients. If the client is a corporate, certainly you cannot outsource the jobs to relatively new players in Sri-Lanka or Philippines. While if it is a small business and needs very basic SEO service such as forum posting, Blog commenting etc. you can opt for service providers from the above countries which will save you a good amount of money.

Bruce Clay on SEO for 2013

 
 Low cost SEO doesn’t mean cheap quality always. Recently I tried a number of  SEO companies from India, Srilanka & Philippines for a variety of clients. I tried them with the basic service of Directory submission and these companies charged me from $10-$20. The results were mixed. Indian companies had the latest list and charged me an average of $14. Also they confirmed the submissions for me, not to mention that a few of the  Indian SEO companies created an exclusive Gmail account for the client. Others were good though but the submissions were done not exactly according to the guidelines.

An Indian SEO company surprised me with a low cost and timely quality delivery. They charged me $10 for 100 directory submissions which included a FREE DMOZ submission, an exclusive gmail account and confirmation of all the submissions. They are relatively new but the owner had worked in a reputed SEO firm for over six years. You can give them a try at cheaptopseo.com
