RE: Overview for www.nielsentech.com

Hi Benjamin,
 
Here are the problems I have with your email:
 
- It is SPAM. If you don't think so, look up how the word is defined and you should understand.
 
- We are a SEO company. You either know this and think we suck, or you don't know this because you never even bothered to look at our site. Either situation is a problem. For you.
 
- Your site has no PageRank. You even admit this and say it is because it is just some mini-site that you use. So you are protecting your main site from being shut down for spamming by using the mini-site? If you know this is wrong, why do you do this? Will you treat customer's sites in the same manner?
 
- You imply something is wrong with our site. That may or may not be true, but aren't we the best judge of that? We have lots of customers and business, so as far as I am concerned, our site is fine as it is, just a little out of date because we are so busy.
 
- Telling a potential customer that there is something wrong with their web site is about the worst possible way to start a sales call. I know this for sure, because about 6 years ago I did the same exact thing. I looked at sites, wrote up what the problems were and then contacted the site owner. I didn't get any business and it made people mad. Some got very mad. Oooops!
 
- If you have to send out email spam like this, doesn't that say that what you do is not working for you? I mean, if you can't use SEO to get customers for your own business, how can you use SEO to help anyone else...?

Subject: Overview for www.nielsentech.com

Hello,

 

Firstly, let me introduce myself as a search consultant for PolePositionSEO.com.

 

I came across www.nielsentech.com today while looking for a website with unique content that would make a good candidate for better search engine rankings.

 

I've taken the liberty of performing a complimentary link analysis for you to check how well your site is doing at the moment in terms of inbound links, which are a critical component of good rankings on Google.

 

We've used 2 different link checks for your website - Google.com and Alltheweb.com. Here are your results:

 

  • According to Google.com you have 160 incoming links
  • According to Alltheweb.com you have 12200 incoming links
    •  
    [It's very common for a difference to show between these two numbers, I'll be happy to explain why if you wish to hear more]
     

    The reason that having a decent number of links from other trusted websites is so important to search engines like Google is that they are a bit like votes for your site. The better your inbound link profile, the higher your website is likely to rank on Google and the more visitors / return on investment it will bring you.

     

    To improve your link profile and have your website rank highly on the search engines for your keywords, we are able to offer you a search engine promotion service that sources links from other websites with a view to building your link authority. Additionally, and of equal importance, we will examine the architecture of your website and provide advice to ensure it is correctly set up for current search engine algorithms.

     

    We aim to achieve Top 10 rankings for your website on the major search engines and back your results with our unique Performance Agreement that refunds your monthly payments should this target not be reached. Specifically:

    1. We will work to achieve first page results for your website across the three most important search engines (Google, Yahoo, MSN).
    2. The search terms we use will be chosen by you and designed to bring you the maximum level of purchase-motivated traffic possible.
    3. If we can't achieve first page rankings for your site we will refund your money.
    4. If we can't keep your website in the Top 10 we will refund your money.

     

    No-one can promise Top 10 rankings with absolute certainty. What we are able to do is protect your investment.

     

    We are confident our methods work because they are currently achieving first page results for many of our existing clients operating in some of the most competitive industries on the Internet. Our success rate for companies targeting difficult, high-volume search phrases is currently over 90%.

     

    As our client, you will be kept fully updated on your campaign progress, with regular ranking reports that show you exactly how your search terms are doing on each of the search engines.

     

    You will also have the benefit of having a personal search consultant assigned to look after your campaign. Your consultant will be in regular contact to discuss how your campaign is going and will be on-hand to answer your questions whenever they arise.

     

    Providers of search engine marketing services are only as good as the results they achieve for their clients. I would encourage you to check the results we have achieved for our existing clients yourself and would be happy to provide you with a list of contact details so you can check their results and ask them about their general experience with us.

     

    For more details on the service or to be put in touch with some of our existing clients, please call me on 0845 053 7325 (if phoning from outside UK please see below) or email sales@polepositionseo.com. Additional information can also be found at our website www.polepositionseo.com.
