Internet Marketing Tycoon

Hi all,

Could you pay someone or a company $1-200 and they will properly promote your websites, submit you to search engines and directories, get backlinks from decent sites (in other words, doing the hard work for you) ???

If yes, could someone tell me a reputable/affordable company that does this?

Thankyou

There are a lot of companies who will offer to do this at various prices, but I don't think that $200 would get you anything in the way of results (although I am sure there are a thousand sites that will claim it will!).

SEOmoz keeps returning to the "$500 SEO" topic at the moment. Hasn't really come up with much as yet, but worth keeping an eye on:

At the end of the day though, it is basic economics. If you can do it for $200 then a competitor can do it better for $300 - and so it goes on until it's true value is achieved (OK , the "true value" bit is pure theory and rarely seems to apply online).

Yes, you can!

You could hire an online marketing company, although they tend to be very expensive. They'd do the whole lot for you: brand recognition, SEO, link backs, ad campaign management etc. etc. etc.

On a budget of $1-2000 though, you could hire an expert. You can outsource (ahem, sig) the work and it would be much cheaper. Make sure you specify what you want, and state the deliverables as "x no. of visitors" or "1st page listings" so you know they've done the job well.

Good luck!

$1-2000 is quite a jump from $1-200 though.

I agree Harvey. You can get such services from reliable outsource companies who provide SEO services. You can hire SEO experts those are providing such services.
