Is it a wise idea to optimize a site solely written in html using the seo services of the hosting company?
the services they offer are;
1) Submission to 100 search engines;
2)12 monthly re-submission;
3) Meta tag generator services;
4)Guaranteed listing in Google;
5)Keywords research;
6) Ranking performance;
7)Link popularity;
8)Competeitive analysis;

Is it a wise solution to go with this company or should I use the services of the company purely involved into seo?
The company I'm referring to is sibername.com .

Most of what they offer is complete and utter crap. It's designed to make it look like they have 8 handy things for free, but you wouldn't want probably any of them.

You don't need to submit to the search engines the first time, let alone monthly.

A listing in Google can't be guaranteed.

Meta keywords tag is not used, and description is too important to let software make it for you.

Do you want competitive analysis from someone like that?

I think it's better to use the SEO services from the company that are involved in it. 12 monthly re-submissions - sounds nice for me. SiberName.com offers this service and it's a good idea to use it from them.

I wonder if many web masters use SEO services from the companies that provide it.
SiberName.com provides it for cgeap prices. But is it effective method in increasing PR of the web site?

Shaddap, Hirst.

Actually, I am familiar with that particular company as I use them as a .ca domain registrar. So I know exactly who they are.

As a domain registrar, they're pretty good. They offer PayPal (which I prefer simply because I don't have to use a credit card...long story coming about those at some point in the distant future), the pricing is reasonable, and they've been around a while.

As an SEO company...they're a good domain registrar. As John pointed out, all of the services above are complete and utter crap and will give you nothing but trouble.

You don't need to submit any site to a major search engine. Simply get an inbound link from a place that's crawled by SE spiders frequently (e.g. Webmaster-Talk) and you'll get indexed. You might even start picking up traffic for longtail phrases, if you're lucky and you built your site properly. That knocks out 1, 2, and 4.

As far as "meta tag generator services" go, all you have to do is input keywords and a description and they'll go to the "trouble" of creating the tags for you.

I'll make life easier on you. Just fill in the blanks and away you go:
Code:
<meta name="description" content="" />
<meta name="keywords" content="" />
The only tag of any use will be the meta description tag, although the odd minor search engine will use meta keywords and you MIGHT pick up a referral or two that way (longshot, but it does happen).

Keywords research: www.wordtracker.com . Spend about $5 and do it yourself, but take the results with a grain of salt as WordTracker is becoming more and more inaccurate as more and more SEOs start querying search engines to "check rank" (more on that later).

Rank checking: a complete waste of time and an inaccurate exercise. Geotargeting, personalization, different servers, different datacenters, and other factors create an environment where search results end up all over the map; what I see probably won't be what you see, what John sees, what Chris sees, what everyone else sees (although there may be some similarities at some points).

Check your site stats. If you see referral traffic for your keywords, you're ranking where you're supposed to rank. If not, then you need to do more.

Link popularity: another great waste of time. There is no accurate way to check this, nor should there be. The link: operator in big G has long been known to present a fraction of information (as well it should) and other similar queries on other engines, while they tend to be more accurate, don't paint the full picture.

Competitive analysis: quietly becoming one of the biggest scams in SEO. Competitive analysis is based off of a few of the factors mentioned above (rank checking, link popularity) as well as some other useless factors (PageRank, Alexa Rank, Compete.Com Rank, keyword analysis, etc.) Don't even waste your time ordering that garbage.

Sibername.com is WEB hosting company first of all.
Their main trand is web hosting, then they are domain name registrar, then they are web design company and finaly they offer SEO services. I think that you have to understand that if you consider them as SEO company.

It's never been these little extras which have attracted me to a web hosting company, usually their reputation and prices come in as a major factor. Besides if you have the money you can get SEO done really well by people who know what is required for site to be well publicised, alternatively you could try and learn how SEO works.

Always go for a company which is purely into SEO. Most of the things listed above are of minuscule importance. It will surely not help you
