TopSEOs

This website has proven to be a good starting point, though I make sure to do my own research on the companies we are considering. We've hired two different firms now that have both been successful projects. A successful redesign has helped us stand apart from others in our space and a SEO and PPC campaign has helped us drive a ton of traffic to our website in a relatively short period of time. If you use it as a starting point to find good companies and then connect directly with them, I would say it is a pretty solid and accurate resource. The fact that they have reviews on the website also helps weed out the companies that take the money and run, though it seems they do a good job of doing that themselves in their lists.

I've been checking out Topseos for quite a few years now to keep a tab on new developments in the digital marketing space. It's been interesting to see how things change and how companies change, and I have even found a few good partners through the website to help me and my clients with their digital marketing initiatives. They have some great quality companies on there and it is always a pleasure to meet them at different industry events.

They have a long list of what are "leaders" in affiliate marketing. I called 10 and there were 2 that are out of business and have been for at least 3 years, 1 that has an inaccurate phone number, 1 that says they do affiliate but actually is a finders' service to find you affiliates. The misleading one contradicted themselves too many times to count. One guy was saying stuff like "You spoke to Brian yesterday, right?" I commented, "I thought you said you were Brian." He would come back with, "Yes I am Brian, but you spoke with him right?" I asked for his last name and he is the same guy but not quite right in the head. This guy told me there were no upfront fees and sent me a proposal with what the upfront fees are. This is the only company that almost had me fooled. The others were upfront that the information was inaccurate. I contacted the TopSEOs company and all they could do is make a sales pitch that the "leaders" list are the top companies. HINT The ones I called.

There are two places on the website where you can find a company. They have their rankings which is what their team believes to be good companies to hire, and then there is the directory which I could completely leave alone given how many companies there are. You'll never know what you're getting until you see their proposal, if they even send one. However, the rankings that they have at the top of the website seem to be the best bet when it comes to connecting with different SEO companies. We've had great experiences with it.

TopSEOs is basically just a list of paid advertisements. If you don't pay, you don't get a place on the list. The more you pay, the higher visibility. Stay away from that site.

Also, there are a number of fake reviews here. The so-called "Robert" (below) is using a stock photo bought from Shutterstock, and has given very positive reviews to multiple websites affiliated with TopSEOs. Other reviews looks fake as well to me. So many positive reviews in such a short time for such a bad company fake reviews...

Having been around the block when it comes to getting marketing done online I've used their website a fair bunch when looking to connect my clients with a great SEO company. I've used TopSEOs as a resource since around 2007 and it has always given me a good idea of who is doing well and who offers the best value at any given time. Given how much the SEO industry changes over time at the whim of Google, they have helped me stay up to date on who can actually achieve the results and which companies fall off the board over time. What worked two years ago is outdated at this point.

The web design company we had been using to build a website for our new product had been taking forever to get the work done or to even get back to us on our questions. We got so fed up with it that we decided to see if there was anyone that could help us. When we contacted the people running the website, they recommended we leave a review on the company. This got us a call with the CEO of the web design company to figure out what was going on, which got the project elevated. We very much appreciate their help and the visibility their website offers to those using the services found on the website.

Jeev Trika from TOPSEOs won't stop spamming my email about their paid service. I've responded to their emails numerous times and yet I receive at least 2 emails a week. I've even submitted it to support and still nothing. I don't know if this is a bug, a bot, an auto-trigger, or what but it's annoying and unprofessional. Think I'm just going to remove my profile from their site altogether to see if that makes it stop.
