How are all “those” successful companies achieving top 1st page rankings on
search engines like google, yahoo!, Bing, and ask?

The Search Engine Store knows how some of them got there, because they’re the
ones that put ‘em there. From small online shops to large corporations, they’ve
proven themselves time after time and their clients couldn’t be happier.

Read what a few said:

“We were targeting highly competitive single keywords for our B2B site. Though
the traffic on those keywords were astounding, if we were to achieve 1st page
rankings for them on google, yahoo!, Bing, or even just one of them, it would
increase our business dramatically. The Search Engine Store got us there within
6 months of signing on and our traffic has jumped from 12k unique visits per
month to over 40k. This goes without saying, we will continue using them for
years to come.”

Rob M.

B2B Corporation

“We needed a solution for our online presence so we could stay ahead of our
competition and get more business leads from our website. Being a small local
company looking for local business, The Search Engine Store recommended we hit
up geo-targeted city keywords within our industry. Within 4 months we have been
top 5 ranking in over 50 surrounding cities on google and at least 10-15 hot
leads coming in per week. Needless to say, they rock!”

Jan C.

Warehouse Facility

“A print marketing company built our online shop with over 300 products. The
company did not have much experience in Internet Marketing and very little in
SEO. There wasn’t much success because they sold us on the age-old saying, if
you build it, they will come.

They didn’t come until The Search Engine Store brought in their team of experts
and revamped our site so the search engines could actually find us. Thanks
solely to them, we now sell in the hundreds of thousands online every month. A
mere fraction of what it cost us. My partner said it was the best investment
we’d ever made! I couldn’t agree more.”

Rich M.

Specialty Products Company

* My latest info. is that Ellis Booker may have just quit and may not have been
fired. He was there ten years and may have been fed up, but I will keep trying.
Mums the word from Willinger and Lundin on him.

* This blog post was brought to my attention after the last report went out and
it is too funny not to pass on, especially on Friday the 13th.

Here was my Mercantec stunt back in January of 2001 when they planned to lay
off people on a conference call.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++

01/05/2001

Version:
Scoop

1pm meeting at Mercantec

It is 11:55am and I just got a call about a company-wide meeting at 1pm at
Mercantec, where it is quite possible that they will announce the layoffs of
more than 20 of their 65 employees. There have been many closed door meetings
over the last few weeks, so something is up and it’s anticipated that today’s
meeting will reveal what that is.

Now here’s where we can have a little fun, and I live for days like this! I
have the dial-up number for the conference call meeting. The number is:
1-888-742-8686. You will then be asked to punch in a conference ID number, and
that is 9997540. The call starts at 1pm.

I absolutely know that this falls into the category of dirty tricks, but I
can’t help myself. I love causing trouble. We’re pushing the envelope of
Internet cybergossip, we can now listen to layoffs in real time.

I asked this person about Tim Noe and I was told that he is “just a puppet
man,” that the person pulling the puppet strings is Paul Humenansky at divine.
This person also told me that Andy Parker quit because of Humenansky, but added
that Dia Weil is legitimately leaving for personal reasons.
