This was a very clear picture of the People who have decided that this particular Vehicle is the type and level that that they feel relates to them in a very direct way. Without being gaudy !
Hedge's Paid Search team has helped me for over a year and I am very happy with their skills and services....in fact, I just extended our relationship to include SEO management. Highly recommend.
I would never recommend to use this company for advertising. They claim to be experts but they got my google ads account banned almost immediately after running ads for me. It took them 3 months to resolve the none existent issue. I had to pay there advising fee for every month that the account was banned, and when they finally managed to get it running again, they ran the worst returning campaign in my companies history. Don't waste you time or money with these people.

Luis Vigo's Review Sourced from Google
On 09/16/2022 I signed a contract with Your Business Marketer for: Online Display Ads, Paid Social Media Ads, and Ads Content.The contract states:With the Online Displays ads, they use “Programmatic Ads Demographic/Geographic Targeted Ads”, with the objective of “Increasing online awareness through highly targeted display ads”. The Campaign Details state: Targeting through data homeowners in the local area fortop-of-mind awareness. Ads to deliver 1,500,000impressions over the course of the campaign. Adstargeting specified data and geographic areas to increasesite traffic and engage the audience. Ads designed to drivepeople to the website.The underlined paragraph are the parts of the contract that has been promised but not been delivered.I have been promised a Behavioral target so only customers interested in my service (Solar Panels System) will be targeted with the ads and directed to my website, this has not been delivered since 100% of the leads are not interested, 100% are not real customers, 100% of them did click on any add, as you can see in the spreadsheet I create for all the leads from Your Business Marketer.My ads are all in Spanish and my target is Spanish-speaking people in the Chicago Metropolitan Area, this also has not been delivered, as you can see in the spreadsheet.My ads have not been Demographic and geographically targeted since 29% are not hispanic, 13% are from another state, and 3% are out of the country.With Paid Social Media Ads, they use Targeted Social Media. Build social media interaction and action with ads growing an engaged targeted audience to raise awareness and increase exposure.The contract in the Campain Details for Targeted Social Media, states:Social media ads on Facebook and Instagram to gainawareness to homeowners in the local area, as well asgrowing a following. Ongoing ads driving them to takeaction leading to long-term consistent client growth forSolar Professionals of Illinois.This has also been promised but not delivered since most of the leads they provide are not homeowners, also I have an application that every time somebody is on my website I get notified, and that never happens, what makes me think that the money they supposed to expend in ads they did not and most of the lead has been fabricated.I create a spreadsheet with every single lead they provide, there show these results:189 LEADS100 % not real customers100 % they didn't click on any add100 % are not interested29 % are not Hispanic (all ads we create are in Spanish)25 % came with no name or phone, only email address20 % have bad information13 % are from another state (no good geofencing) - 2411 % bad or wrong phone number10 % never answer6 % don't have a house3 % don't have a name3 % out of the country (really bad geofencing) - 62 % an old person living in an assisted living home - 42 % hung up1 % have solar panelsAll this analysis confirms my suspicion that the leads have been fabricated and are not real.Is worth noticing that four of these leads are from old people living in nursing assisted homes, waiting for a call from a family member, a son, or a grandchild, and instead they get a call from me when they never were interested, Your Business Marketer use them to fulfill a quota of leads they need to show, this prove, they have no shame.On a phone conversation with Mike Snellenberger on 01/18/2023, I expressed my desire to cancel our arrangement since they were not delivering what they promise and the leads were very bad, and he refuse.On 03/21/2023 I spoke with the fraud department of US Bank because I continue to get charged after I put a stop payment on 03/02/2023, they state that the company use a Quickbooks service and was able to get around my stop payments and get paid.I have to close my business checking account because I believe they will not stop with the contract, they will keep on trying to get more and more.

SEO audits and reporting: Analyzing performance, tracking rankings, traffic, and conversions, and refining strategy based on data.
Can SEO companies guarantee a #1 ranking on Google?
No, a professional SEO agency cannot guarantee a #1 ranking on Google. Google’s algorithm is controlled by Google, not agencies, and rankings depend on competition, search intent, site authority, and ongoing algorithm updates.
Search engine optimization companies can improve your chances of higher rankings by optimizing your site, creating quality content, and building authority. They cannot control final positions.
Any agency that guarantees a #1 ranking is using a sales tactic or risky methods that can lead to penalties and traffic loss. Reliable SEO agencies focus on measurable growth such as increased organic traffic, more qualified leads, and higher conversions.
How do SEO agencies measure success?
SEO agencies measure success using traffic, rankings, and conversions from organic search. The primary metrics include:
Organic traffic: Number of visitors coming from search engines. This shows overall visibility growth.
Keyword rankings: Position improvements for target keywords. Higher rankings increase traffic potential.
Conversions: Leads, purchases, or sign-ups generated from organic traffic. This connects SEO to revenue.
Click-through rate (CTR): Percentage of users who click your result. This reflects how effective your titles and descriptions are.
Bounce rate and engagement: How users interact with your site. Strong engagement signals relevant traffic.
Backlink profile growth: Number and quality of external websites linking to you. This reflects authority improvement.
Return on investment (ROI): Revenue generated compared to SEO cost. This determines the business impact.
How much do search engine optimization companies charge for their services?
SEO agencies typically charge between $500 and $7,500 per month, with most businesses paying $1,000 to $2,500 monthly. Pricing varies based on the agency, scope, and level of competition.
Common pricing ranges include:
Monthly retainers: $500 to $7,500 per month for ongoing SEO. Large or enterprise companies may pay $10,000 to $50,000+ per month.
Project-based SEO: $1,000 to $30,000 per project for audits, site optimization, or migrations.
Hourly consulting: $75 to $300, depending on expertise and provider.
Performance-based SEO: Custom pricing tied to traffic growth, rankings, or revenue.
Costs increase with competitive industries, larger websites, national or international targeting, and full-service campaigns that include technical SEO, content, and link building.
How long does it take to see results?
SEO typically takes 4 to 6 months to start showing results, and 6 to 12 months to deliver significant traffic and revenue growth. The exact timeline depends on your website and competition.
Typical SEO timeline:
1 to 3 months: Research, technical fixes, and content creation. Minimal traffic impact. Early ranking improvements may appear.
4 to 6 months: Noticeable ranking improvements, traffic growth, and initial leads or conversions.
6 to 12 months: Strong traffic increases, consistent rankings, and measurable business results.
12+ months: Maximum impact. SEO becomes a major and stable source of traffic and revenue.
Factors that affect timing include website age, existing authority, competition level, content quality, and budget. New websites often need 6 to 12 months, while established websites may see improvements faster, sometimes within 1 to 3 months.
