      SEO Review from Ruben Muller

      We hired Syntactics in April 2025 for a premium SEO campaign. Promises included high-quality, Australian-based backlinks, technical SEO fixes, competitor analysis, and a clear roadmap.Before choosing them, we noticed many positive reviews online. In my opinion, many appear to be from employees or not genuine, so I recommend looking beyond the star rating.Within weeks of starting, our performance went backwards:Organic traffic dropped by 370 visits per monthTop-ranking keywords in positions 13 fell sharplySite health score fell from the high 90s to 55 (see Ahrefs screenshots)Key issues:Backlinks were mostly from irrelevant forums and free blog platforms like Tumblr and Blogspot, with no industry or geographic relevanceCompetitor analysis and keyword gap strategy never deliveredOnly 2 blogs published in the first month, not 3 as promisedKeyword targeting fell short of the 1625 agreedTechnical SEO reporting was vague until repeatedly requestedMissed and late meetings, reactive communication, and undisclosed changes to structured data that harmed national search visibilityDespite multiple opportunities to correct course, the campaign failed to deliver on the agreed scope. We were left with worse rankings, reduced site health, low-quality backlinks, and extra costs to repair the damage.Advice: Avoid Syntactics if you value your search performance. The screenshots show exactly what happened to us in just a few months.

      Ruben Müller's Review Sourced from Google

      We engaged Syntactics in late April 2025 for what was sold as a premium, targeted SEO campaign. The onboarding was friendly and confident, and we were told to expect high-quality, niche-relevant, Australian-based backlinks, technical SEO improvements, competitor analysis, and a clear roadmap.Before choosing them, we noticed many positive reviews online. In our opinion, a large number of these appear to be from employees or otherwise not genuine, so we would strongly encourage potential clients to look beyond the star rating and read the details.The reality for us was the opposite of what was promised, and the screenshots below speak for themselves:Organic traffic fell by 370 visits per month after engagementTop-ranking keywords in positions 1 to 3 dropped sharplySite health score fell from the high 90s before Syntactics to 55(Screenshots from Ahrefs attached)What Went WrongPerformance Declines After EngagementThese drops happened after Syntactics began their work. There is no reasonable way to present this as a “foundation month” when the actual result was a backward step in rankings, traffic, and site health.Backlink Strategy MisrepresentedWe were promised Australian-based, industry-relevant backlinks. Instead, we received links from irrelevant forums and free blog platforms like Tumblr, Blogspot, and JustPaste. These had no topical or geographical relevance and were not what we agreed to.Key Deliverables Missing or LateCompetitor analysis and keyword gap strategy were never deliveredOnly 2 blogs in the first month instead of 3 as promisedKeyword targeting fell short of the 16 to 25 agreedTechnical SEO reporting was vague until repeatedly requestedPoor CommunicationMeetings were missed or started late. Early reporting was high-level and avoided key performance issues. The NSW-only geo restriction in our structured data was never disclosed and was only discovered by our new SEO consultant.The OutcomeDespite multiple opportunities to correct the work, the campaign failed to deliver on the core promises. We were left with worse rankings, lower site health, poor-quality backlinks, and additional costs to fix the damage.Our AdviceIf you value your search rankings and site integrity, avoid Syntactics. The screenshots above show exactly what happened to us in only a few months.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the most requested services of custom software development firms?

The most requested services from custom software development firms are almost entirely AI-based products, delivered primarily through web application development, mobile development, AI agent development, and legacy system refactoring. UX/UI design, cloud infrastructure, DevOps, and QA automation are typically not sold as standalone services; instead, they are embedded within each of these project types.

As reported by Diffco, year-over-year trends show a prevailing shift: AI agent development has grown from a niche request into a significant share of overall volume, while demand for legacy system refactoring continues to rise as clients seek to prepare their existing systems to support AI capabilities.

ServiceShare of total demand
Web application development40%
Mobile app development30%
AI agent development20%
Legacy system refactoring10%

How much does a software development company charge for its services?

Software development services typically cost $50,000 for MVPs to $2 million+ for enterprise software. US developers generally charge $120-$200/hour, while developers in Europe and Asia charge around $25-$150/hour.

How do I determine if a global company is the right size for my project?

To determine if a global software development agency is the right size for your project, match project complexity and scale to company capacity.

Choose a large/global agency with 1000+ staff, if your project:

  • Is complex or enterprise-grade, includes multiple software solutions, integrations, and compliance
  • Requires multiple roles in parallel (project management, UX/UI design, backend, quality assurance (QA), DevOps)
  • Needs 24/7 support, multi-time-zone delivery, or long-term maintenance

Large software development companies reduce delivery risk for complex programs but typically charge higher rates and use more structured processes.

Choose a small or mid-size agency with 10-200 staff if your project:

  • Is an MVP or mid-scale build
  • Requires speed, flexibility, and direct access to senior talent
  • Has a tighter budget and well-defined scope

Who owns the Intellectual Property (IP) and source code at the end of the project?

In most software development projects, the client owns the Intellectual Property (IP) and source code upon completion of the engagement, unless the contract explicitly states otherwise. Standard practice dictates that the ownership of the source code, documentation, design elements, and custom deliverables belongs to the client upon full payment. Contracts typically use "work made for hire" or an IP assignment clause to formalize this. 

Third-party or open-source components, however, are not owned by the client. Instead, they are used under their respective licenses. Some agencies retain ownership of pre-existing frameworks or reusable tools and grant the client a license to use them. You should also know that IP ownership is not automatic. To avoid disputes, ensure the contract clearly states full IP and source-code ownership transfers to you upon payment, with no usage limitations.

What tools and frameworks do software developers use?

They use various tools and frameworks, depending on the type of digital product they’re building. But the most common include: 

  • Full-stack JavaScript: MERN, MEAN, Jamstack (ex, Next.js)
  • Backend: Java-Spring, Python, Django, Ruby on Rails, LAMP
  • UI and Cross-Platform Development: React, Angular, Vue, Qt
  • Languages: JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Kotlin 
  • AI and Data-Driven Development: Python, Hugging Face, LangChain, Apache Spark, Kafka, Kubeflow, Lite, ONNX, Replit
  • QA and Testing: Selenium, Cypress, Jenkins, GitLab, JMeter, OWASP ZAP, Testim, Mabl

What are the best software development companies in 2026?

What questions should I ask before hiring a software development company?

Before hiring a software development company, ask:

 

  • Have you built similar software before?
  • Which technologies will you use?
  • Who will work on my project?
  • What is included in the scope?
  • How long will development take?
  • How do you handle testing and security?
  • Do you provide support after launch?
