SEO - the proof is in the results!

Results are what count in Search Engine Optimization. If a company providing services in improving the ranking of your web site can't show that their own web site gets high rankings, and that they have clients who have achieved high rankings, then where's the proof?

  If you are looking for a company to improve your rankings on Google, Yahoo or MSN, look no further! Take a look at the following rankings for Dedicated Desktop's web site and some of our clients' web sites. Note the total results number in brackets, the higher this number the more difficult it is to get to the top. I don't include rankings for company names, as those are usually much easier to get. I did include Robert Bateman though, as that was very hard to get and took a while to achieve... No. 1 out of over 4 million results!!

  So, the proof is in the results! Do a keyword search for your web site and if your results don't compare to the above, give us a call!

  It's important to note that achieving high ranking on any search engine is not a permanent thing. Fluctuation can occur daily as more and more web sites are created and/or optimized. The above results may have changed since the date of this posting. Regular maintenance of your web site should be carefully done so as not to lose or corrupt the optimization that has been done. Some html editing software automatically alters your code which can change optimization results.

Update: It's August 9th, over four months later and all of these rankings in Google, except one, remain the same. None of these sites have had the optimizing altered during this time.
