Companies promising SEO miracles for your websites & blogs have mushroomed all over. While a few are good & does bring in adequate value, the majority of them are fringing on fraudulent activities.

So how do you detect a fraud? Here are a few tips that could help you avoid falling into any of these SEO scams.

Avoid SEO Frauds & Scams

• unsolicited Emails informing you of the BEST SEO offer
• unknown agency with emails using free services like gmail.com or yahoo.com
• promising SEO results in 24 hours
• promising guaranteed submissions to all search engines in 24 h – 72 hours
• talking of a low-recurring fee
• asking for link-exchanges & promising back-links from hundreds of PR 3 or above websites

• guarantees top search ranking in Google, Bing, Yahoo & Ask in 24 h – 72 hours
• promising great SEO without even changing your content
• giving you special discounts just because your website or blog has the POTENTIAL for top ranking in Google, Yahoo, Bing or Ask search results

Along with avoiding these scammers (I usually mark them as Spam or Phishing Email immediately), you may want to avoid these following SEO traps even when working on your own.

SEO Mistakes that could hurt your Long Term Business:

• link exchanges with fraudulent or obscure websites
• keeping comments (even if they are sensible) linked to fraudulent or black listed websites & domains
• hiding links in your web page either by using the font color same as that of the background, using Javascripts to conceal links or bunching keywords at the footer or header that are irrelevant to the page’s content

Take your SEO seriously. There is no end to SE Optimization & only move as far ahead with SE Optimization as is necessary for your online business.
