Got a call from 877-853-4973.  Spoke the name of the company twice but too fast to hear but it could have been localSEOsites.com. .  Said that they are the number one dental marketing company and that we were really lacking in something that they could fix.

I have used local seo sites for 4 years now. They have always done what I ask and gone above and beyond. My friend referred me. That is why i signed up. I hope this helps!

They are indeed a Certified Google Partner. Here is their partnership proof  with Google....

To Respond to Todd first @ http://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Local-SEO-Sites-206390787 --- obviously a salesman of theirs --- "Beware of SEOs that claim to guarantee rankings, allege a 'special relationship' with Google". This is straight from Google's lips @http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py? hl=en&answer=35291. Already he has claimed they have a relationship with Google being "Google Approved" (every SEO company is "Google Approved" until they get black-listed) and they're about to become "preferred" in some way. Their website guarantees you a top 10 ranking in 60 days. Let me explain to you, the reader, my knowledge and my experience via my father with this company (you're going to want to read all of this ;). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My father hired this company to do his website. I had originally produced for him a semi-copy overnight of another website I had previously worked on. Before I could personalize it for my father I completely ran out of spare time between school, my day job, and getting shipped out to Florida for about 6 months to perform IT services (everything you could think of) for some very large, technology-heavy companies and government facilities.

My whole life I've been passionate about computers. At age 11 I built and configured my own PC (hardware and software from the ground up). At age 12 I began programming and quickly learned how to build websites. Now at the age of 23 with over 10 years of web programming experience, I was introduced by a Sr. Programmer to SEO just after New Years. This is something I picked up like second nature with my IT and marketing background. SEO isn't rocket science, but it takes a lot of related knowledge and experience.

With that being said, I came back home to see that LocalSeoSites.com did not hold up to their word. They take advantage of the terminology to manipulate you, the consumer.

After 60 days of their poor performance I called them with my father and got him refunded 1 month. After 90 days there was still HUGE issues with the quality and amount of work done.

Here are just a FEW issues I found:

1-They did NOT optimize and update his current site like they said.. AT ALL. (Not one file has been added or changed since I stopped working on the site).

2-They picked POOR keywords for generating business. They claimed my father picked them (wait, aren't THEY the SEO experts?). The keywords they chose are incapable of attracting the right traffic. The terminology is very poor and even my Dad knew that. No matter how well you optimize your site, if your keywords are wrong the optimization means nothing. This will produce very little business at best. "It takes just as long to build a failing business as it does to build a successful one."

3- Almost half of the submissions to listing websites in his "OMAP" report were wrong, and so were all of the reviews - A DIFFERENT BUSINESS IN THE SAME BUILDING WAS LISTED INSTEAD OF HIM & THE REVIEWS WERE FOR THE OTHER BUSINESS AS WELL. Not to mention, only 15 submissions (correct or incorrect) is very poor for 90 days' work. Not only that, but they submit in such a futile order that it causes repeat work for them (and requires more $$ from you)!

Within 1 submission to certain search indexes you're listed in 100's to 1,000's of directories and search engines. They didn't even start there at least (one of the first things I ever learned about SEO)...

4-No sitemap was ever created and published (literally, the first thing you should ever do when optimizing a website)! This is also a critical tool for submitting your page to search indexes which search engines (i.e. Google) pull their information from.

5-They created 1 Google Places/Business profile that actually showed up on the first page for a poor keyword (but that only works if the person searching is in the same zip code as your business - what about people who live in the next zip code over and so forth?). This is something that literally takes 5-10 minutes max for an "SEO Expert" to make.

For the other 9 keywords he's nowhere to be found after 90 days.

6- They created one of the worst videos I've ever seen on youtube.com for him. It conveyed nothing about his business practice. This was a generic copy and paste job. It would have taken someone about a minute to do the same thing and another 5 minutes at most to upload it to Youtube.com...

I do not want to bore you if you've made it this far so I'll stop listing their major "boo-boos" already. The fact of the matter is that 85% of these SEO businesses are a scam, and LocalSeoSites.com is no exception.

I have spoken with Al and Andrew (the self-proclaimed owner)about this severe problem and all they could respond with is stuttering and telling me to look at their "OMAP" proprietary report. Well, this synopsis is based mostly on that report!

To top it off, when my father requested the service be cancelled, Andrew said he'll forward it to his legal department and we'll hear from them on 5/31/11(over a week ago today). No call yet from his "legal department", but he has made numerous attempts to convince my father to stay with him and even told him there's a $900 cancellation fee for early termination! Luckily I have everything documented, and we'll see Andrew in court.

My father always taught me "the 2 things in life that nobody can take from you is : knowledge and integrity." Don't let this company take advantage of your lack of knowledge in internet marketing/SEO, and DEFINITELY don't let them damage the integrity of your dollar or SEO campaign!

They deserve 1/5 stars, as a professional opinion. Thank you for making it through this lengthy review with me. Feel free to email me personally with any questions you have at nate.ty@live.com.

G-d Bless

Listened to a voice mail message that someone named Michael Hanson left on my business line. First, it was over a minute long (what kind of sales person does that)? Second, while he said the name of the company twice, it was too fast to understand what he was saying. However, now looking at the above notes I find that it was Local SEO Sites.
I would in no way do business with someone that calls and tries to solicit my business and they don't know who to speak with (my name). Past experience, either a scam, a sham or a telemarketer.
I called back and someone named Phil answered, asked to be taken off their list and to put me on the DNC list. He got angry and said something about soliciting business to business and hung up on me. WTH?
From the first time I heard the message up until the time I called - everything was totally unprofessional about this.

Got a call this morning, first half of msg was cut off, she just left the phone # and said anyone who answered could help me (with what, I don't know). I called the number, it went to voice mail and said the person at 714-767-6462 was not available at this time.  Called again, got a different voice mail, an actual persons voice, said he was Jason Wood, I think.

From my research here is the answer: Local SEO Sites SCAM www.localseosites.com Local SEO Sites is a scam. They tell people they are calling from Google. First of all as a business owner for 25 years. I have not once gotten a call from Google directly. I called them back just like any other business owner would and they then told me they we're from some company in Costa Mesa, CA. They also told me they we're a Google company and when I asked again, they said no, they're just a Google vendor. SCAM ARTISTS. CON ARTISTS. SCAMMERS. FRAUDSTERS. What ever happened to ethical companies would are proud to represent themselves? Cheers!
