When I needed to launch my new software product Affiliate Elite there were so many things that just needed to be done with such a large scale product launch. Anyone that knows me will know that I leverage my time through hiring highly talented teams to do what needs to be done.
This is where the dilemma lies….
Many know me as the “go to guy” for SEO products and software that helps you with your SEO. I can’t just have any old person working on my sites, it could potentially be bad for my name and my company.
This is where SEO Next came in, a good friend of mine also in the SEO industry highly recommended them as the only team they will ever use. 15 days out from launching my latest product and I needed some serious skill to get this site ranked highly in Google, otherwise I would be leaving massive sales on the table from affiliates that were holding the first place positions for my main keywords.
Within 10 Days SEO Next had us ranked number 1 for our major keyword phrases and on the first page for our secondary keywords. For a brand new site this is an incredible achievement and I am very pleased with the results.
I certainly know who I will be going to for the rest of my SEO Needs.

Whats SEO? was the question I asked this smart young kid in front of me, it was at that point I started to wriggle a little in my seat, I knew at that point I was entering a world I new nothing about.
My company is called Cane Direct and we have been retailing outdoor and conservatory furniture for over 17 years, and I run quite a successful business, but like all companies you are always looking ahead and after 12 months of putting it off,(deep down I was scarred of the unknown) I finally made the decision to launch a web site, I am 43 and like any one who has their own business likes to be in control, I knew nothing about web sites,and most definitely nothing about promoting them (SEO)
This all started 2 years ago, the first company I went to, took my money and gave me what I believed at the time was the fantastic web site, which I later found out was was absolutely useless, so I had to start again, the problem is, this industry is full of sharks, at the top as well as at the bottom and they know you have not got a clue, and they pretty much have you over, so I made the decision to go to a well respected company for my SEO, I sat in a room with two young kids who totally bamboozled me with terms and expressions that I had never heard of (and they were loving it) you could tell it was giving them a power boost,even so I signed a 12 month contract with them at whopping £750.00pm fee after being promised my new web site (which got rebuilt) would be in the top 5 on Google for my top 10 key word search terms.
Guess what? 9 months later I was still no where, I heard just about every reason known to man, I was sandboxed?? I had the wrong domain name, truth was they never did any work on my site, so I went to see the managing director **** ***** in his big ivory tower with his 60 employees who told me he would get me in the top 5 and make me a millionaire, what a ***** he was!! and that I didn’t have to pay anything until I was in the top 5, 2 months later guess what, I was still no where, I wrote mail after mail, I was just about to give up, when through a friend I met a guy called Justin Blackhurst from a company call SEO next, he came to see me at my office, I really didn’t want to hear any more about SEO and what it could do for me, I really had, had enough, 2 minutes in to the meeting I realized this guy was different from all the other SEO sales people I had ever met, he wasn’t on some power trip, he spoke to me in a language that I could understand, he careful explained to me how the world of SEO works, all of a sudden I was feeling good again, could this really be true, have I at last found a company who is really interested in promoting my business, not just interested in taking my money? We made plans of which keywords would be best for me, there was no contract to sign!! quite simply if they didn’t deliver, they didn’t get paid, that was that, I have never looked back, I joined them in December 2009, it is now May 2010, in just 6 months,have a look at what they have done for my company have a look at these very powerful keywords you will see my company is number 1 or 2. www.canedirectfurniture.co.uk for outdoor furniture,conservatory furniture, cane furniture,cane conservatory furniture,rattan furniture, just to name a few.
Their monthly charges are less than most companies and you DO NOT HAVE TO SIGN A CONTRACT! This is a genuine story not just a plug for SEO next, but they did save my bacon so the least I could do, is help them to succeed. If any of their potential customers are still unsure give me a call on 0161 427 7774.
Being an SEO specialist myself and having gained first page rankings in some of the most competitive industries, one such industry being weight loss. When I think of Search Engine Optimization and what it takes to have high quality work delivered on a timely fashion I envision expensive high profile corporate companies that are willing to take 100’s of thousands of dollars at the drop of a hat.
I am here to tell you through personal testimony that, that vision does not need to be any more real then a dream is. SEO Next is THE ONLY company I will ever deal with for my outsource needs when it comes to Search Engine Optimization.
When you give your beloved site or project to SEO Next you aren’t “just giving” your project to “another SEO company”. You are handing over your most valuable asset, online your only presence & branding ability is through your site. SEO Next understand this and treat it like they own it themselves.
SEO Next has an uncanny knowledge of the latest above board SEO tips and tricks that will guarantee you the results you are looking for. Never have I found any team that I fully trust my money earning sites with. That was until SEO Next. Put your trust with SEO Next and you will never be disappointed with the results.
SEO Next and their team produce. In a sea of SEO professionals and companies, their team actually lives up to the hype. They easily adopt my vision, and implement accordingly.
I strongly recommend SEO Next and their team. These guys set realistic expectations, and get work done. They communicate extremely well, which makes them stand out from the rest.
“These chaps pack their promises with a punch! Results are quickly attained and then maintained for good value. Communication and reporting excellent. From day one when Mark began talking with us I was sceptical as to if they could achieve what they were saying, however I am pleased
to announce that they have lifted all our main keywords and enquiries for our products have significantly increased. It’s a pleasure to work with SEO Next, they have been proactive, analytical and best of all they are friendly guys to work with, which in this day and age in business is hard to find, especially in internet marketing. Most companies in their industry sign you into a contracts and then you don’t hear
from them for 3 months. I have all the teams mobile numbers there and can call them any time I like and they are always there to answer my queries. SEO Next are the first Internet Marketing company I have been happy to boast about and they have surpassed my expectations.
I started with SEO Next 6 months back. Initially I was very sceptical because I get 10 phone calls a day from similar companies in their market. However, when I spoke to Justin at SEO Next, the things he said to me really made sense. SEO Next have great commercial awareness and also get results.
For years I have been dabbling with SEO myself, but I could never do it and get great results. They understand their work 100% has to get results. I do understand the process of SEO quite well, however I also have to run my business and I simply do not have time to do this.
Everyone in my industry asks me who I work with for SEO, but I keep it a secret from them because they know I have risen from nowhere. Writing this testimonial has ruined that, my secret is out! Working with SEO Next has been the best marketing spend I have ever made since I setup my own business. Another added benefit with SEO Next is that you don’t need to sign a contract with them…their work speaks for itself and it is a no-brainer to let them work their magic!
I have two other websites and have no hesitation passing these onto the SEO Next team and I have full confidence they will produce results for me, time after time. Have a look at my website today, its 4th for the keyword underfloor heating. Justin promised me page 1 for that keyword and he has surely delivered within a very short time period.
Starting my business I was looking to find a SEO company that could match my commitment to help me succeed. I am happy to say I found it with SEO Next and would fully recommend this company for anyone who was looking for a straight talking, hard working company to help market themselves through the internet.
When I was looking to market my business online, I researched what would be best approach and found myself overwhelmed with the long list of various companies, all with their own unique views & ideas of the best way to do it?
I decided to place my trust in SEO Next as they approached the task with common sense, talking simply about what they would do and did not attempt to confuse me with industry jargon. The whole process has only been live for just over a month but I can already confidently say I am happy with the obvious hard work put into the service, demonstrated by the fact that I am already page 1 on Google for one of my
keywords.
The commitment of the staff is second to none, as they provide me with quick responses to not just SEO related but also general marketing queries. This is supported by the production easy to read reports so I can clearly understand what is being done to help the business.
After 3 years trying to place us on the first pages of any search engine, especially Google, trying all sorts of methods we could not get above page 4. Though trial and lots of error we had almost given up on getting any further for our main keywords.
Fortunately we heard by word of mouth about SEO Next and their performance in the SEO world. After a few phone calls and seeing their results we decided to spend the money we were spending on PPC on their services.
Now after 2 months we are on page 1 and our hits have obviously rocketed and I am a very happy man. Please pass on my details to anyone who wants to contact me to reinforce my delight in SEO Next.
Having a website is all the rage now and no matter how hard we tried we did not seem to be getting to the top of Google or any other search engine for that matter. So we had spent a small fortune on our new website and we had no option but to spend on paid advertising AND pay per click on the various search engines.
I have been stung too many times with other search engine companies promising allot, but in the end leaving me very anti SEO companies as a whole. Then we heard of a company offering a money back solution, SEO Next UK. After a short consultation and being left very confident in what they were about to do, I relented and started a new campaign with them and we haven’t looked back.
The whole reason I am writing this is, if you have a company which needs to be high on the search engines (who doesn’t) speak to the guys at SEO Next. Our phones do not stop ringing . and I have had to employ 2 more staff. I would recommend the whole team at SEO Next to anyone, apart from my competitors that is.
“We approached SEO Next to help use develop a comprehensive SEO campaign in a very competitive marketplace to complement a website that we had recently had built. We are happy to say that they deliver – great customer service, technically knowledgeable and explained everything in terms that are easy to understand. “
“They started promoting the most popular generic keywords and have moved on to the longer tail keywords, with great results. We are on page one for all the major search terms now and the enquiries have increased as a result. They offer great value for money and we have shown a great return on investment. We are delighted to be working with SEO Next on an ongoing basis and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a no nonsense approach to search engine optimisation.”
After being ripped off by one company and currently spending a lot of money with a well known online web directory I needed to reduce my advertising spend and gain more enquiries…this seemed impossible until I spoke to SEO Next.
Many of the larger SEO agencies cannot work on my small budget and have a high minimum spend. This is not the case with SEO Next, they understand everyone has to start somewhere and are prepared to help businesses grow. I told them I had x amount of money and I wanted to be number one in the UK for range cooker repair.
They have done it, and they have also nailed some other key terms for me aswell. A year ago I was one man in a van, now I am looking to get a office to and employ someone as a result of their work. Top job guys and I recommend you to all my friends in the trade now. SEO Next are one of the few suppliers I can actually boast about!
“As a small online business with limited resources we wanted natural SEO to work optimally for us as well as needing help in developing links with the many directory websites. In July 2009 before SEO Next started work for us, traffic to our website via search engines, i.e. natural SEO was 47% and after 3 months it is now more than 62%.
The link building programme is something that we could not have done ourselves and SEO Next have expertly charted the way through this minefield. The monthly reports are starting to become a valuable tool in developing our selling strategies.
We much appreciate the knowledge imparted by SEO Next and the personal service that they provide in setting up a SEO programme, the selection of keywords and in answering our SEO queries.”
