Found out my current SEO company supposedly uses shadow websites to get rankings. Not entirely sure but have read this a few places online. Overall, you read good sentiment about the company, but low reviews can certainly be found. Which SEO company should I hire? I have a website that uses Wordpress. I find Wordpress a bit complicated. How important are meta tags? It does the basics, but it's annoying at times. I don't think my SEO company even does anything with my website. They give me about 13 keywords to show up on Google, and my business shows there for those keywords. Wouldn't mind have 20 keywords or more. I don't know much about SEO. Would rather dump money in organic search than AdWords. At the moment, they're charging me $700/yr. I pay all upfront. Otherwise, it would cost more. One thing I dislike is they have primary owner permissions/privileges on my Google Business account. Do not know why that is really needed and I was hesitant at the time to grant that permission which is now higher than mine. I questioned this about a year ago, and their explanation was that it "leaves them with the full responsibility of anything that happens with changes or ranking to the listing." If I cancel, what happens? Thoughts on this?
