Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

I hired these guys back in March 2010. Sales rep Marc Cherenson spoke a very good line, guaranteeing my company would be in the first page of search results with Google, yahoo and Bing. He assured me I would have more business than I could handle. I paid this company $7000 up front and even allowed them to rebuild my website for an additional $1500.00 which turned out to be a disaster. A 15 year old could build a better site!None of the links have ever worked. SearchEnginePartner was suppose to implement onsite and offsite SEO, including facebook and twitter, neither of which have ever been completed. I designed and paid up front to have a calculator placed on my website, which to this day the SearchEnginepartner engineers could not complete-stating it was too complicated. I subsequently hired another company,paying them the same amount I had already paid SearchEnginePartner for the same work, and the calculator was installed in less than 24 hours .My complaints fell on deaf ears as the only person a customer will ever speak with at Search Engine Partner is Marc Cherenson the sales rep. You will get responses from support@searchenginepartner ,but only by email and most of the time it is disrespectful and downright demeaning. The sales rep claims that the over 600 engineers working on these projects were 100K plus business owners at one time or another and treat their customers with disrespect due to their present employment earnings.  The latest mishap with SearchEnginePartner came when I was contacted by a completely unrelated SEO firm asking me if I was impressed with my 30 day trial of SEO with their firm, which I did not request. After an investigation, it has been proven that SearchEnginePartner created an email pretending to be me, and asked this other SEO company to do the work, for FREE that I had paid SearchEnginePartner over $7000.00 to do.  These guys are fraudulent and sneaky. Do not send them any money. This is being turned over to the AG's office for further investigation and possible prosecution. I requested on several occasions to have a meeting, face to face, with the so called engineers handling my account. After various excuses by the sales rep, this never happened. As it turns out, the corporate address they use,777 Glades Rd Boca Raton, is nothing more than a drop box. Beware-do not employ SearchEnginePartner-they are a huge ripoff and are fraudulent from beginning to end.

This sounds like what happened to me too; I came to Search Engine partner after working with few other companies. I was not happy with any of them. One problem after another and the degrading tone; it was too much to take. So took my business else where. I am happy with my current company as they are able to help with both SEO, hosting and web maintenance. They are local and found them after getting referral from friends.

I read your report and I have had one bad experience after another with these types of companies.  Can you give me the name of the company that got the clock put on your website in 24 hours?  Would you recommend them?  I am looking for someone to provide upgrades to my website, Manage my PPC, and SEO. 
Thank you.
