Hi,

I am looking to hire someone to optimize my website www.brick7.com.
Kindly forward me your proposals for this job. Please include the following items in your proposal:

1) Your minimum commitment (the minimum rankings you can achive) for this project.

2) Rates for this project.

You should be specific as to what keyword phrases you want highly ranked. Your meta tag indicates "job,jobs,free jobs,jobs search engine,find job,search jobs,want jobs,online jobs,Brick7,search all jobs,jobs in US ,US" so I'll warn you ahead of time, you'll need more than the average link scheming SEO. You'll need someone who can work the webpage content. Other than the Brick7 keyword, the rest will require skillful diligence. Make sure that the SEO service you pick can provide you with real time examples of competitive keyphrase battles. keyphrases such as: jobs in Delray Beach should rank well, incidentally and not exclusively. Things like "career in Chemicals & PetroChem" should also be easily ranked as a side-effect of ranking stuff like "US job search".

I actually worked for a job search site run by a conglomorate of Canadian universities, tough game. It'll take some pretty neat SEO to become a player. Good luck and don't be easily pursuaded by the linking strategists. You need solid, old-fashioned web page optimization.

We are interested to take this up, please have a look at our website http://liveperson.in/seoservices.htm

From the landing page: "Here are some search engine optimizations tips.
2.1 Use forum signatures esspecially participate in forums which does not use nofollow tag for signature link.

2.2 You can even buy signature from respected forum posters ..."

Really poor advice dude.

Hi Fred,

I was impressed with your initial analysis of the website.
Are you interested in taking this project? If yes, please send me quotation for this.

I really see the potential in your web project but it will need some serious work in order to compete better in your industry.

Landing page needs rebuild, far too many links that don't adequately return value to the landing page. Landing page indicates very little about what you want the search engines to consider important keyphrases. Optimized content (headings, paragraphs even images) absolutely needs to support your primary keyphrase targets. Secondary and auxiliary keyphrase will come naturally by focusing on primaries "job search site, US jobs etc.)

Google cache is OK but Code Validation indicates serious crawling issues (complication between closing </div> and closing </html> which I've never seen before but probably isn't too serious to fix, maybe deleting on closing </div>. Needs experimenting.). The point here is that you need to clean up the code even though Google offers the sloppiest code ever recorded by mankind, they reward for clean code, it makes it appear that you care about your pages.

Every city page has the same generic explanation "About Jobs Albuquerque
Brick7 is your free job site for Albuquerque. Browsing and searching jobs in Albuquerque is fast and ..." Not a bad idea but way too replicated looking. You need new, unique info about each city for this to be effective.

Change Albuquerque for Cleveland, then same for Denver. Too robotic, too automated looking.

Your backlink buddies are completely inadequate. You need superior content in order to attract quality, naturally generated inbound links, or else build a corporate blog outside the domain to meet your industry standard's need for backlinks of quality.

etc. lots of little things too (anchor title attributes need filling in, alt tags, Titles, uniquely crafted Descriptions Keyword tags ... it never ends in SEO.) You need serious on-site SEO and that will require a professional, in your industry. They'll cost money but anything more than $35/webpage would be squeezing you because you have sooo many pages, now Google shows 11,000. You cannot imagine the power you can harness from 11,000 well-optimized uniquely crafted webpages. Enormous keyphrase reach.

The whole overhaul should be staged in phases, do these 50 now, those 50 next month ... over the course of a year. Any fly-by-night lickity-splt-fix-up search engine optimizer should be avoided.

I also personally find there are too many search engine ads for my liking, not from an SEO perspective but from a marketing point of view. It's almost like the site is all about search engine ads.
