I'm a web developer for small businesses in very competative markets. I spent many years doing SEO work, and was an editor for a major SEO newsletter/ebook -- so I know the ground. Now however, I don't have the time to focus on SEO work. I have often asked Rick to help my clients and he has done so with great success. He is persistant, reliable. knowledgeable and willing to try new ideas. The task of search engine optimization can be extremely tedious -- requiring diligent, on-going work -- because it's a moving target and the playing field is never level. Many website owners make the mistake of inserting a bunch of keywords, and then taking up some 'free' offer to submit their website to 1000's of search engines and directories. This is a great mistake and always backfires.
Rick's approach is to carefully assess and locate the niche market and then persistantly, little bit by little bit (a natural approach that search engines like) gently nudge them upwards in the rankings.
I can with great comfort and authority recommend Rick to take on anyone's SEO needs.

Rick kept pushing me to write articles linked to BidonTravel, in order to improve its search engine positioning. Well, I was shocked. Just three days after Rick submitted the first one, the article came up number three in Google for its most important keyword. I told Rick the same day, but he said I’d better check again. We were now number one!
I highly recommend the expertise of SearchSummit for improving a company's web site exposure through search engine placement. I noticed an immediate improvement in site traffic, which has lead to a direct increase in business. I travel a great deal and Rick was conscientious and thorough in his presentation and follow-up. He is professional in all his work.

Our new company was looking for ways to have a better presence on the Internet, not only for our current clients, but to attract new business as well. Several other companies we contacted were interested in telling us how much their services would cost, but wouldn't take the time to elaborate on what the course of action should be and why. Rick Archer at SearchSummit was extremely helpful in discussing the intricacies of web searches and links, and outlined a plan to increase the traffic to our web site tailored to our needs at this time. We have seen a significant difference since he implemented these changes and appreciate that he continues to monitor and suggest additional directions we can take in the future.
Two years ago we upgraded our site. It was a beautiful design but we lost all of our page rankings and our internet business came to a stand still. We hired Rick Archer with SearchSummit. He did a very profound site evaluation and provided a master action plan. We began implementing his plan immediately, yielding instantaneous results. The road to internet E-Business marketing is a very circuitous, quickly changing one. His plan included long and short term goals to increase traffic so we are continuously using his suggestions, as the road map changes on an ongoing basis. Rick is a straight shooting, get the job done kind of guy. If you want to increase web traffic, call Rick.
My web site ranks number one in Google for my primary key word phrase. It has remained in the top three positions in Google ever since Rick did his magic. I get all my book cover business from this alone.
I contacted Rick after using a large SEO firm for a few years. Rick is knowledgeable on the SEO tactics and very accessible. He allows you to continue to have control over your own site. I get to work with the same person every time since Rick Archer is the owner of SearchSummit. All his SEO work is done on my actual domain and not some special domain as is done by many SEO firms. This is important since the work I pay for remains on the domain that I own and control. You should seriously consider these factors when choosing a SEO firm.
As a little internet puppy I spent a tiny bit of money on an SEO, was #1 for 6 months, then got blown off the search engines because my SEO was using unethical techniques. Then I went to a highly paid SEO company which constantly told me to "wait" and although they did succeed in getting me back into the top ten, it took 9 months and I was transferred through 3 different account reps. When I suddenly got bounced back into the 20's my high-priced SEO just told me to "wait" some more! Rick Archer was just the remedy I needed. Reasonably priced and always available, Rick tells me what needs to be done and I do what I can on my own and pay him to do what's beyond my capacity. It's a perfect arrangement. He located spammers with sites ranking above mine and we worked together to get them blown away. I was back on the first page within two weeks and have been gradually climbing higher ever since.
Creative Edge is the largest waterjet company in the US. Once we started following up on the leads we got due to Rick Archer's work on our web site, our business flourished as never before. We advertise in all the trade journals and get plenty of referrals and repeat customers, but our web site now generates over 70% of our business.
I'm snowed with business! Whatever you're doing, don't stop!
Here is some hard earned wisdom; Search Engine placement isn't a science - it's an art. I discovered that the hard way. First I tried it on my own and found I wasn't a SE Placement Artist and then I tried a "Big Name" search engine placement company and I found that corporate techniques should not be mistaken for search engine position art. Finally, I found Rick Archer, Artist.
When I came to SearchSummit my site was on page 45 of Google and I knew nothing about why or how to change it. In just a few months my site is on page 2 and at the rate it is moving, will be on the first page within a month. Since using Rick's advice I have increased my daily hits by 400%. If you want to understand how to get your site moving quickly I highly recommend talking to Rick at SearchSummit.
Hi Rick,
I came across your site whilst searching for information on dynamic sites/search engine listings.
I work for a web design and hosting company that sells dynamic sites, and as a marketer am continually looking for information to provide to my clients on how to optimize their sites for search engines.
There is so much information out there, but often you have to wade a lot of unnecessary padding to get to the real point - particularly in newsletters, and especially American ones!
Your information is so succinct and well written, it stood out miles above everything else I spend all day reading and so I felt compelled to drop you a line.
I intend to start my own internet business this year and will, without doubt, refer back to your information.
Thanks for being a breath of fresh air!
Kind regards
Bethan Barnfield
