Higher Visibility LLC Higher Viz Memphis Tennessee
Negligent company. After 18 months of Higher Visibility Managing our SEO for our site (April 2013 to October 11, 2014), it got a failure grade by their own SEO analytical tool (Instant SEo Report).
Recently we terminated our contract with Higher Visibility for poor performance. We were loyal customers for 18 months. For 18 months Higher Visibility was managing SEO. Shortly after our relationship terminated, we entered my URL into your own SEO evaluation tool and, the website that Higher was managing for 18 months received a failing grade F. The tool indicated that many things such as title tags needed fixing. There was many things that could have been easily addressed on the backend of our website which were not addressed and which the company made no effort to address during the past year. We know because the password to our website was changed for security reasons early into the 18 month relationship to the website. This was not relayed to Higher Visibility. The company never requested the new password because they never sough to do any work on the backend of our website after the initial work at the beginning of 18 months.
The companies own ranking reports (we have copies) will show that none of the over 100 keywords being targeted ranked 1-3 from April 2014 to October 2014. The drop in performance of the website each time Google had an update indicated that the techniques being used by Higher is not that of which Google approves. Each time the website performance dropped we were the ones calling Higher to inform them and request an explanation. In one instance they took 3 weeks to explain there were some recent Google updates. It is as if no one was monitoring our website. An SEO relationship should be based upon performance and Higher Visibility by its own metrics get an F grade.
We sought a partial refund of money paid to Higher Visibility for SEO for its failure to adequately manage our SEO campaign during the six month period from April - September 2014. During this period a total of $2700.00 was paid to Higher. On November 5, 2014 Ericka Milford, Diurector of Client Services stated that she spoke to "senior management" and was told that because we were no longer customers and they did not have access to our metrics. Apparently this IT company does not keep backup of its own files. Negligent management.
We are seeking of refund of moneys paid to Higher Visbility for the period April - October 2014 when the company failed to perform by its own metrics. We do not believe it is acceptable for the company to collect money for SEO over an 18 month period while giving its own work an F Grade! We believe we were Ripped Off. We are willing to share printouts and proof of our claim to anyone upon request.
HigherVisibility, LLC.'s principal, Mr. Adam Heitzman has informed us that his personal philosophy is that his clients success are the heart of the business. As a successful businessman, Mr. Heitzman feels it is critical to listen to his clients and respond properly. By always putting his customers first, Mr. Heitzman hopes to maintain HigherVisibility as a successful search marketing agency both now and for many years to come.

We hired HigherVisibility in April of 2012. After beating them up on price and the amount of services to be provided, we felt good about the project going in. About 60 days into the process we noticed that we had dropped organic ranking with Google on every single keyword that we had hired them on.
We contacted Google to investigate why we had dropped organically. We have friends within Google that researched it and gave us a report. Turns out that they have been using "BOTS" to randomally create false links and and generating fake back-links.
According to Google, Google penalizes such activity which resulted in us dropping in organic view. We presented the results to HigherVisibility, they did not respond. Instead they sent us another bill even though we disputed their efforts and notified them to stop services.
We hired an outside firm to report the work performed by HigherVisibility, they came back with an alarming report. They notified us that the following services were not performed as per contract, No Sponsored blog posts, No social book marking, No blog consulting, No social book marking icons, No web design, No conversion tracking, No indication of article writing and syndication, They also did not perform on the the number of keywords as per contract. Majority of the backlinks and URLS came out to be dead links/urls.
We contacted our attorneys to demand our money back. They countered with a lawsuit for around $22,000 for the services they did not perform but rather tried to collect on. They had their bank call me which is in bed with this company. We have since taken them to Superior Court of Washington State. I will keep you posted on the progress.
