I started using Stellar-eMarketing several years ago at a time when terms like “optimization” were not generally known (at least not to me or my associates). I took a chance with them and started making monthly payments hoping that it might help a little, but not having much hope for a big change. I did have some confidence in their abilities, I just didn’t think my business was the type of business that could benefit much from the web. I had a web site much earlier than most of my competitors, but only used it (and only thought it was good for) a source of detailed information that I could direct people to with other forms of marketing. After about a year of no real change in business, and my partner complaining about what we were paying for, we started to notice increases in qualified customers as a direct result of the web, and the increased ranking. They also had some suggestions about marketing in general that were actually good, which I didn’t expect. It has now been several years that they have kept my company ranked within the top few positions (often 1st), and my web site has gone from having almost no influence in our performance, to being a major contributor.
