I'd like to thank you for the outstanding job you've done on New River's website over the last eighteen months. We've gone from being unranked in Google and other search engines to being highly ranked - number 1 or 2 on important key word areas.
I know this isn't easy. For our business there are a lot competitors wanting those spots. Your work with our designer to re-do the look of the site has also made it much more professional and interesting for visitors.
According to our website statistics, visits to the New River website have more than quadrupled and now 28% of site visitors add it to their favourites. The business results for New River have been a major increase in new customer enquiries from both New Zealand and overseas. So thanks very much Michael!!

Michael provided an outstanding professional service. He went way beyond expectations and certainly exceeded my expectations (and they were high!) adding value in areas other than SEO as well.

...I began investigating SEO principles. The first thing I realized is that there is a lot of conflicting advice. The second thing I found almost as quickly is that there are a LOT of disreputable SEO "experts" and companies engaging is shady practices. Seems like they work very short term, but tend to blow up and get a site banned shortly thereafter.
Michael knew his stuff. Then I found out that he could be contracted to SEO my site and a jumped all over it. Believe me, you get your money's worth - every penny - and then some.
If you're on the fence, do it! If you're skeptical, don't be. The results are worth it and you won't be disappointed.

The Best in SEO - It's hard to explain how much of a help you were in creating our website. You are a true professional, and we couldn't have done it without you. You took us from a completely original forum, to a one of a kind setup. Thank you soooo much for all of your help, and I will make sure to pass you on to anyone who needs the hookup.....well not the competition of course.
Have no doubts about Michael, he is a true gentleman and a true professional
