OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with EZ Rankings?

We needed someone to provide SEO services.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

CDRM Solutions do our SEO; at the beginning of each season, I give them the keywords I like, and then they send me a document to fill out. After that, they adjust everything and send it back for me to check and review it, and if necessary, I modify and send it back.

Their efforts also include making the content and backlinks. Overall, they do 90% of the job, and every season, they make changes.

What is the team composition?

I'm in contact with 4–5 members of their team, including their manager and someone who works on the backlinking, content, and PDF files.

How did you come to work with EZ Rankings?

I found them on a Google search and checked their website and reviews — I contacted several SEO providers but chose EZ Rankings based on their honesty. We used them for three months, and we had a good experience.

In addition to that, their price is good, and they're very committed to the job. I decided to continue working with them because they're flexible and gave me a good offer.

We've spent around $4,000 with them so far.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I'm satisfied with their work, and I never think of changing providers — whatever they say they will do, they do it.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I'd like to put the backlink on a more reputable website. I know it's not easy, but it's the only thing I'd like to improve.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I recommend working with them; we're satisfied with their work.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO of Stem Cell Cure.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with EZ Rankings?

I needed to get better rankings, so I hired EZ Rankings to help with my SEO.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

EZ Rankings provided SEO services. I started by giving them 3–4 projects and they did some keywords research and implementation for 4–6 months. I needed to rank for 15 keywords and wanted 4–5 keywords to show up on the first page within three months. In six months, I wanted all of my keywords to show up in the top 10 or top 20 search results. 

What is the team composition?

They had a project manager assigned to my project.

How did you come to work with EZ Rankings?

I found them online. They offered a more affordable package than other companies, so I chose to work with them. 

How much have you invested with them?

I invested $7,000–$8,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from January–August 2021.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

I’m very disappointed with the partnership. EZ Rankings never fulfilled their commitment. I worked with them for months and got not a single keyword on the first page of search results. They provided me with a monthly ranking and analytics report, but I was not satisfied with their SEO services. They were only able to rank 25%–30% of the list keywords that I gave them.

Whenever I complained about their work, they would ask for another month, blaming their ineffectiveness on Google’s changing policies and regulations. I had experts in digital marking look into their work and found out that what they were doing wasn’t good at all.

How did EZ Rankings perform from a project management standpoint?

Whenever I contacted them, they listened and responded well. Their communication was good despite the outcome of their work.

What did you find most impressive about them?

One good thing about EZ Rankings is that they were cooperative. From time to time, they implemented changes in the content on my website.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They need to fulfill what they commit to. If they can’t get us to rank on time, they should change the team and have more experienced people in their company.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

If you’re not satisfied after 1–2 months, you should be strict and ask them to fulfill the commitment.

I reviewed a number of vendors via Skype meetings and conf calls mostly in the USA and a handful overseas including EZ Rankings. I felt after all the Skype meetings, conferences and viewing the work that these companies did that EZ Rankings would be the group to go with.

My initial concern was speed of communication a they are in India and we are in New York but my concerns were unfounded.I have been able to reach various people at the company day or night, weekends, holiday etc. In fact in many ways communication with them is better then communicating with some groups in New Jersey.

Each of the professionals I listed had various responsibilities from project management to implementation to follow up/ Well organized

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Communication, honest, directness, professionalism, creativity, implementation, follow up. Historically American people like myself always seem to feel that using companies based overseas to do work for them like what EZ Rankings does us does not work. They have built in biases to working with foreigners which is wrong but has always existed.

Because of my own personal background of having interfaced with people form all over the world during my DHL Airways day I came to understand that people form all over the world can be worked with. In particular I have always looks at India as a fascinating country. Not only because of a rich thousand plus years history but because technologically they are quite advanced as evidenced by EZ Rankings and there people.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I odnt see any at this time.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to establish a best-in-class website that surpassed our competition’s online presence. Within our allotted budget, we hoped to improve rankings and traffic from PPC in a competitive SEO environment.

How did you select this vendor?

Our search focused on award-winning firms with strong reviews who ranked well for their own competitive search terms. EZ Rankings offered the perfect balance of affordability and superior quality.

Describe the project in detail.

This project focused on a major web redesign. EZ Rankings produced custom graphics including a new logo and creative content. They built several custom WordPress apps tailored to our unique needs. The frontend includes a customer portal and review system. Our employees can access the site via the backend admin panel. They had to complete all our demands within a tight, 30-day schedule.

EZ Rankings scaled their team to meet our demands. They assigned excellent individual project managers for both web design and SEO respectively. Having constant access to their director of business development helped our project progress smoothly from start to finish. They even worked weekends to get the project done on time with superior results. We didn't have any miscommunications. Rather, we always felt listened to and understood.

EZ Rankings built us an incredible, highly ranked platform without breaking the bank. The exceptionally beautiful and functional site delivers an incredible user experience for our customers. It really looks breathtaking. Their success is unprecedented in our past experiences with other SEO teams and companies we own.

Our rankings started at a baseline of zero. Now, we rank in the top 10 for numerous long and shorter longtail keywords. These competitive terms yield significant search volumes for our company.

They’re very consistent, reliable, and candid. They don’t make promises that they can’t deliver. If I tell them what I’m looking to achieve, they’ll find a way to do it for me.

You can negotiate—we received a small discount based on the volume of our business with them. They’ve always been great to work with. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
