Tyler, Richard, "Anonymous" thanks for chiming in. It's nice to know the insiders' view matches my quick exposure. It's a challenge to all of us in the industry: how do we grow, provide a good service and not step on our laces as we go? Will Wow, looks like I hit a nerve.

Tyler, Richard, “Anonymous” thanks for chiming in. It’s nice to know the insiders’ view matches my quick exposure.

So why all the negative remarks? Another sell the world and don't even open an FTP SEO company. Or that the company was founded by Yale Students. Well contact Yale and ask them if they have had anything other then an application submitted by the owner Brian Ortiz and you will hear differently.

I used to work for SEOMatrix. They are concerned only with the sale. We were not allowed to do much of actually optimization for a site. It was more about the shuffle them through, lots of contact, but little work. Ya, it's a lot of bull. They hammer out the sales calls. New people all the time. They have no clue what they are selling but are reading from a computer screen/script. OK, now maybe I can forget them. --Richard -- vacationing in the "Old Country" I thought I’d never hear that name again … or at least I wished I never would.

All they do there is talk about what is going to happen but nothing ever gets done. Go in at least 10 pages on Google for SEOMatrix, anyone who has talked about them on those forums are / were clients. Oh, and have you noticed most of those links are just articles for their clients? SEOMatrix takes on this client or SEOMatrix and this client come together - disgusting. The worst part is the company has had the same problems come up again and again for years and they never seem to learn that what matters is the customers and not the money. They do not care about clients, and seeing you blog about this company in this way tickles me because they deserve every inch of bad rap they get - especially since, i am getting the feeling that they do not think this bad rap matters...

And no, they didn't steal your phrase I was making fun of their use of "white hat", (or black hat or friggin' chartreuse hat) when he didn't even have the sense to look at our site and realize we're an internet marketing firm. You see, the first hint is our title tag :) Hey Brian, thanks for stopping by.

I get calls or emails from guys like these occasionally & it always makes me chuckle that at the very least, had they taken 10 seconds to read my website, or even title tags, they would not be calling.
