Pay for performance SEO services, also known as performance-based SEO, is nothing new under the sun. Some call it pay for results or pay for rankings.

Nevertheless, the goal of pay for performance SEO services is lessening the risk of standard SEO services by requiring customers to not pay until they have been ranked.

This sounds good at first glance, as pay for performance SEO services sounds like a no brainer that is sure to keep money in your pocket until SEOs perform their work.

I mean after all, companies have pay for performance pay structures that pay regular or bonus pay based on meeting certain company objectives.

So surely if it works for companies paying employees, then surely pay for performance can work for SEO services.

To some extent, we’ve all had an experience with some sort of pay for performance type of an agreement.

Some of us have had good experiences while others have had either bad or downright nightmares of being had by pay for performance agreements.

In this post, I share my top six (6) reasons why pay for performance SEO services fail for both SEOs and customers, and how both parties should go about structuring sound pay for performance SEO services and agreements to ensure a real “win-win” scenario and working relationship.

I receive many inquiries and phone calls on a weekly basis from potential customers asking about pay for performance search engine optimization (SEO).

Some think that there is fine print and hidden strings attached to such a too good to be true SEO offer.

Some have never heard of such a SEO offering, and think that it is a scam of some sort.

Some are skeptical based on previous experience with a SEO professional or firm that took advantage of their company using deceptive SEO practices.

Some knew about and even asked for deceptive SEO strategies and practices all for the sake of making money.

All the while, others unknowingly were taken advantage of with a $99 SEO offer that was too good to be true by some fly-by-night SEO company or a Fiverr deal promising traffic – not qualified traffic.

But for every bad experience, there are customers who have yet to experience the good, the bad and ugly of SEO.

And before you have a nightmare experience, or should you have already experienced one, I’ll tell you point blank why pay for performance is your best option.

As a small business owner with a website, have you experienced the following emotions when wanting to have your website optimized for search engines?
