It’s an unfortunate truth that the SEO industry is (and has been for a long time) plagued by black hat SEO practitioners, spammers, and just bad SEO providers in general. Since anyone can register a domain and claim to be an SEO expert, there are plenty of cheap, low-quality SEO services available for sale from cheap, low-quality SEO providers. Some of these bad SEO providers are looking to take advantage of unsuspecting site owners, taking your money (however nominal a fee it may seem) and either A)running off with doing no work or B)doing shoddy SEO work that actually hurts your site more than it helps. Unfortunately, when a website is whacked by a Google Penalty because of a spammy SEO campaign, be it a manual or algorithmic penalty, it’s not the bad SEO provider left picking up the pieces; all of the consequences become the responsibility of the site owner.
