Here's a few tips to consider while searching for any seo work to be done. These rules arent cast in stone, naturally there is always exceptions to the rule, and there is some I missed, I think they were pointed out before but I never updated the post.

* Before you even blink an eye for anyone, have them send you examples of search results with their work, and what they have listed in the engines. Ensure the domains they are showing are indeed thiers, and check the serps history on those domains, to see if its a fluke one time thing, or if it has some weight and substance to them.
* Alot of Seo?s will show you what their ?clients? results are or were. Stop talking to these guys, you want to see results they have for thier stuff. What they did on someone elses stuff with someone elses resources has nothing to do with your site and what you have, or with what they have to bring to the table. Unless that client is offering you their resources, its completely irrelevant.
* Dont pay anyone that shows you long tail search terms like ?barbie cummings suck the black wang? One nicely placed link will give someone that, and too easily done by accident. If they cant show you a big term, they arent worth paying. ?Milfs, Big Cocks, fetish, free porn, black porn, gay porn, THOSE ARE KEYWORDS TO RANK FOR, not ??cocking milfs buttfucked backwards?. It is possible for quality search engine guys to have several small terms and longer tail terms and still be ok, you have to judge for yourself. They may have the brains and just not the link power for the big ones.
* When you find someone who actually knows. Best be ready to go ahead with the deal and be prepared to pay. If they do have a clue, the chances of them helping you for a fee isnt very high, and if they do, they will expect just compensation. Some of my terms made high 5 figures since the sites went live so its not info a seo would be happy to give away for 2-3k. If you are looking for good people, in this field it will cost you.
* Expect a backlink/site developement budget. If you plan on taking on a project and expect to take search engine ranks away from big boys, then you will need a network to do so. If not from your own neighbourhood, then from link purchase. This isnt a one time, monthly thing, you will want them longterm. If the adult SEO you are talking to hasnt mentioned it, you will want to know where its going to come from.
* Know what you want. And know what the person you are willing to pay big dollars to wants and is capable of. Know what hes linking with, know what he is building pages with, take note of everything he did on his sites, and on your sites. You will not have this type of access to his or her brain forever, so use it wisely and get as much info as you can.
