Website Redevelopment for GovCloud Network LLC
I have been working with Semalt for about 2 years on SEO but this is the first time I used them for website development. The service was outstanding. They were very responsive to my queries and very patient working with my staff. Their creative recommendations were "on point" as was the technical implementation. I plan to use them more in the future and would strongly recommend them to others.

Dear Dejan,
We would like you to refrain from strong statements like this one towards us. We are wondering how a person who is not our client can say such things? This negative wave tends to think a lot about the machinations of the competitors. If you have any proof or facts, please, contact our managers.
Good luck,
Semalt company.

This company is sketchy beyond all recognition. They are constantly crawling my site with their bots. Tried to tell them to take me out of their database. 100% blackhat. Called our google rep and reported them. Google is aware of them out of Ukraine.

Dear LogoTags,
Our crawler is not harmful for you. A Semalt crawler is a technical bot of the webmaster tool Semalt.com. According to the software algorithm, Semalt crawler bots visit websites and gather statistical data for our service simulating real user behavior: unique IP, browser, display resolution, etc. This information is used exclusively within the Semalt.com project and isn’t revealed to a third party. Our crawler bots have 100% bounce rate and don’t click on advertising banners (cpc, cpa, cpm systems) or extend links. So, there is no need to look for some hidden motive or conspiracy if your website is visited by our crawler. All the visits are automatic and random. If you still have any questions, you can watch this video http://semalt.net/. If you do not want it on your site, you can easily block it https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2795830?hl=en.
Best wishes,
Semalt Company.
Excellent customer service

Dear Milan Soni,
All SEO companies have a basic rule - all backlinks are removed, when a client stops paying or terminates cooperation. We are not an exception. Before starting dealing with Semalt, you were informed that we would do like this as soon as you stop working with our company. Please, next time be more attentive in such situations. If you are still interested in our service, we will gladly continue our cooperation. Contact your manager.
All the best,
Semalt Company.
You did a great job
You did a great job! I pay only for results they promise. The rankings of the site has got better and I have more clients.

Semalt is a SCAM, run away
I have been lured by A Horrible Witch, an ugly an false individual from Semalt to take promotion of my e-commerce page; This Incompetent Witch
clearly expressed herself that I need to be sure that I have enough stock to cover the demand when I start the promotion with Semalt.
I had one contact, where somebody asked me to change the H1 of my page and write converting text in the page description. Which didn't cause any improvement, contrary, visits almost stopped, organic traffic is around 3 people per day and the visibility of the page - better not to say.
But The Witch started to send me reports "how my page performs in a great way", all reports invented and fabricated by semalt, completely fake. Google Analytics shows some weird activity sometimes a jump in visits, bit checking it this were visits less than 1 s, generated by semalt to improve statistis.
Waist of time and money, it is a scam of the century, they want your money and then they feed you with fake data thinking that you are so stupid that you will not remark.
Stay away and do your own promotion efforts, you will be better of.

Dear Mrs Lalos
Thank you for your review. We have looked into your case and would like to break it down to provide more information for other users.
During our partnership, we have mentioned errors that you should fix to make sure they do not prevent your site from getting higher rankings. We have also given you recommendations on how to get better positions faster. Our manager had sent you actual and true reports which you were also able to see on your dashboard.
Considering all of this, we can state that your criticism is highly dubious, as you didn’t follow our recommendations and accused our company in reports falsification which is absolutely false.
We wish you the best of luck. Have a nice day!

+++++ BLACK HAT SEO +++++ These guys will work wonders for your ranking on Google in the short term, but in the long term when Google's algo realises what your website is doing, it will dissapear from all search results. They are rude and threatening when you cancel your subscription and then they remove all the backlinks from your account. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Dear James Watson,
Google’s algorithms change constantly and any way no website is immune to falling in SERP, especially disappearing. It doesn’t depend on the fact that you stopped working with us. Any time some of our clients wants to end cooperation with us, we warn them about such possible variants of scenarios in advance, but not threaten. And at the end, each of our clients before starting working with us agrees with the offered conditions. One of them is that all backlinks are removed, when a client stops paying or terminates cooperation. You were warned.
Best wishes, Semalt.

Dear Rob Burns,
We reviewed your specific case and want to note that your comment doesn’t reflect the actual situation. In the beginning of our cooperation, we told you all the conditions and also notified that we will delete all backlines. In case, you start only a trial month - $0,99 cost, which is the lowest price on the market for SEO products and then stop paying. Anyone can provide you with backlinks forever for such amount of money.
We wish you the best of luck. Have a nice day!
