Simply my recommendation would be to AVOID doing any business with Local Lighthouse.
There are many level of trickery and deceit in my dealing with two people at this company relating to the actual services they provide. A person needs to know specific questions to ask to determine what you are actually getting and for how much. Be so, so very careful or even better do business with a better SEO company. I'm looking.
Another level of serious unprofessional behaviors have come from dealing with Yvette, the first person with whom I spoke and later Jeff her supervisor. Yvette was the first person I was connected to by the recorded "Google" telemarketig call. She was friendly, charming and in our first conversation she expressed interest in the product my company sells in addition to helping it to get listed on the 1st page google and other search engines.
I was taken in by her to the point that I sent a $249 item for her to try free for 30-days. When that time was up, she agreed to pay for it, but my many attempts by phone and email to complete the transaction were in vane. To get fruther action it was neessary to begin involving Jeff, her supervisor in the process. This led to her agreeing to return it and email the tracking info. She did neither. Further emails resulted in her stating that she had her mom ship it and she would email me the tracking info when she got home. This was 4 days ago and no tracing info or product returned.

Received a call today that started out with a recording saying that they are calling from Google and have been trying to reach me about claiming my google information. Kept listening to the recording because we've been working with Google to resolve some issues regarding our business address. A woman came on the phone and said that they would be giving us 10 keywords and guaranteeing 1st page placement on Google, Yahoo and Bing for only $99/month.
I asked where she was calling from because I was under the impression that it was Google and she said that, "yes, we work for Google and provide SEO for mom & pop businesses like yours to guarantee that your company will show up on the 1st page within 30-90 days of starting your membership with us...we also work on keeping you on the 1st page for the entirety of your membership with us."
I asked her how they could do that when Google AdWords is much more expensive on a monthly basis and she explained that "because we are experts in what we do...it is all that we do and we are able to get you there." She didn't answer my question, just says that they guarantee it. She sent me an e-mail with a contract attached that had the breakdown in fees and also said she would send another e-mail with her contact information (I never received that e-mail). This is a complete scam!!! Beware!!!
Local Lighthouse is a company that specializes in preying on small businesses that are looking for help with SEO. Their customer service people are very agressive when initally contacting your company. In fact the customer service person even insinuated that we had contacted them first looking for help with SEO.
Local Lighthouse will extend of a money back guarantee, that they have no intention of following.
Local Lighthouse claims to help get your company listed on the first place of Bing, Google, or Yahoo within 30-90 days. The catch is the keywords that need to be entered into the search engine are so complex and obscure that general internet searchers are not going to ever use the exact phrase and find your website.
When we have reached out to their customer service, we have very little to no response.
The company called and introduced themselves as "google". They explained how they would enhance our website and make it come up in searches. Nothing was ever said about making a new website.
Once they were handed over to the person that was only supposed to be giving them the payment information, they started the entire pitch again. the problem with that is, that person did not know what was told to the first person. So everything was changed without us knowing it was different.
They created a new website for us that was nothing really useful to any customers that we would have looking at it. The name they gave it was nothing that our customers would use to find something in our line of business. The website also did not show up on Google at all. They had it coming up on Yahoo and Bing. I do not ever use either of those search sites. I do not know of many people that do.
When we comtacted them about not being satisfied they gave us a huge run around. We contacted our credit card company to stop the charges and contest the others. Local Lighthouse would only resend the terms that we supposedly agreed to. But that takes us back to them changing the stuff once the other person here got on the phone.
Finally, they sent us an email saying that they would charge back all funds to our card and cancel our account completely. We were pleased that they finally did that.
Now, not even 2 months later they have tried to chrage our card again for all of the fees.
Do Not do business with this company. They are completely dishonest! They completely misrepresent themselves. It is a complete rip off!!!!!
This company promised me first page placement on Google yelp yahoo and bing in three months or less or its free. I never got anywhere near first page and they refused to give me anything for free instead the manager argued with me for over an hour using every excuse Under the Sun including blaming me for my placement. They initially told me they were voted number one seo company three years in a row. They're just trying to get a setup fee and a monthly income off of believers like me. I've called up to complain about my placement and I've even been hung up on. This company should be put out of business before they wind up taking innocent people's money trying to make it in the bizness world
Stay away from these guys. They will rip you off. Promises , Promises, and more Promises. you will never receive any business from their fruitless internet advertising business.
All talk and no action. Their motto is " We dont want to take your money" LIES, LIES, LIes. Thats all they do . I received ZERO leads. Stay away from these guys.
