I am in the process of having a website built for my business. I received a email on or around October 12, 2016 that my website was ready to be presented to the world. It stated that I only needed to choose which package I wanted:Bronze, Gold etc. The Bronze was the least expensive so I choose that. I was under the impression that it was something that my web builder had set up.

When I consulted my web builder he stated that he did not set that up. He stated that he received a phone call from the same people (he believed) and he told them that he was not interested. I then canceled this membership. Search Engine Started Up responded by saying they cancelled my service, but since I had already paid, my business would be advertised for the next 30 days.

Search Engine Start Up then attach the business name of which I was using and had purchased for my website to some other designs that was not mind. They therefore made it impossible for me to use that name.

I do state that Search Engine Start Up is truly a scammer on the internet and I caution others to be aware of them. Their site do not list any phone number nor physical contact address.

This company has called me using a robo dialer daily for the last week. It used the called id 618-355-1134.

There is no way to stop the call until it hangs up on me. Other reports on the web indicate that it is a scam.

yet another call from searchengine

Thanks for the feedback on this SEARCH ENGINE START UP... I'm always wary of any calls like that & especially since starting a new business I've gotten too many scam calls. ALWAYS CHECK who you deal with or give info to.....

I was wondering what this is all about!

Same thing, received a call giving me code #4173 for a discount and what not. I went online to try to figure out what's going on... thank you! Good to know it is a scam, I thought Google had sent this to me when I registered our domain. Any new business starter will fall into it, and they know it!

Just created a website a few days ago, today I was sent a text message from this weird 256 area code phone number asking me to go to www.searchenginestartup.com & use a promo code 4173 to save $99. The text further stated that I needed to act quickly because something about needing to register my website to a search engine.. I then called the number from my text inbox and a weird recording came on said something very quickly and hung up on me. I began to search the internet for scams related to this and found this page, last post was back in 2010. But be aware 7 years later they're still up to it. This has scam written all over it. Don't be a victim..

I started receiving phone calls from search engine startup.com after I made my Google account for Google Places. They either got my number there or from hostgator.com. When I realized it was a scam I told them not to call back. They have called back several times. Mostly automated systems calling me. A guy named David will not give me his last name. When asked for his last name he laughed and hung up. I am going to try to file criminal charges for harassment against the company since I have off today using their automated system and also told them in person not to call my phone again. They called from illinoise number, California number, and a Texas number.

Typical robocall about needing to register and index my recently completed website. However, i have a free and easy app that came with my hosting fee and it’s listed everywhere just fine. They don’t even give you an option to try free for 1 month or so before committing. Instead, they state the total fee to get started as $329.99, including the 1st month fee of $29.99 and give you a $300 discount code. I decided to see what was up with the so-called promotion and tried to enter the discount code the robocall gave me, 7141, but it said incorrect code. All i know is i developed my own site, did my own seo and used the available app i had to list it everywhere and i’m already ranked in google search results in 1 week. Just create your website index file and submit to google and you’ve already done 85% of the necessary listings. Bing and yahoo have little relevance these days, so don’t sweat it. Search engine startup is a total scam for unsuspecting people they blanket robocall.
