Results and Risk Disclaimer
What we promise, what we do not, and why. Please read this before ordering.
The short version
- We guarantee the work. We do not guarantee a ranking position, traffic, leads or revenue.
- Google controls its search results and can change them at any time.
- Timelines on this website are typical ranges, not promises.
- Illustrations and examples on this website are illustrative, not real client results.
1. No guaranteed rankings or results
Search engine optimization improves the likelihood that a business appears for relevant searches. It does not and cannot guarantee a specific position in Google Search, Google Maps or the local Map Pack, a number of visitors, calls or enquiries, or any amount of revenue. Anyone who promises a specific position is promising something they do not control.
Local results depend on factors outside our influence, including the searcher’s location, the strength and behaviour of competitors, the category you operate in and the way Google’s systems weigh those signals at any moment.
2. Third-party platforms
Our services depend on platforms we do not own, including Google Search, Google Business Profile, Google Maps, Bing, domain registrars, hosting companies and directories. Those platforms can change features, policies, layouts and ranking systems, suspend or remove listings, or withdraw services without notice. We are not responsible for such changes, although during the 90-day period we will respond to them within the scope of your plan.
3. Timelines are estimates
Where this website mentions timeframes, such as two to six weeks for first movement on a profile or one to three months for website rankings, these are typical ranges based on ordinary conditions. Your results may be faster, slower or different, particularly in competitive cities and categories.
4. The 90-day commitment
If your Google Business Profile has not improved in local search within the first 90 days, we keep optimizing at no extra charge. This is a commitment to continue working. It is not a guarantee of outcome and does not entitle a client to a refund on the basis of ranking position alone. Refunds are covered in the terms of service.
5. Examples and illustrations
Maps, listings, search phrases and page layouts shown on this website are illustrations created to explain how local search works. They are not screenshots of client accounts and do not represent results achieved for any particular business. We do not publish testimonials, ratings or statistics that we cannot support.
6. AI search and answer engines
We structure content so that search engines and AI systems can read it accurately. We cannot guarantee that any AI assistant, chatbot or answer engine will mention, recommend or link to your business.
7. Your responsibilities
Results depend partly on things only you can do: supplying accurate business information, completing Google’s verification, delivering a service customers want to review, asking for those reviews and keeping your details current. Information you provide must be true. Inaccurate details can lead to suspension of a listing, for which we are not liable.
8. Not legal, financial or tax advice
Guides and pages on this website are general information about search marketing. They are not legal, financial or tax advice. Regulated professions such as law, healthcare, finance and insurance have their own advertising rules, which differ by country. You are responsible for making sure your marketing complies with the rules that apply to you.
9. External links
We link to third-party resources such as Google’s documentation because they are useful. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content.
