SEO Testimonial

“... Seventy percent of my business comes directly
from our website ...”

My name is Don. My partner Jim and I own Granicrete Australia P/L. We had a website and thought that was good enough, but soon learned that a website is like a car, it just sits there if nobody drives it. I was contacted by [*BMG SEO Partner] and through a couple of conversations with them I was shown that my site did not rank on Google, not even in the top 10,000. However, just because someone says they are able to get your site ranked on Google does not mean they can.

I am a natural born skeptic, so of course I wanted proof. Long story short, I checked them out and found them to be a reputable company. Even so, I did not believe they could do as they claimed. I think the main reason I did not believe them was because I had heard it all before and tried a few large companies with adwords and all the rest, spending the big bucks and getting little to no results. When [*]said they could get me on the first page in a short period of time I figured that I might as well give them a try and see if they could deliver. Why not? I did not have to sign a contract for 12 months or anything like that.

Let's just say it took the team at [*] just about half the time they said it would to get me on the first page with every keyword I gave them. I was extremely impressed, but not as impressed as I have been with the continued support for the last 3 years! Seventy percent of my business comes directly from our website. A wonderful website that [*] built for us. If you are thinking of doing business with [*] I would recommend that you get started now and let Quantumlimx drive your website to success!

Dear [*BMG SEO Partner] Team

I write to say a huge thank you for all the wonderful work you have done for the rankings of my website on Google, which in turn has created a very positive impact on my bottom line.

To be honest, when i was first contacted by you, I was "the greatest sceptic", and in the back of my mind I was thinking "this probably won't work". However, I was hearing my competitors were doing loads of business through Google, so I decided I would have to give it a try if I wanted my business to grow. i knew I was one of the best, if not the best at what I do, but no one was finding me!

It's been nearly 2 years now, and at last count, we were sitting on 71 top 10 rankings in Google. 43 of which are number 1! I know the new keywords we have started to target will increase this figure even more. Our traffic continues to steadily increase as well. I couldn't have wished for better results.

Thanks to you, now the internet and referrals are giving me more work than I can handle.

I also would like to thank you for taking the time to understand my business, this was a really important factor in that you began to pre-empt what I required, hence I could get on with doing business. I don't even think about my rankings any more because I have such great faith in your team.

I have no hesitation in recommending your services to any business owner who wants to generate business from Google, and any business owner who is serious about thriving in this new internet dominated industry.

In fact, I've already recommended you to two business partners in another few ventures I'm involved in.

Thank you again.

As an IT consultant and an owner/operator of an online store, I am inundated by emails from companies offering SEO services making all manner of fantastic claims.

Knowing the depth of understanding required to deploy effective SEO and having been caught in a 12 month contract with another firm whose results were somewhat lacklustre, I was hesitant to commit to further expenditure in this area.

After making contact with the [*] team, I immediately gained the impression that I was onto a good thing. Everyone with whom I’ve dealt at [*] has been genuine, helpful , happy to explain what they are doing and most importantly why – and the results speak for themselves.

My online store is now receiving in excess of 4,000 visits per month, (compared with approximately 2,600 before [*] commenced work). We are exceeding our daily traffic targets and my site is gaining more traffic than another client of mine who’s business is ten times the size of my own, (in terms of annual turnover).

This result has been achieved in less than 6 months and traffic is still increasing. From direct experience I can say that not only do [*] techniques work but that they are exponentially more effective than some other systems out there. With [*]securing my store’s rankings and traffic I can get back to focusing on conversion. I look forward to a long and fruitful relationship with [*] knowing that they too are in it for the long haul.

"...Amazing results from an amazingly passionate team!"


When you began work on SEO for Big Red Bus Web Design I must confess that I didn‟t think we would get to page 1 of anything because almost every competitor we have undertakes their own seo.

I was already aware of the limitations of "back-yard‟ seo but with the rankings we now have, I realise the extraordinary difference in outcome by using real experts in the field.

This is no fluke.

[*BMG SEO Partner] has performed equally well for all our clients that have made the switch to [*]

Many, as we, are showing signs of improved profits, a marvel given these unstable economic times.

Amazing results from an amazingly passionate team!

Dear [*] Team. After three years, several thousands of dollars & two previous SEO companies promised to deliver, we knew exactly which page we wanted to be on when [*] began consulting with us over a year ago. There wasn’t much negotiation …page 1 Google for Outdoor Furniture or we were going elsewhere. With no obligation to stay and less to pay, it was pretty simple, we decided to give [*] a go.

It did take time, but there was constant communication from the team with suggestions for modifications to improve our rankings, backed up with monthly reports to show our improving results. Finally a SEO company who was listening to what we wanted and was acting on that information.

Reaching Google page 1 has been like hitting a major jackpot. The amount of inquiries that have turned into sales has exceeded our expectations. We’ve had to employ more staff to keep up with orders. We know there is only one reason our business has turned around and it’s because of the dedicated team at [*]

No hesitation what so ever to recommend [*] to other businesses. Contact us through www.outdoorfurnitureonline.com.au.

Thank you again to everyone at [*] for the exceptional job you do for our business.

Resort TV Testimonial

..."We have 44 apartments in the letting pool at Osprey Apartments and 59 apartments in the letting pool at Nautilus Resort Mooloolaba and have been using your service for many years at both resorts.

A large percentage of our guests are visiting the Sunshine Coast for the first time and are unfamiliar with attractions on offer. We always provide these guests with a local map indicating points of interest and also advise them to tune into our Resort TV channel to further educated themselves on what we have to offer. The feedback from this has always been positive with guests indicating they get a better feel for an attraction from this rather than just looking at a brochure.

Resort TV is a great marketing tool for both our resorts and the Sunshine Coast and results in many tours being booked through our reception desks.

Keep up the good work!"

Photography & Business Development Testimonial

Maike was contracted by SCTP to photograph our client’s holiday resort apartments so to advertise in our annual tourism publication 2007 edition. I was very impressed with the finished results and service that Maike had provided our clients.

The feedback from our clients was very good, they were very impressed on how Maike managed the photo shoots and took time in asking what they wanted to achieve.

I offered Maike permanent employment after seeing her high standard of service ethics, to manage our existing client base and create new clients by selling TV advertising for our company

Maike took our product to a whole new level and really excelled in her role as Sales & Account Manager, recording the highest sales achieved in a 6 month period.

I highly recommend Maike to any company who wishes to grow their business

General Marketing Testimonial

Maike, I must say that the work you’ve done on the launch of the What’s Happening_ website is brilliant! To come back from Canada and find it finally up and running and generating so much interest from TV and press, as well as clients wishing to book advertising space has been a most pleasant surprise. I always believed the concept would be successful but I don’t think it would have gotten off the ground in the manner it has without your marketing and sales expertise, and despite the very small budget you had at your disposal and a mere 3 weeks. Thank you also for making time to be there for the various media interviews. I wish I could afford to employ you full time! If the bookings keep coming in at the current rate, I may be making you an irresistable offer in the not too distant future! Ever so grateful

Photography Testimonial

Dear Maike
The photo shoot with your fantastic choice of locations and your direction was great fun, and the results _ well, we couldn’t have asked for better. Brendan and I found it was very hard indeed to choose just a few from such an excellent selection to use for our business card, poster and advert. We hope to be able to use more on our new website! The response since using the new material has been staggering, resulting in many additional gigs and bookings for weddings and other private functions. Thank you!

Photography Testimonial

I am delighted to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for the amazing work done by Maike Thiessen in photographing and putting together a marketing package for the sale of my home. Everyone who has seen it has commented on how beautifully the home is captured and presented – both real estate agents and prospective buyers alike. Maike is clearly a master photographer with an unusual insight into
angles, composition, and capturing the essence of the buyer’s desires. She also has an amazing creative writing talent which speaks to a prospective client’s emotions, paints a picture and arouses curiousity and serious interest. She is a delight to work with, and is a true professional.

Dear Maike
The catalogue has really come to life with your wonderful photos. Taking them on
the beach at sunrise did provide the stunning light you promised and really gave the jewellery a brilliance and shine no studio light could have produced. It was well worth getting up so early on that somewhat chilly Winter morning! I have a new line
planned _ designer handbags _ which I‘d love you to photograph. I look forward to
working with you on a regular basis.

Maike, the flyers look fantastic. I loved the photographs but seeing them incorporated into the end product - your layout and with the copy you’ve written are exactly what I envisaged. I’m thrilled! Thanks also for your referal to Randy, who like you said, is not just a nice guy and a true professional, but also gave me a really good price for the printing.

Branding & Graphic Design

We commissioned [*BMG Parnter) for the graphic arts and website design for our brand, Stroud Homes. Tight timeframes made for a difficult assignment, but the team at [*BMG Partner] handled it fine. Including a brand strategist in the process helped to create a well targeted portfolio of brand material. We've had many compliments on our logos and website, where the words "fresh" and "professional" are used. [*BMG Parnter's] work helped give us that boost of credibility we needed at the early stages of our venture.
