Featured review
This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I lost hundreds of $ in business due to these scam artists. Not only did they provide me with no service (just hijacked my good internet presence and took credit for it) but they left a nonfunctioning phone number on my searches which meant customers couldn't reach me at all and even thought I was closed. The negative reviews I received during this time, ruined my exceptional rating. TERRIBLE company!

This company charged me hundreds of $ and did nothing to improve my internet visibility. They no longer answer my queries. Just as well as previous answers were not really answers but stalling tactics to keep billing me.
Do not use this company, period.

They were horrible and unprofessional. Getting mad and acting like a child when I told them their service was not satisfactory (paid hundreds of dollars for a fake lead). In fact their "marketing experts" will tarnish your brand with their tacky websites that look spammy. I am a photographer and they put up photos that weren't even mine and didn't even match my style or brand (some marketing expert...)
Fantastic customer service - Gave me the run around when I wanted to cancel, gave me attitude to the point of snapping and hanging up on me. Chris just acted like a child when I told him I didn't want to be apart of their scam anymore.
Do not fall for their scam. Google does not have an SEO company. There are no partnered SEO companies.

DO NOT sign up with BeRanked. They charge you astronomical fee's when you try to cancel after they do not deliver on their promises.

They say that they will get you on the first page of Google - and it is a LIE. Customer service is awful and we have not gotten any leads from them and have paid out of 800.00.

The cancellation department is the worst - they are rude, inconsiderate it and even cursed at me over the phone after they tried to bulling me into paying their ridiculous UNDISCLOSED cancellation fee's.

It's really, REALLY strange how each of these "complaints" come from accounts that are brand new, with no other reviews or complaints, and they are all quite similar. I've noticed this while researching this company for myself before moving forward...the "complaints" would be convincing if the person obviously trying to sabotage them hadn't been so overzealous in doing so. On one site they even go on to promote another similar company...tsk, tsk. You should be ashamed of yourself, "Mr. Hacker"...(ONE of the fake aliases). I really would like some actual, genuine feedback for BeRanked.com from an actual customer, and you're just making it more time consuming for me to do so.

This company is the worst ! They are scammers, they continuously feed you lies, when you call to cancel they give you the run around. They did absolutely nothing for me. DO NOT USE BeRanked !...Every time you call you get a new person... who tells you, you're on the first page, i saw no results with them and when I called to cancel they removed all the listing they posted for me...its like i didn't pay for anything! someone should sue them, they need to be banned. Again DO NOT USE BeRANKED, they are highly unethical

What a rip off!
These people have provided no value to my at all and I have received no follow up service from any customer rep after a number of emails sent to them. Absolutely nothing for the fees they are charging
Don't fall for their promises of better placement on Google searches. If anything the placement of my business has worsened since they had me sign up to their program. Pissed off in Canada!

These guys are a TOTAL SCAM. I also contracted for a 3 month guarantee and all I received were emails with spam calls that beranked labeled as leads. They kept on billing me after 3 months and would not refund our money. We lost $1, 400 with them. Stay away from them

Use caution!
You should also know that these guys are also
Ad IQ. When I tried to cancel, I was given a line of bs f from Tammy that she'd been with AdIQ for 10 years & they are not, nor were they ever BeRanked (Funny, they've only been in business for 3 years!
Plus, I put the puzzle together myself when noticed the same fake testimonials on BOTH websites (they must think I'm stupid!) + posting a picture of a contract that lists both companies as 1 and the same! : )
AVOID! They are liars & I cannot work with someone who lies to me! Why lie? Because you are hiding something!
Plus, + think about this.. why would they delete their Yelp and Google pages...? To hide all the negative reviews so you don't find out the truth..
