I am a professional search engine positioning type guy who is having major problems with my web host that is costing me -potentially- thousands. While I have no problems with changing hosts and paying for a better one, I would like to offer any web host capable of hosting a .co.uk domain (free transfer, please) the following deal:

I will optimize your site for high search engine rankings in exchange for two good hosting packages. I don't need much in terms of space, but 5-6 GB/month plus the usual assortment of CGI scripts is essential. I need to be able to host two domains, as US search engines favour .com over .co.uk and I would like to tailor a second set of services to the US market. I have the .com domain name already, so I would require free transfer here also.

Further to this. I would suggest some kind of mutual referral program. I also work as a web designer and could place clients with you in return for a similar recommendation from you about my services.

I never give out details of clients- but for my own site, the following is a verifiable selection of rankings (21/05/01):

POSITION: 01 TERM: search engine ranking
SEARCH ENGINE: www.google.co.uk

POSITION: 02 TERM: search engine positioning
SEARCH ENGINE: www.google.co.uk

POSITION: 01 TERM: search engine positioning
SEARCH ENGINE: www.netfind.co.uk (AOL UK)

POSITION: 02 TERM: uk search engine positioning
SEARCH ENGINE: www.altavista.com

POSITION: 02 TERM: uk search engine positioning
SEARCH ENGINE: www.google.com

POSITION: 07 TERM: uk search engine positioning
SEARCH ENGINE: www.lycos.com

POSITION: 10 TERM: search engine positioning
SEARCH ENGINE: www.altavista.co.uk

And many more in the top 30 or so...

Any web host interested can email me at mark@1design4life.co.uk or view the site www.1design4life.co.uk (if it's not down or loading at the speed of a three legged sloth).

Thanks for your time,

Mark

Corey,

Did you get my email ?

To all the web hosts:

this is a serious offer. I do what I say I can do. I must admit to being a little surprised that I've only had 3-4 emails. Oh well, that's life, I guess

Dogma,

As your site is in for a revamp, now might be a good time to email me in any case.

Ckizer,

I don't blame you for being sceptical. But all the rankings posted at the top are verifiable. Just go to the relevant search engines and do the search. For the UK versions. remember to check the box for uk sites.

I must admit I would be sceptical too.

Thanks to everyone who emailed me about this. I have now chosen my new partners in this project. Thanks also for the lack of the flaming I expected to get when posting this.

Cheers
