Our agency turned down a project recently that would've been lucrative due to the guy wanting to pay CC for $20k+ vs. normal payments at that level like wire or ACH. Likewise, we don't take any post-pay business on for the same reason.

You were the one who brought up "pay for performance" which you can't prepay for obviously. If you weren't meaning that as post-paying for SEO services, then there's not an issue with that. Absolutely there should be at least a sense of the outcomes that will come other than "will mak ur ranks highr." and I agree with that. Was just saying that with how many people getting into post-pay agreements and simply not paying at all even if results are delivered, I don't blame SEOs for not doing a post-pay arrangement.

Anybody in any business who promises and collects money, yet cannot deliver is a crook, period and full stop...the only 2 exceptions I know of are doctors treating cancer, there I would cut some slack and whores, but at least once I pay them and they do not perform I have a recourse since they are in the room with me and not "somewhere in Bangala land"

Lets take GA or Alexa.... You improve my standing by 20 % i will pay you 20 % ...now, would not I be totally stupid if the SEO guy did that and I would NOT want to pay him for him to go for another 20 %.... Yes, I would NOT be a crook I would be a stupid crook.

So pay me $ 999 a month for six months, and maybe if Google does not fuck it up, then you may get a bit higher rank. ....WOW what a business proposition.
