In the early days of the Internet, many businesses offered performance-based SEO for Google and Yahoo, charging only based on results, like ranking in the top 10 or top 3. However, as Google and Yahoo evolved and their ranking criteria changed frequently, it became increasingly difficult to achieve those results, making performance-based models unsustainable.<\/p>\n

Increased competition or a downturn in the economy can also impact sales, and these are things we can\u2019t control.
