    Annoying SEO services emails

    Does anyone else get constant emails offering SEO services from India. I get several every day. Usually from a gmail account, which combined with poor grammar and english get them sent straight to spam.

    Presumably some people buy services this way, but seems a very odd way to select an SEO provider.

    I, too, see several a day, often with a follow-up email on the following day. They often say they have looked through the site, but the next sentence does not really apply at all. I have one site in a very tight niche that is on the first page of the SERPs and even has Google site links in the results, but these folks are sure that they can get the whole world to stop by if I will only avail myself of their services.

    Obviously they are either running a email scraper bot or buying a list from somebody who is.

    I also get offers of site design services on a couple of specialty sites that I have no reason or desire to change. One is a background image site that uses the background image as a page background for the display page.

    Yes, I get the follow up ones too. Often signed by someone with a very English or American sounding name, and yet an Indian SEO Executive!
