This Agreement is between Hire SEO Professionals (“Provider”) and the Client identified in the accompanying order, proposal or invoice (“Client”).
Provider will perform SEO services as described in the Scope of Work attached to this Agreement. Services may include technical SEO, on-page optimization, content recommendations, link-building consultation, reporting and related work.
Provider makes no guarantee that the Client's website will achieve or maintain any specific search engine ranking, traffic level, or placement. Search engine algorithms, competition, platform changes, and Client-controlled factors affect results and are outside Provider’s control. Provider agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts and recognized SEO practices to improve visibility, but results are not guaranteed.
(Industry standard: SEO contracts should avoid promising specific rankings or traffic.)
Fees are as set out in the proposal/invoice. Unless otherwise stated, payments are due within 7/15/30 days of invoice. Except where expressly stated, fees are non-refundable for services already performed. If Provider agrees to a refund, refund will be capped at the amount actually paid for the specific services in the prior 90 days.
Except for gross negligence or willful misconduct, Provider’s aggregate liability for any claim arising out of this Agreement will be limited to the total fees paid by Client to Provider under this Agreement in the prior 6 months. Under no circumstances will Provider be liable for lost profits, consequential, incidental, or punitive damages.
Provider warrants that services will be performed in a professional manner consistent with generally accepted industry standards. Client acknowledges that Provider will not perform actions that violate search engine guidelines, and Client is responsible for approval and implementation of any content or structural changes that Provider recommends.
Client will indemnify and hold Provider harmless from third-party claims arising from Client-provided content, failure to implement agreed changes, or Client instructions that cause harm or violations.
Each party will maintain confidential information in confidence and use it only to perform obligations under this Agreement.
Either party may terminate for material breach if the other party fails to cure within 30 days of written notice. Fees for services rendered through effective termination date remain payable.
Neither party is liable for delays caused by events beyond reasonable control (e.g., internet outages, algorithm changes, force majeure events).
Parties will attempt to resolve disputes in good faith. If unresolved, disputes will be resolved by binding arbitration under the applicable arbitration rules to be mutually agreed, or in courts with jurisdiction specified in the accompanying order. Note: choose governing law/jurisdiction that suits your business — discuss with counsel.
This Agreement, together with any attached Scope/Proposal, constitutes the full agreement between the parties.
