Rectify Issue Maurice Blackburn Lawyers – Maurice Blackburn Lawyers ACTIONED FAST after I posted my Review via this column on 17 May, 2023. They value their Potential customer's concerns and I have to give a them a "Thumb Up"! I am now successfully registered for the Medibank Data Breach Class Action. Thank you! Show 2 replies
Treating to take you on court is not working for me – And the "saga" with WME is not finish yet. They keep charging me for SEO even if they did not done anything to improve the SEO on my page and now they keep sending unpaid bills to pay even if I have cancelled the service. A week ago I received a final invoice with the treat to bring me to court if I don't pay in 7 days. I actually paid it but… Read more
today someone call my personal mob. phone demanding for money. How pathetic! WARNING: stay well away from this company, if you are looking for a SEO company look elsewhere ...
Not sure what's happened – I "was" a customer of WME's for nearly 4 years, we had amazing results and great relationships with our account manager. Late last year something happened and everything that was great turned horrible rather quickly. Our account manager started to avoid our calls and emails regarding the campaign performance, we were introduced to three different… Read more
co-manager's whom supported the campaign and we stopped receiving our reports. I have since read that the group WME was a part of had been sold to anther organization whom don't appear to have any history in marketing.
What I have found out in the last week has shocked me and I am seeking legal advice. I have engaged another agency to help me and what they have uncovered is horrifying, from December 2020 until January 2021 not a single piece of work has been done on my account from a technical perspective. Our key words have tanked (apparently WME have a private network where they build internal links to help boost results for SEO). What hurts is I still paid my invoice each month even though they dropped the ball and now I find out that they didn't do any work.
A quick search on LinkedIn shows that in the last 4 months a significant amount of their staff have left the business and have not been replaced, when you read the media reports about the parent company results you can see that revenue is down, as is cost, to me it looks like the business is on life support and at any moment could crash leaving hundreds more like me with no choice but to find an alternative.
My advice is buyer beware, this is no longer the company it once was and I don't believe it will be around for much longer.

Absolutely the worst! Stay Away! – Where do I start!? Made big promises they cant deliver on Rately answer phone calls emails (apart from during sales process and when I told them Id cancelled my payments) Did very very little and the quality of it was poor. Altered their website when I mentioned their guarantee of putting up google ads within 24 hours. I have photos of the… Read more
change within less than 3 hours (See attached) After 12 days apparently my ads went live without my consent or knowledge. They were terrible and spelt business name incorrect. Please do yourself a favour and dont use these people!!!!!!!!!
Update 25 days later Still no reply or contact from anyone. Was easily the worst customer experience I've had, now it is actually beyond belief. This is a good forum to keep people updated as to what actually happens with this company. Unlike Google reviews the negative reviews cant be pushed back in relevancy or deleted.
Hi Steven, That sounds like a terrible experience. I… Read more

You can do better – I had been with these guys for close to 2 years and i realised that i needed a new mobile friendly website which they were able to offer through Nothing but Web. It was supposed to be a simple copy and paste over from my old website, it took these guys more than 6 months and milked me for another 6 months of SEO payments on top. The Website was… Read more
even slower than the older one and they didn't care. They go through so many staff and are unable to do what they promise. Dont use them!

If you're thinking about outsourcing your SEO and Adwords campaigns – We've worked with WME now for 4 years and have been impressed with their ideas and more importantly the results. After muddling our way through handling our own Adwords account, we soon discovered Google doesn't mind how much you spend learning the ropes, with Google constantly changing their algorithms you can't win! We soon learnt that further… Read more · 1
savings could be made if both SEO and Adwords campaigns were carried out in synergy to improve quality scores. With anything up to 20qty quality quote requests and contact forms arriving in our inbox every day WME have made our online profile work for us, not vice versa.
My business went crazy from their SEO plan – I hired WME for my SEO around 15 months ago and it was one of the best decisions i have made for my business. I had barely any leads from google (relied on Social Media) and i wasn't ranked for any keywords at all. Now i am ranked on page 1 for for almost every keyword, i am even ranked in the number one spot for some of most searched words… Read more · 1

From the AE (Jack) making sure of my business' expectations to Luka & Natalia creating a great brand image for me online.

Great Service...Good Results – First vendor I have ever engaged that was honest enough to tell me upfront that results would be a struggle given I wanted to compete with the big boys on a very limited budget. My choice to go ahead knowing the risks, guess what they were right SEO was not for me. Still use WME and Samantha my AM has got me into Social which is proving to be the… Read more · 1
correct avenue to engage potential buyers with.....which was also her first recommendation. Reading some of the reviews on here I can’t help but wonder how many more business owners are laying the blame elsewhere when they should be looking at themselves.
BIGGEST SCAMMERS ON THE MARKET – About 3 or 4 years ago.. i signed up with these guys as I had started a brand new business and built my own website and did as much SEO as I could on my own.. but still wasnt ranking well. I engaged WME to undertake SEO work for us. After to and fro we signed a 12 month contract for quite a substantial amount of money. We were promised the world… Read more
and initially we really optimistic this will help pull our rankings from page 25 of google rankings to some where near the front.... i had asked what WME intended to do for the first 3 months... was promised they would do key word research, and then on site optimisation of my website etc etc etc.....3 months in.... nothing had changed on my website... since i built my own website i knew it inside out... i could not see ANY evidence of ANY optimisation work... suspecting that WME were not even logging into my website to do any work, i turned on audit log to track logins etc.. WME hadnt bothered to log into my account using the user name password i created. Clearly they were NOT doing anything. I challenged WME about this. They denied it and said they were doing onsite Optimisation etc etc and had new content written and drafts ready to go to send to me to approve... never happened... during that time my account manager was changed a number of times.... my fustration grew and i tried to get WME to substantiate and prove they were actually doing work as promised. They could not prove it. I finally disabled their account to see if they would notice. They didnt. When asked about progress they kept feeding me the same line.... yes they are working on it. progress is good etc.. meanwhile my ranking had not moved one single bit...6 months in i had enough told WME i want out and im breaking the contract.
they refused. Said if was to break the contract i would have to pay it out. I refused. They threatened me and said i need to honour the contract etc. I eventually took them to NCAT and won.
I was able to break contract. These guys are straight out liars and scammers. Dont go there
