you also have to surrender "design" of the pages to the firm that is doing it if you want them to guarantee it.

they would modify your design as you can't remember it then, i guess

one of the biggest factors in rankings is content and the markup of the page. if they have no control of that, they couldn't guarantee it.

yeah that makes sense.

it depends on the keyword. Some keywords (like "shopping" for instance) is way harder to get in top 3. But with some others I can help. Also it doesn't happen over night, takes some time and not guaranteed 100%

camb - The firm that we used at my last job wanted control of the content of the page that was going to be guaranteed. Basically they wanted to be able to insert code and text and words and whatever else to increase the ranking.
However, that was over a year ago and maybe things have changed since then.
But, the site still is ranked #5 on google, so it worked.

it's a flash site i'm talking about though, does that matter a ton in making it rank better since you can't insert keywords on all pages?
