I got another suspicious email today.

Hey,

I was searching for top businesses around your area and I came across your website: [redacted].com

I’m an SEO Expert, so you can imagine why ended up diving deep into your website’s metrics. I got to say, you look like a perfect candidate, considering the direction that we’re moving towards as a company. I just had to reach out.

But sadly, your website has quite some problems when it comes to SEO. And keep in mind that Google is not at all interested in which business has the most good looking website.

If you want to find out what are your biggest website problems, reply to this email.

After I receive confirmation that you’re interested, I will generate a free website report that will point you towards your biggest website flaws.

Let me know if you’re interested,

Thanks

Jasmine Harris

I thought you might like to see my reply. But first,

Background info: I do own the domain name that Jasmine refers to, but it isn’t linked to a website.*

I came, I wrote, I conquered. That last bit might not be true, but at least I am putting up a good fight.
