Come and work for Kier Stoke

Kier Stoke repair logs cost council £780k in one month as delays mount | This is Staffordshire

Re-tiling around a bath in a council owned property took 18 visits at a cost of £1,250. Granted that's only £69 per visit, but the more visits you make surely the more money you make :mad2: bonkers.

No wonder tradespeople get short shrift from the public, when they hear about things like this :yikes:

Makes you wonder!

I hear of SEO guys charging thousands for hours work. But they get away with it all the time as people don't understand what they're doing one bit!!

I can see how that would happen dan.

I think people that are paying that will continue to do so as long as they are seeing good results.

I pay my guy a fixed rate every month and I think I am getting good result for my money. I think he spends two hours max per month.

This get me SEO on site that he written all the code on and also on a website I had designed by someone else with cms.
