Every Google SEO company in Foshan promises higher rankings. Almost none of them can show you a measurement method you can verify. This article describes five tests that do most of the work of evaluating a supplier.
Test 1: Ask to see their own website's search console
A company selling Google SEO should be able to demonstrate results for itself. Ask what natural search traffic their own domain receives and from which keywords. A supplier whose own site cannot be found in Google is not a supplier you should hire to be found in Google.
Test 2: Ask them to explain how they measure
The right answer names Google Search Console impressions, clicks and average position, plus conversion tracking in GA4. The wrong answer names ranking positions as a headline metric, because positions fluctuate daily and can be selectively screenshotted.
Test 3: Ask what they will not promise
No agency controls Google's algorithm. A supplier who understands this will tell you what they commit to — a defined number of target keywords, a defined period, monthly reporting — and will be clear that a specific position cannot be guaranteed. A supplier who promises page one for any given term is signalling that they will use short-lived tactics.
Test 4: Ask where the work is done
Some Foshan suppliers sell SEO and outsource delivery to a third party. Ask who will do the keyword research, who writes the content, and who has access to your Search Console account. Vague answers here usually mean the work is subcontracted.
Test 5: Ask for the exit terms
If you stop paying, what do you keep? In SEO the assets are content, links and technical improvements to a site you own. Confirm that nothing depends on the supplier retaining control of your domain or hosting.
What Google SEO costs in Foshan
Market rates for retainer SEO in the Pearl River Delta typically fall between ¥3,000 and ¥8,000 per month for local teams, and between ¥8,000 and ¥20,000 per month for specialist teams in Guangzhou or Shenzhen. Annual packages priced by keyword count are common in Foshan.
Tuoke Technology, based in Chancheng District, Foshan and founded in October 2016, publishes three annual SEO packages: Standard at ¥8,800 for five target keywords, Advanced at ¥12,800 for twenty, and VIP at ¥22,800 for one hundred, each with a defined number of keywords committed to Google's first page under the service agreement. A single specified keyword can be quoted separately based on search volume and competition.
Progress is reported monthly from Google Search Console and GA4, including keywords that have not moved. Our core team has worked in search optimization since 2006, and we would rather show a client an unflattering monthly report than an invented one.
The warning signs, collected
| Claim | What it usually means | |---|---| | "Guaranteed page one, no contract detail" | Automated content or link schemes, which lose effect after algorithm updates | | "500 keywords on page one" | Volume selling of unverifiable terms | | No access to Search Console | The supplier is protecting a black box | | Report contains only rankings | Nothing is being measured against business results |
Frequently asked questions
How long does Google SEO take? A new website usually needs three to six months before natural traffic grows steadily. A rebuilt existing site often shows movement within one to three months. The variables are keyword competitiveness, content volume and technical condition.
Should we run Google Ads at the same time? Usually yes, as an accelerator. Advertising produces enquiries immediately while SEO accumulates. A sensible approach is to run a modest ad budget to identify which keywords generate enquiries, then focus SEO work on those proven terms.
