Should you raise your prices on SEOClerks services?

A very funny thing happened, when I raised my prices on my SEOClerks services. I started getting more work and for the same gigs that had previously sold for half; sometimes more than I could handle so that I was busy ALL day with forum and blog posting gigs.

The buyers who are now purchasing my packages at the increased price are never picky and always more appreciative of my work, leaving positive feedback and nice reviews.

For anyone thinking of increasing their prices, I'd say go for it. Take time to build a reputation of high quality work. That doesn't mean you should do a bunch of $1.00 jobs just to get positive feedback as usually the type of buyer you will attract doing that will be super picky and won't bother leaving good feedback anyway. Just charge a little more and do the very best job you can do every time you complete a gig.

Don't under charge; just over deliver.

Don't think you have to charge $1.00 for something that is worth $5.00 or $10 for a $20 service. Over time, your buyers will come to expect the highest quality service from you and will return to order more. Then you won't have to depend on random buyers to purchase your packages. When that happens, you can gradually increase your prices on packages and you will still get gigs.

A lot of people believe you get what you pay for. Not everyone is looking for super cheap but horrible work. Most are actually looking for genuine and real work they can trust. And there willing to pay a little extra to gt it.

You have to know your own worth. If you think your services are worthless and worth nothing, and sell them for $1.00 then others will think they are worthless too and try to get double and triple the work out of you for that dollar. Believe in your ability and always provide the best service you can no matter what. Deliver on time and ask your customer to reorder. This will almost guarantee repeat business.

If you have a high quality service and can deliver on time, the buyer should not have a problem paying the price you ask.

Though it will help if you have many good reviews and testimonials from your customers.

This is wonderful news. I wondered if I should raise my prices as well on some of my stuff. I hate to raise it too much as I do want the business.

Everyone thinks that offering the lowest price will get you more customers but it really won't. Even in a really crowded market, the money will always go to the one who offers the highest quality service. After all, no one wants to pay even one dollar for a lousy quality service.

i think the sales is depend upon the user levels and previous feedback and i am sure its possible in your case only but not in all other seller case.

When I created my first service, I priced it $10. After I made my first sale, I increased the price by double. I managed to make some sales with the increased price. Sometime back I increased the price of service by $5. I don't know whether setting higher price will bring more sales or not. However, I believe our services should always be priced less than our competitor's price, especially if you are new.

Thanks for the very much well instruction. I have huge service but I do not get huge sales. I want to get huge and huge sale. Because my services are not on quality based probably. For that reason I am thinking to make some new attractive and quality post on to my profile.

Thanks
