“Overflow cafe has done absolute wonders for our business since November 2011.
We clearly saw the progress made, including dramatic improvements in search engine rankings for 134 keywords and 20x increases in our traffic. Our conversion rate increased from 2.5% to 14% after they rebuilt our website.
Like other reviews I've seen, I agree with most that say their reports can vary from very basic to comprehensive depending on your website AND depending on what YOU ask for. There's a universal report on your dashboard automatically, and several more advanced and detailed ones by email. They can sometimes be confusing. You can also request incredibly detailed reports if you're a scholar lol. I just prefer the basic reports these days.”
“Jeff and Overflow have provided me with excellent service for more than 8 years. They have gone above and beyond to help my business climb in Google rankings and traffic, and they have worked on two projects with me.
As a result, I rank for 175 keywords and I can barely handle the volume in business coming in, which says it all.
Each month, we receive several reports, some more useful than others. There's a basic generic report with 15 metrics that I find the most useful. A Google Search Console report showing how many impressions and clicks we received. An overly detailed Google Analytics report. The Google My Business report which shows how many people found me on maps, and how they interacted with my site, such as searching directions, calling, etc. The final SEMrush report shows my keyword rankings, domain authority, backlinks, and competitor data. I can also request other detailed reports but I don't because it's way too much information.
I highly recommend them.”
“I can now believe what others are saying about those 4 and 5 star reviews because I was offered the same one month free by Jeff at Overflow Cafe if I was willing to remove a bad review I posted on Yelp. We have used this service for over 18 month hoping to see any difference in our keyword ranking. We got nothing. Like everyone else, we were totally fooled by those monthly reports we receive that has data with no proof behind them. When I saw the many bad reviews on Yelp, we started to pay attention to those reports. Like everyone else says, those reports are the same every month and they send to all customer just by changing the web site. They are all fake reports. If the data was real, you would expect to click on any number to see the details behind it. No way, no such thing. Examples of fake data, that I am sure other have seen are the number of back links they created, the number of toxic links they removed, the progress in ranking keywords, the comparison with your competition, etc. I repeatedly requested from them to send me data, never received any. The most I get is things we increased your site authority by 80% and increased your site visibility by 80%. Any proof? no, any idea where they come up with these numbers? no. Bottom line, cut your losses and stop using their service and do not be fooled by those reports they send you. it is all fake. I need to mention that I was threatened by Jeff at Overflow Cafe that If I write any bad reviews, he would do the same to us.”
“Overflow Cafe has been very useful to me for years. I went from the bottom to the top for almost everything I wanted. My traffic and leads are up eleven fold.
Each month around the same day, I get an easy to understand generic report, along with a far more complex comprehensive report. However I rarely read the complex ones anymore. It's way too much data for me and that's my only downside. I am happy as long as I'm moving up and I don't have time for all the charts and graphs.”
“Great results and quality customer service.
The people at Overflow and my team worked together to produce one of the best performing digital campaigns I've participated in. They fine tuned my website, they finished SEO, then took a few months to do conversion rate optimization.
Hopefully by the time the year ends, we'll move on to a display campaign or pay per click.
I was very clear from their initial road-map that they knew what they were doing and I highly recommend them. My ROI is about 27x so far. Thanks!”
“Overflow Cafe has delivered exactly what they promise with a reasonable price. I have been using Overflow for 4 years now, and I've seen great results over the years. Our company has been gradually ranking higher for keywords in Google, and our traffic is stronger than ever with good conversions.
Results are excellent however, I'm not rating them 5 starts because lots of their emails end up in my spam folder and its super annoying.
I don't know why they can't get into my inbox.
Aside from that, this company delivers a great service that you would expect to pay way more for.”
“When we signed up with Cafe Overflow, we were in the top 3 website listings on page 1 of the Google search. Since competition has been increasing, I signed up with Cafe Overflow in hopes of maintaining our position. But after a year we've fallen over onto page 2. As another reviewer commented, they're rude and condescending. Today I was told, "as I've tried to explain to you before without luck... many industries and products are dying out." What does this have to do with keeping our site on Google's 1st page, which is what your advertising says you do? If our industry is dying out, why are we getting so many Google ad clicks and it's costing us in the hundreds every month? Why is has our sales been steadily increasing over the past 20 years? I believe our money would have been better invested hiring a company to maximize our Google ads.”
“They do not really do anything but send you general emails and reports.
They promise back links but when I asked for a list they write back with a list of all my existing ones.”
“I m very pleased with Overflow Cafe! I have only signed up two months ago, and already my website has jumped 7 pages! I really look forward to my website being on page 1. If you have a website, I highly recommend you give Overflow Cafe a chance!”
