SmartSites Reviews

Please do not join this company as an SEO content writer. If you're already working for them, take my review as a warning and leave before you regret it. There are much more reliable places to write for out there. They were paying on time for my first few months, but it went downhill from there. They started delaying their payments, a few days at the start, then weeks, then months. Finally, they simply stopped paying me. Part of my pay has been owed for more than a year (and counting) and I've received nothing but broken promises, excuses, and snark when I ask about payment. I'd love to say that I don't get paid unless I chase them for it, but if only that were true. When I chase them for it, not only do they get rude and defensive, I still don't get paid.

The pay and commission scale is embarrassing to even for a jr. employee. AM's have no clue what they are selling half the time, let alone who they are selling to. The majority of the clients are rude, entitled morons that make you jump through hoops which in turn = long hours. This would be somewhat bearable if given a decent living wage that corresponds with what other agencies are doing - both big and small. Unfortunately, this is not the case as they are charging bargain basement prices for intricate work with way too many people involved in the project.
