ARTICLE 5 – PAYMENT and GUARANTEE TERMS

5.1 Set-up and One-time Fees. All applicable fees herein contemplated are those found in the Order Confirmation Form. Client agrees to pay USWB the set-up fee.

a.) assess and collect charges for the delay in an amount constituting five percent (5%) per month of which amount shall not exceed the ceiling provided by law, when available

5.4 Refunds and guarantees. All set-up fees are non-refundable. All payments for monthly installments will be returned if we do not meet our guarantee with the contract period.

5.4.1 Guarantee voidance
The usual time for the search engine to index your website from the time of submission is 12-16 weeks.

In the event that the minimum guarantee has not been met or none of the optimized pages have been indexed within this time period, USWB will continue to optimize client’s website for twice the number of keywords free of charge for the USWB 5 months.

Search engine’s indexing time is completely out of USWB’s control. Search engines algorithms are constantly changing. However, with ethical optimization methods, USWB is positive that your website will achieve relevant search engine rankings in the major search engines aforementioned.

5.4.1.1 USWB guarantees top 20 positioning among the four (4) major Search Engines aforementioned within 12-16 weeks. Search engines included are Google, Yahoo, AOL Search, MSN Search.
The minimum number of listings guaranteed is the same as package availed. For applicable search engine optimization packages, this guarantee is valid only for keyword phrases approved by the client and analyzed by SEO specialists.

5.4.1.2 USWB does not guarantee improvement in client’s sales or relevant website traffic. Such will still depend on the demand for client’s product or service, design and layout of the site, and many other factors beyond the control of USWB. Guarantee provided in this Agreement is based on the SEO provider’s efforts to deliver top search engine rankings and on the cooperation of the client.

5.4.1.3 Optimization services are provided on a best-efforts basis due to the dynamic and unpredictable nature of the World Wide Web. In no event, shall USWB be held liable for any consequential, indirect, incidental, punitive, or special damages including, without limitation, damages for loss of business profits, business interruption, or loss of business information arising out of this Agreement or out of the actions of third parties in connection with this Agreement, even if client has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

5.4.1.4 Any website downtime of one day or more voids the guarantee because search engines will remove client’s listing if site cannot be visited.

5.4.1.5 Duplicating the optimized pages after they have been uploaded will void the guarantee. Search engines ban and penalize websites for such practice.

5.4.1.6 Transferring of the optimized pages to another domain will void the guaranteed because optimization work was made for the original domain.

5.4.1.7 Client’s selection of keyword phrases that are too competitive may void the guarantee.

5.4.1.8 Redirecting the optimized domain to another one will void the guarantee because search engines regard using 301- redirect as spam.

Should the client accidentally remove the link to sitemap, the sitemap, and optimized pages, USWB will add the link to sitemap, and/or re-upload the sitemap and optimized pages, provided FTP is still accessible. If given FTP is no longer accessible, USWB will inform the client via e-mail of such incident. Failure on the part of client to add the said link or re-upload the optimized pages will void the guarantee.
