I would not make any decisions based solely on a Yahoo! Answers response from the public, especially when making a decision to pay a vendor thousands of dollars to market your business. It’s too easy to manipulate the answers posted on here. I left my 2 cents along with some information on Qualified Impressions below that may help you make a decision.
I suggest you do the following:
- Research online; call up the Top 5 companies that appear on the Google search engine so you know they at least did a good job for their own company website rankings.
- Ask them lots of questions. Ask how they do what they do.
- Review testimonials.
- Get pricing.
- Call references. Ask them to show you other websites they have worked on.
There’s not much more you can do. If you research the business on Google by typing in the NAME of their organization and find no complaints regarding scams or bad service, that;s a good sign. Most of the rip-off SEO companies have burned their clients and have negative reviews all over the internet, which, again, you can find on Google.
Regarding Qualified Impressions specifically, their website appears to be very professional. They list out testimonials here: http://www.qualifiedimpressions.com/testimonials.html
And, I took the liberty of Googling their business name out of curiosity and found a few other links that may help you with your decision.

Hope that helps

Hi, we’re working on an upcoming pirate themed multilayer game and we’ve recently added two adsense banners on the forums. The problem is that all of the ads are usually unrelated. For example, most of them are for stuff like dating, weight loss, or even pet insurance!
I was just wondering how I can optimize the ads by editing the meta tags for phpbb3. I’ve tried changing some tags but I still have no luck!
Thanks!
oh and the site is:

Especially a webmaster/consultant that is fluent in web design, search engine optimization and internet marketing?
Are high quality webmasters usually well versed in all areas or are these different fields of expertise?
I am looking for someone particularly experienced in the mortgage field.
Thanks in advance.
I’d suggest you check the local chamber of commerce. If you go visit a group like that, you’d be surprised of now many people you can find with a varied number of talents across multiple fields. Another suggestion would be to put up a classified ad on something like CraigsList. There are quite a few people on there that have a varied number of skills as well!
