    9. The Company advises that regular, fresh content added to the site will help to improve the stability of rankings within search engines and the Client understands that regular, unique content plays an important part in the success of a website, and failure to add unique content will lessen the impact of SEO services.

    1. PRICES

      1. Unless otherwise expressly stated, all prices shall be in Pounds Sterling. If extra duties are introduced or changed after the conclusion of an Order, the Company shall be entitled to adjust the agreed prices accordingly.

      2. The Client acknowledges that certain Services may involve the licensing of third party Intellectual Property Rights and that the Client may be required to enter into a licence directly with such third party. Unless otherwise expressly stated, all prices shall be exclusive of costs for the acquisition of Intellectual Property Rights for materials to be included in marketing materials, including if relevant (but without limitation) pictures and licences from third-party owners and licensors.

      3. The price stated in the Order shall be an estimate based on a qualified estimate of the number of hours required to provide the Services or whichever Service package has been chosen. This is an estimate only and Services shall be invoiced by the actual number of hours spent under the price set out in the Order or Quotation and if the price is not so stipulated, the Client shall be charged at the hourly rate specified in the Company’s then-current price list or conversation had with them. The Company shall be obliged to update the estimate and budgets on an ongoing basis following, among other things, changes made to an Order. 

      4. Whilst every effort is made to ensure that costing estimates are accurate, the Company reserves the right to amend any estimate, should an error or omission have been made.

      5. If the Client has taken out an Order or Service over a set period and has paid in full, if the Client decides they no longer wish to proceed with Works anytime after 14 days then no refund will be issued to the Client. 


  6. PAYMENT

    1. The Company shall invoice the Client either by package, weekly or monthly, either in advance or following Services delivered. Before the Company carries out any work Clients are usually asked to provide a non-refundable fees deposit. This deposit is like a rent deposit. It is kept securely and will be offset against the Client’s last invoice(s) when the work detailed in an Order has been completed. Also, if the Client does not pay a monthly invoice when it is due the Company will be within their rights to add a £20.00 late payment fee/charge for every month which the invoice is not paid.

    2. The Client shall pay each invoice submitted by the Company within 7 Business Days of the date of the invoice and in cleared funds under clauses below. Payments by Paypal or Bank Transfer are accepted.

    3. The Client shall pay all amounts due under the Contract in full without any deduction or withholding except as required by law and the Client shall not be entitled to assert any credit, set-off, or counterclaim against the Company to justify withholding payment of any such amount in whole or in part. The Company may, without limiting its other rights or remedies, set off any amount owing to it by the Client against any amount payable by the Company to the Client.

    4. In the event of overdue payment, interest shall accrue on the invoice amount at the statutory rate prescribed by the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 or at the rate of 2 per cent to 20 per cent. At the Company’s discretion, a fee of £20.00 shall be charged per monthly reminder for overdue payment submitted to the Client. The Company shall be entitled to submit such reminders monthly once the fees have become overdue. The Company expressly reserves all rights at all times to bring any legal action it considers appropriate to recover any unpaid sums.

    5. Late payment shall be considered as constituting a material breach of the Contract entitling the Company (at its discretion) to cancel the Contract or to affirm the Contract and assert the usual remedies for breach.

    6. If the Services cannot be delivered either in full or in part due to the Client’s failure to assist or delay in assisting in the execution of the Order, the Company shall be entitled to charge to the Client an estimated amount, corresponding to the amount that would have been due had the Services been rendered under the Order. The Company shall be entitled to payment based on the Company’s price list applicable from time to time for any additional work required because of the Client’s failure to assist or delay in assisting.

  7. If the Client subsequently requires the Company to complete the work within a shorter time frame than specified in the Order the Company reserves the right to charge additional monies to prioritise such projects ahead of pre-planned work.

    1.  

  8. DELAYS AND COMPLAINTS

    1. Complaints concerning delays or breaches of the Contract shall be submitted immediately after the time when the Client became or should have become aware of the matter. If the Client fails to bring the defect (unless by its very nature it is impossible to ascertain within such a period) to the attention of the Company within 48 hours the Client shall be deemed to have accepted the Services and shall not be entitled to assert remedies based on delays or breach of Contract. 

    2. The Client hereby acknowledges that certain Services rely upon goods and/or services being provided by third parties (‘Third Party Services). The Client acknowledges that the Third Party Services will be governed by that third parties terms and conditions and that the Company cannot provide any warranties in respect of the Third Party’s Services and will not be liable to the Client for any delays and/or failings in respect of the same. Providers of Third Party Services may provide their warranties to the Client and the Client must satisfy itself whether or not such warranties (where given) are acceptable for the Client’s business purposes or risk management policies. 

    3. The Company’s only responsibility in respect of the Third Party Services is to take reasonable care and skill when selecting the providers of the same. 

  9. There may be delays in works due to a Force Majeure, Holiday, Sickness or Illness of The Company, Maternity Leave, Unforeseen Circumstances or Scheduling Overlaps. The Client accepts that this can happen and the Company will not be held liable for works that are completed before or after one of the above events to preemptively post ahead of time or to catch up on missed works after an event e.g holiday. The works will be carried out in a UK time-zone regardless of the Company's location and at a specified time or specified day which has been agreed in writing. If nothing has been specifically agreed in writing by the Client or states e.g '2 times per week' then the Company is within their rights to post the relevant content for the week, twice within 1 day.
