This is an ambitious claim that you will hear a lot from people offering SEO services.

Let's be honest about SEO
Claims by SEO agencies to get you to #1 in Google for organic searches are often be exaggerated. These attention grabbing claims are made before getting to know your business and the level of competition you face, and should therefore be taken with a pinch of salt until some analysis has been made.
SEO is an ongoing process. It is competitive and requires effort, analysis, frequent monitoring of progress, and the tweaking of pages and content in ways which are intended to produce measurable improvements.
Ideally your website should be designed with SEO as a key objective right from the start, but many people make the mistake of treating it as an add-on at the end.
