Terms of Service

1. Engagement & Services

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern the provision of digital marketing, search engine optimization (SEO), lead generation, and custom web/application development services by TheRankers to you (“Client”). Specific project scopes, milestone deliverables, and fees are defined in individual Statements of Work (SOW) or digital service proposals agreed upon between the parties.

2. Retainers & Payment Terms

• Retainers: Monthly SEO and growth management services are billed in advance on a recurring monthly cycle. We offer flexible arrangements without punitive lock-in contracts unless explicitly stipulated in an annual SOW.
• Project Milestones: Fixed-scope development and design projects typically follow a 50% deposit / 50% upon deployment schedule unless otherwise agreed in writing.
• Invoices: Invoices are payable within 14 calendar days of issuance via approved bank transfer or secure card processor.

3. Client Obligations

To enable effective campaign execution, Client agrees to provide timely access to relevant platforms (e.g., CMS, Google Search Console, Google Analytics, hosting accounts) and appoint a primary point of contact for feedback and milestone approvals.

4. Intellectual Property & Deliverables

Upon receipt of full payment for completed milestones, all custom website code, creative design assets, and content produced specifically for Client become the sole property of Client. TheRankers retains ownership of pre-existing proprietary tools, starter frameworks, and internal methodologies.

5. Performance Disclaimers

While TheRankers adheres to industry best practices and white-hat SEO guidelines, Client acknowledges that search engine ranking algorithms and third-party platform policies (e.g., Google, Meta, LinkedIn) operate independently and are subject to change outside agency control. We guarantee diligent execution, transparent reporting, and strategic optimization, but do not warrant specific numeric rank guarantees that violate search guidelines.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, neither party will be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages. The aggregate liability of TheRankers arising out of any engagement will not exceed the total fees paid by Client during the three (3) months preceding the claim.
