Partnering up with a web design company seems like a good idea. But you could also try investing in ads, because if ads convert then clients will surely pay themselves back.

Personally I would be a bit hesitant to hire a SEO that can't even rank himself. But I know some companies I worked hired people for SEO who were in the same predicament. I noticed they even had broken menu's on their website. I think they approached companies by themselves. I found it hard to see what they actually did. They just posted on Facebook and improved the website. Put the faces of the employees on the website and all that bullshit.

I have a website that I need to rank. And I know what a pain it is to achieve results in a competitive niche. It's pretty hard to stay white hat if you want to produce actual results.

But there are hundreds of SEO companies how do you expect them all to be on the first page of Google? They are there mostly because they were among first ones to have that business.

Because the guys you are doing SEO for also have loads of competitors.
