Terms of Service

The rules of engagement — written to be read, not to hide behind.

Last updated: 16 July 2026

These terms govern your use of https://rankmeontop.in/ and the services provided by RankMeOnTop ("we", "us", "our"). By using this website or engaging us, you agree to them. Where you sign a separate written agreement with us, that agreement prevails over these terms if the two ever conflict.

1. Using this website

You may browse, read and share this site freely. You may not:

  • attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of it, or to the admin area;
  • probe, scan or test its security without our prior written permission;
  • submit false information, spam or automated bulk enquiries;
  • scrape, republish or resell our content, copy or case studies as your own;
  • use it for anything unlawful, or in a way that could damage or overload it.

2. Enquiries and quotes

Submitting the form starts a conversation — it does not create a contract, and it does not oblige either of us to proceed. Prices discussed before a written scope is agreed are indicative only. Work begins when we have a written scope and your confirmation.

The free growth audit is genuinely free and carries no obligation. It is our professional opinion based on the information available to us at the time.

3. Our services

We provide the digital marketing services described on this site. Each engagement is defined by a written scope covering deliverables, timelines, fees and responsibilities.

3.1 What we commit to

  • Delivering the agreed scope with professional skill and care.
  • Reporting honestly — including when results are disappointing.
  • Telling you promptly if we think a strategy should change.
  • Keeping your confidential information confidential.

3.2 What we ask of you

  • Timely access to accounts, assets and approvals we need to do the work.
  • Accurate information about your business, products and claims.
  • Feedback within agreed timeframes — delays here move delivery dates.
  • Payment of invoices when due.

4. Results and expectations

This section matters, so we will be blunt. Digital marketing outcomes depend on your market, competition, budget, product, pricing, sales process and factors entirely outside anyone's control — including search engine and platform algorithm changes made without notice.

We do not guarantee specific rankings, traffic volumes, lead counts or revenue figures. Any agency that guarantees a #1 ranking is either misleading you or gaming a metric that will not survive the next algorithm update. The results and case studies on this site are real outcomes for real clients; they are illustrative, not a promise of what you will achieve.

What we do commit to is competent execution, honest measurement and telling you the truth about what is working.

5. Fees and payment

  • Fees are as set out in your written scope or proposal.
  • Retainers are invoiced monthly in advance; project work is typically 50% to start and 50% on delivery, unless agreed otherwise.
  • Invoices are payable within 15 days of issue.
  • Advertising spend is separate from our fees and is billed at cost — we do not mark up your media budget.
  • We may pause work on materially overdue accounts after written notice.
  • All fees exclude GST and any applicable taxes, which are added where required.

6. Term and cancellation

Retainers run month to month with 30 days' written notice from either side. There are no lock-in periods and no exit penalties.

The one exception is SEO, where we ask for a six-month minimum. This is not a commercial trap: SEO is a compounding investment and any shorter period cannot fairly demonstrate whether the work is succeeding. We tell you this before you sign, not after.

On termination, you pay for work completed up to the end of the notice period, and we hand over the deliverables you have paid for.

7. Intellectual property

  • Your material — your brand, content and data remain entirely yours. You grant us a licence to use them only to perform the services.
  • Delivered work — on full payment, ownership of the final deliverables created specifically for you transfers to you.
  • Our material — our methods, internal tools, templates, frameworks and know-how remain ours, including where used on your project.
  • Third-party assets — stock imagery, fonts and licensed software remain subject to their own licences, which we will identify.
  • Portfolio use — we may show work we delivered for you in our portfolio and case studies. Tell us in writing if you would rather we didn't, and we won't.

8. Confidentiality

Each of us will keep the other's confidential information confidential, use it only for the engagement, and protect it with reasonable care. This survives the end of the engagement. It does not apply to information that is public, already known, independently developed, or that we are legally compelled to disclose.

9. Third-party platforms

Our work often runs on platforms we do not control — Google, Meta, LinkedIn, YouTube, hosting providers and others. We are not responsible for their outages, policy changes, account suspensions, pricing changes or algorithm updates. We will always work with you to respond to them.

10. Limitation of liability

Nothing in these terms excludes liability for fraud, wilful misconduct, or any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Subject to that, our total liability arising from an engagement is limited to the fees you paid us for that engagement in the three months preceding the claim. Neither of us is liable for indirect or consequential losses, including lost profits, lost revenue, lost data or loss of goodwill.

11. Website content

This site is provided "as is". We work hard to keep it accurate and available, but we do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that the information will always be current. Articles and guidance are general information, not tailored professional advice for your situation.

12. Privacy

Our handling of personal data is set out in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms and will revise the "last updated" date above. Changes apply to use of the site from the date they are posted. For active clients, the terms in force when your scope was agreed continue to apply to that engagement.

14. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India. The courts of Bhubaneswar, Odisha have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute — though we would far rather resolve it with a phone call.
