Is this a legitimate offer?
I just got an offer from the employer where I've worked for about a year. I started as an Intern, but quickly grew into handling all of the SEO efforts of the company. I finally got an offer to be the Marketing Coordinator of SEM (basically the director/manager of SEM as I would report directly to the VP of Marketing). I was pretty disappointed when I actually got the offer however as it was only for $31,000/year with a possible $3,500 bonus for hitting some goals. I wanted to know if it was just me or if this was pretty underpaid? I was expecting something in the range of 40-50K, was I way off base? It is a fairly small company but I've gotten some pretty good results (2 keywords rank #1, 1 ranked #2 and 4 that have moved into top 30 after being 50 or below 4 months ago. Should I try for another offer or just look else where? Although I just graduated I've done PPC and SEO for about 2 and half years just as an FYI.
