From a Search Engine Optimization perspective, using the underscore in your file structure or naming conventions is a bad idea. Everyone uses the underscore to make the file names, etc., more readable. Unfortunately, it has the exact opposite effect on the Search Bots. To them using an underscore is the exact same as using another number or letter. This means the underscore is not something that you should be using as a spacer.

Are Predefined Search Engine Optimization Service Packages All Just SEO Scams?

A great many SEO Providers offer such service packages because they don't actually understand Search Engine Optimization. They use information from Search Engine Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, and personal opinion to create a skewed idea of what SEO is really about. This means those that offer predefined Search Engine Optimization packages should either be avoided or used with extreme caution.
