Congratulations on such a first-rate critique and site. I have found it to be very helpful and educational - I only wish that there were more blogs online like this one. I never disappear from this blog without learning anything, from time to time I may feel a tiny bit saddened that I may not agree with a blog article or comeback that has been made. But hey! that is existence and if every one decided to agree on the same thing what a boring old world we would exist in. Please maintain your admirable work. Having said all of this, and if I'm kindly allowed to continue with my entries I will come again to post on your blog site soon Cheers, have a great day and thank you.

We are straight arrow white hat SEO, but we have to live with this stuff. There is so much bunk offered as SEO that isn't. We have been recruiting web designers for subcontractor work for our SEO biz. The last two candidates sites offer SEO services, yet they haven't preformed the basics on there own website! Since we can not change the industry as a whole, we strive to be the best we can be, and call it good. I think it's called leading by example.

SEO makes indexing easier and more accurate for the engines, which makes the most relevant content to be presented to users in the search results. Without traffic to a web site there's not chance of anyone buying anything. ie, SEO delivers people to the door of the store, but it doesn't necessarily make them buy.
