Better to work the seo game the right way around from the beginning and you will have longterm success, instead of just short-term successes.

]]> Comment on SEO sensationalism in the Daily Telegraph by Graham http://www.blackmaxmedia.com.au/blog/2007/07/09/seo-sensationalism-in-the-daily-telegraph/#comment-36 Graham Tue, 03 Jun 2008 10:16:08 +0000 http://www.blackmaxmedia.com.au/blog/2007/07/09/seo-sensationalism-in-the-daily-telegraph/#comment-36 Hmm, not sure I agree with you on that. Sure, he could spend months trying to compete with SEOs on their own turf by ranking for seo sydney or whatever. Or he could spend 3 minutes calling up a friend at a newspaper, another 30 minutes writing an article for them and score three or four new customers. It doesn't make him incapable of good seo - it makes him a smart business person who knows how to allocate resources effectively. And frankly, finding a computer/seo geek who knows good business practice is a rare gem. Hmm, not sure I agree with you on that.
