Let's face it, trying to pin down a firm answer to those common new client SEO results questions is like trying to catch a greased pig. It's different for each site, each budget, and each client of course. <BR/><BR/>It's amazing how many times you tell people what must be done but they prefer to believe their web designer's version. And he's so knowledgeable that the site is loaded with JavaScript and doesn't validate at the W3C, it's got 150 code errors on the index page. Oh well.<BR/><BR/>At least it's good to see that Google finally got round to telling people to leave off with the JS; but I don't know what good that will do as regards many web developers, a lot of them seem to have been living in a cave for the last 5 years. Of course, it means we get the work to fix it; I suppose you could take the viewpoint that if the devs actually knew what they were doing, clients wouldn't need us half as much...<BR/><BR/>Cheers for a good article, it will be useful to point new clients toward. Always helps if we're not the only one singing the song.<BR/><BR/>Chris<BR/><A HREF="http://www.a3webtech.com/index.php/ethical-seo.html" REL="nofollow">Ethical SEO Agency</A>rolygatehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09039689312413027865noreply@blogger.com
