Hi Adam:

Well put, “emphasis on holistic”…

The deer in the headlights look does crack me up and most of the time, that is what you get from most clients when you start to break down relevance score and the value of content, timing and engagement.

Some people are just better off with PPC I suppose. I agree that SEO was never all about links (at least after 1997). But I did have to use a headline that would (a) get some traction and (b) lead to other useful topics to segue interest.

Thanks for taking the time to read the post and stop by.

Good post and observations about SERPS.

IMHO, I don’t think SEO has ever been “all about links”. The best long-term results are achieved by diversifying your strategy and approaching it holistically.

Getting asked “How do I get number one?” always makes me smile… it’s a naive question like “How do I make a sandwich?”

In SEO there are best practices, like sandwich-making, you can follow to make it more tasty and to make them faster.

The question I return with is “How can you truly BE the number one Website in the industry?” (Usually met with gawks and deer-in-headlight looks, I swear no one has asked them that before!)

SEO in 2008 and beyond, experience and creativity really count!
