i thought it worth adding that i think SEO is incredible important and offer a high level of it in my clients work. the issue for me is that there's a myth behind so much of it and it's treated like some after-market specialty. if you do web then you should do seo. sites should be built with this in mind full-stop. the level of priority should be on a sliding scale with budget, timeframes and a balance of what the client wants to communicate versus the importance of search visibility.
the problems is fucking idiots who actually read jacob neilson and buy into his horseshit. if you're selling a product on or offline then visually it needs to be top-notch. web work should not be at a cost of the structure and therefore SEO viability but a complete package. people need to find it but when they do it should also 'sell' itself. if it's the greatest SEO but looks like a bulletin board from 1996 you're going to get a billion hits and a billion immediate bounces. better you get the half a billion hits and the half a billion sales.
my 2 cents, i'm probably wrong.
