Since we do quite a lot of HTML development from time to time, we come across quite a few companies that offer “Search Engine Optimizations”. I can’t say I haven’t met one that I don’t think is nothing more than a scammer, its simply a profession that should not exist, instead, hire good developers. We have come across SEO companies that got clients banned from several search engines during the whole “doorpages” area of optimization, and “optimizers” that didn’t know how to view the HTML of the website (hello view source?).

I mean, what is the point of actually coming in after the project to review the HTML/Layout/Content for Search Engine Optimization? What if we had our HTML totally wrong, are we going to redo the whole website? No, any optimization should be done during development, and any good HTML/CSS coder knows how to do a decent optimization.

I wish clients would spend their money on hiring a good copy to help them with some text instead, that is probably better for the indexing and usability of the website.

Except for coding good HTML and having good value content, there isn’t much you can do, except for links! Getting others to link to your website is very important in order to get anywhere in today’s searches.

So, as a conclusion… if you use TinyMCE or any of our stuff, we would appreciate any links you can give us
