I would probably still be doing SEO if it was still that easy and Alta was still on top. 
But alas SEO times have changed.
Couldn't pay me enough to do it for a client now! |
Hey do you rememner Northernlights Search Engine? That one was used by all the libraries and a good number of us webmasters until little baby Google came along.
Ranking was easy and searchs were relevant ... or at least they seemed to be?!!
I really think the webmasters community rallied behind the Google engine and popularized it. I wonder today, if we knew then what we know now ... would we still "dance" with Google?
Yeah, SEO is much harder today ... but look at the bright side, the pay for a real whitehat SEOer is pretty good. Although the amount of time evangelizing on white and black hats for clients is a pain, eh?!
