Don’t get me started on web designers, or even web desginers who sell seo services, or web designers who sell seo services and put the clients domain name in every title tag, nnnngggg
Or the web designers who host a copy of their client homepages in a subfolder, leveraging the developer site authority...
And while we’re piling on - the web designers who know enough SEO to be dangerous and start messing around with the carefully researched keyword targeting you have implemented. nnnnngggrrr
Glad to see this post and know that there are others that feel this way as well. How about the web designer that provides hosting and is selling paid links in page footers without the client’s knowledge?
This is my first post here on the mighty Sphinn. Let me start by saying I am not a web designer nor am I a marketer, I don’t even own a domain name! I am just interested in the subject. This post, and its comments, are anti SEO. If you were approached by a client, who was a web designer, you would tell them to link to their home page from the work they have produced. You would probably tell them to use the keywords they want to rank for as the anchor text. Wouldn’t you? GA
Gerard,If you wanted to do anything to get traffic then you have a point. However, I think there are about a thousand other ways you could help your designer do SEO besides screw their client.
Andrew,Thanks for taking the time to respond. I wouldn’t object to a designer doing this. I certainly wouldn’t feel screwed. I understand they have a business to run and a service to market. If someone has created something for me to use, it should still have their name on it.GA
Gerard,I guess we all have different ways of doing things. I for one can’t stand wearing logo shirts but I understand why marketers want to put them on the clothes I wear.
