Seriously though, this is good to know. Where I’ve worked, we’ve had consultants from well-respected huge SEO firms to small businesses that claim they are the masters. Each has a different angle and an opinion on various SEO efforts and their importance in rankings. Lately, I’ve just started tuning them out. There is however, some software out there that compares your site to a bunch of others, and then says how you compare with them to incoming links, keywords, pagerank, etc etc and offers ideas for solutions. I’m going to do some research and probably blog about it, but for now, I’m guessing that sort of method (comparisson with who is getting the best rank) is what I’ll be trusting from now on.

Anyway, thanks for the blog and the good idea. I’ll actually link over here in my article.
