SEO Trust GoogleLast week I ran a poll asking SEOs if they trust Google.

We have over 500 responses in and I wanted to break it down for you.

Most SEOs do not trust Google, many sometimes trust them but most never fully trust them.

  • 14% Trust Google
  • 46% Sometimes Trust Google
  • 35% Never Trust Google
  • 5% Don't Know

I don't think these results would shock anyone.

Forum discussion continued at WebmasterWorld.

Disclaimer: Please see my poll disclaimer post before coming to any conclusions on these results.

This post was pre-written and scheduled to be posted today.
