Can You Name The Best SEO Advice You Ever Received?

Nov 18, 2010 - 7:52 am 11 by

One of the many things I love about the SEO industry is how generous people are with their time. Over the years, I have heard, seen and reported on SEOs giving advice to each other. I am sure this happens in other industries, but I have taken a liking to this one.

That being said, Matt McGee started a thread at Sphinn asking SEOs to share the best SEO advice they ever received. Matt asked:

We all give and get advice: on our blogs, at conferences, on the phone with co-workers and peers, etc. But what's THE BEST piece of SEO advice anyone's ever given you? That's the subject of our "Discussion of the Week" this week.

Now, there has already been some posts with people sharing the best advice they received. But before I do a recap on what people post here, I would love to drive more traffic and discussion to this thread.
