Brodie Clark posted an interesting poll on Twitter asking if the SEO community agreed or not. The poll asked do you agree or disagree that "if you're selling SEO as a service, it is important that your own website has good SEO."
The results showed that 75% agreed with this statement, while 25% disagreed. There were 1,450 responses to the thread, 16.6% of which just wanted to see the results - so I took those out to do these calculations.
Here is the poll:

Whilst I voted "agree" - it's not necessarily that a site needs to be perfect from every single angle, but it should not include things like links to a G+ profile, or a link to a suspended twitter account or touting myth-based tactics

I felt a lot of pressure to do it, and personally I refuse to let that dominate how I make $$$.

Billable hours take priority. Simple as that.
