seo certificationEarlier this month we asked you to take two polls in one post, we asked do you want SEO certification & standards.

Yesterday I posted the results of the SEO standards poll, which showed most SEOs want SEO standards. As we covered yesterday, 65% of the SEOs out there said yes, we SEOs need SEO standards.

But when it comes to SEO certification only 55% of SEOs feel we need it for our industry. About 43% said we do not need SEO certification in the SEO industry. The results are pretty different from when we asked about the SEO standards need in the industry.

You would have thought the results would have been similar but no, SEOs do make a distinction between having standards versus an industry standard for certification.

Forum discussion continued at Sphinn.
