SEOs 50/50 On Letting Google Watch Them Do SEO

Google Watching You LogoBack in October, Google asked if any SEOs wanted to be watched while they do SEO.

I bet a lot of you signed up, because Google ran another one of these just recently.

But I did run a poll asking the community if they are into the idea. The results were pretty much split down the middle.

I asked, "Would You Let Google Observe You As You Work On Web Sites?"

  • 46% of you said no
  • 43% of you said yes
  • 11% of you were unsure

Here is the pie chart:

This post was pre-written and scheduled to be posted today. FYI, I am offline today so I won't see your comments until likely Sunday or Monday.
