SEOs Can't Decide If SEO Writing Should Die Or Not

burn booksIn June we ran a poll asking you if you think SEO writing should die.

Now with well over 300 responses and a lot of fun comments, I wanted to share that SEOs can't make up their minds on the topic.

  • 42% of you said SEO writing should stick around
  • 41% of you said most of the SEO writing out there should die
  • 16% said all the SEO writing should die

The big question is do 57% of you think this site should die? ;-)

Here is the big poll results graphic:
