"2. Your SEO company’s site (or those of their clients) has the same Title
tags on every page"

I had a healthy "discussion" with a SEO company t'other week and asked to see their website - same sort of thing - really poor. I also entered a few SEO keywords into Google whilst on the phone and they were not found in pages 1 to 10.

He gave the stock-in-trade reply - "we don't optimise our site as it would give the secrets away" ... fine ... if you want to stay secret and hidden you won't be driving a new Porsche next year will you?

I dont drive a Porsche it's a Ford.

Exactly - try working for GCHQ instead.

He hung up :confused:
