Has the general public got any clue about SEO

The frightening thing about this and other threads in here is that people with such limited and flawed knowledge can be so sure of themselves.

Sometimes knowing what you don't know is more important than what you do know.

Do they have degrees in "event planning"?

Steve

Yup, but the they start at level 2 eg:

EDI Level 2 Certificate in Event Planning - its a massive sector.

The degree is: Foundation Degree in Event Management

I think you better take a look at this:

Well of course being the US they would need more planners than normal people.

But not in this case and it proves that some web dude cannot just build a content site without the expert knowledge. The best portal sites were built not by web design, but by rich industry content from the knowledge of the Founders. Web design is important - sure, but its the content and the idea that brings in the visitors.

Its position,description and product desirablilty that makes the till ring.

I don't even know what level 2 is.

Back in my day, we just had degrees... and only in real subjects.

Strangely enough, we still managed to have meetings... so I'm not so sure that it's necessary to have someone study for 3 years in order to arrange one.

Forget 3 years. A level 2 Cert is achievable in a couple of months of evening classes, one evening a week. A Diploma will take about 6-8 months, 1 evening a week.

If you are a bit thick, you can elect to do either over 2 years, but I dont know anyone who ever has.

We certainly aren't talking Degree level here.

Even the foundation Degree, is just that, a foundation.

So a service or idea cannot be desirable - you're funny Earl. I wonder if this is desirable:

http://www.smoothhound.co.uk/ but it can't be - its just a directory Earl

maybe this is a bad idea too: http://www.business.com/ its just a directory......

or this - http://www.tsnn.co.uk/ yep, all these companies got it wrong.

Come on, these are mega resources that provide great service to the public.. And they all make the till ring I'm sure of it.

But for once, i'd like to see websites designed to make a difference, without a price tag being the focus of success.

So you don't think they are selling a product.?

I think you will find that most things have a price tag.

Go to college and learn Earl, it will save you wasting time asking stupid questions. Look -

Service (economics), the non-material equivalent of a good in economics and marketing.

Back in my days we had staff/team meetings to arrange meetings, which achieved nothing so I can see the need for someone to be qualified otherwise how would we know who was in charge?

It certainly was not my line managers who did not hold the certs to pick their own noses.

Those that can pick
Those that can't pick pick other peoples
Those that can't pick other peoples teach other people to do it for them - give em a badge they must be desperate

It doesn't seem to work in all cases.

We certainly aren't talking Degree level here.

That is very evident.

For those who may have a slight problem with the English language:-

Products can be classified as tangible or intangible. A tangible product is any physical product that can be touched like a computer, automobile, etc. An intangible product is a non-physical product like an insurance policy.

Products can be classified as tangible or intangible.

Kind of correct, but not definitive enough to describe the true essence - a better one is:

Services is effort that is perishable, which eventually lose its value, and has to be renewed, repeated to sustain.

Most products aren't considered perishable - in that their physical, more robust, they aren't the same as physical effort bcos effort derives from humans beings, which is the difference between what a product is and a service.

Now repeat it back to me slowly

So a service that produces weblinks, cannot be physically touched, and is not the same as a product.

Here endeth the lesson...

I suggest you lay down in a darkened room for an hour.

Preferably inside your spaceship.
