    And a very happy one-man-band at that. But obviously I work with a number of other suppliers who provide services to me and my clients.

    I've been extremely lucky - I'm working with some serious websites, and some of the leading technologies on the web. Remaining small and nimble has worked extremely well for me :) .

    No offense intended with one-man band - I don't think bigger is necessarily better :D

    I would be pretty removed from the hosting/marketing/seo scene and when I think SEO I think red cardinal so he's doing _something_ very well ;)

    I think RedCardinal is the bees-knees when it comes to SEO too and probably other things too....but Google and the Google Pagerank theory and search results are closed-door secrets, so nobody can be 100% expert. Even the original PR theory that was patented must have had a 100 tweaks by now! all we have is cause-and-effect - that means that with so many variables we can all have a different, conflicting view on Google/SEO and still be right.

    This is a question I always ask (whether it's design, SEO, engineering etc) - if you are so removed from SEO, how are you qualified to pick an SEO expert?

    I ask because I have dealt with so many people who when you first meet them will tell you that they haven't a clue about website design - then when you show them designs that your design team have done, they pick the worst and proceed to make it worse - yet they have already admitted they dont know what they're talking about. Of course we have to let them, they ultimately write the cheque...it's just a curiousity-thing of mine, I have to ask, I hope it doesn't come across as confrontational.

    Not sure what you're trying to say?

    I never claimed to be qualfied? I'm not "picking" anyone?

    I never said red cardinal was good/bad/indifferent as an SEO expert/professional

    so I'm not really sure what you're trying to suggest
