In the old days we built a site and turned it over to the seo guy to "optimize" with meta tags, key-word dense (and therefore poorly written) content, etc. Now everything we do involves seo whether it's avoiding Flash at all costs unless it's to use sifr for h1 tags to avoid images, choosing a cms that produces W3C valid code, spending 4 hours on 301 redirectors for Google, submitting xml site maps to all the major search engines, planning funnels for Google Analytics, etc. SEO has utterly insinuated itself into all aspects of site build-out. Love it or hate it--in this technological arms race--best practices requires SEO be considered at all stages of website design and development. Web developers consequently can no longer afford to be ignorant of current SEO standards in the hopes that unctuous SEO guy will come in and perform his/her magic after the site goes live.

Great point. @Dan Root - Calacanis gets tons of flack (justly most of the time), and you mention Mahalo. After an initial pounding by internet marketers/SEOs/whatevers I've noticed it's getting some traction. People I respect are even saying nice things: http://twitter.com/tamar/statuses/773494060. We'll see what happens as the web's new About/Yahoo Directory evolves :) @Megan - very thoughtful response and a great perspective. Thank you. @aaron - “He is what he hates” is so true. Great point.

Very well thought out. Taking it a half step further, let's look at he forest for the trees for a second. Technology on the web increases so rapidly that our methods and offerings are constantly evolving - creating new cause/effect scenarios and whole new points of interrelatedness. Nothing since print has impacted culture and commerce so greatly. So standardization is a long way off yet, but I don't think it's causing any one real, tangible suffering. (Their egos maybe, but not their pocket book if they're an astute business person.) We flourish and expand by focusing on the specific goals customers want accomplished. Calcanis's comments haven't reached me personally yet, but when clients stop calling because they think SEO is unneeded, I'll probably change my mind. For now, I'm happily and online marketer. What that means? I usually define it in the project scope portion of my bids. Thank you Adam, I am printing this one. Very well thought out.

Very insightful. Aaron has also pointed out a very real and true argument. I also agree with his statement on Jason Calacanis. I mean, seriously... look at Mahalo.. haha. This is a great piece.
