Specific SEO Technique
Ethics in the purest sense is an internal compass which points the SEO practitioner to the most honest and above board way to do business. Many major companies both national a global, have ethics officers which define ethical behavior and set the corporate culture. Ethics concerns the interaction with the legal frame work of a company’s home nation as it interacts with client’s cultural prerogatives.
Within SEO/SEM much effort has been expended to link ethics to SEO/SEM techniques. In this case the specific ethical abstraction is the interface between all available SEO/SEM technology and the various search engines, definition of allowable techniques. Those SEO/SEM methods supported by the search engine standards are considered ethical SEO. The remainder is rated as unethical simply because they are not approved by the search engines. Under this paradigm, search engines are assuming the role of the moral authority.
Potential SEO/SEM clients and search engine users do not have a topical understanding of SEO/SEM to effectively evaluate these questions. It is therefore up to the SEO/SEM practitioner and the search engine company executives to define this answer. Search engine companies, in order to drive revenue, depend on displaying a relevant web site list to the inquirer. Consultants, in order to develop clientele. Must provide techniques to place their client’s web site at the top of those lists.
If an SEO consultant strictly adheres to approved search engine optimization methods is that consultant serving the best interests of his client? The goal must be to get listed faster and higher than the client’s competition.
