SEO - To Be Dead or Not to Be

SEO - To Be Dead or Not to Be
The Internet has been filled with rumors stating that SEO or search engine optimization is dead. Web owners and other online business entrepreneurs get apprehensive and anxious when they read titles that emphasize that “SEO is dead”. So is all this hoopla true? Well, for starters, stop spending sleepless nights over such baseless rumors.

The fact of the matter is that every SEO professional out there is not scared because SEO is dead, but because it has been functioning like a zombie! For instance, every time people claim that this concept is dead, it often seems to come back with a vengeance. So, we can say that every time SEO comes back from the dead, it becomes more complex and more difficult to master and tackle.

It is somehow strange to think that the more the people highlight these bizarre claims, the more SEO seems to boom by numbers and I mean money not just traffic.

So what is the real truth? The truth is that the concept of SEO may not be dead, as of yet. But the viral nature of SEO is most definitely losing its edge. I'm sure by now that someone must have already established a “Dead-o-Meter site” for SEO.

Let us go back in history to put an end to this debate once and for all. Let’s go back in time for a second and you will notice that SEO seems to have suffered many deaths since 1997! And that was the year the term SEO was coined! Ironic isn't it?
