What’s a Cheetah’s Top Running Speed?
Matt Cutts is the man…
Why? Because he works at Google and that’s pretty cool for starters.

Maybe. You’re not the only one who wants to be number one…plus,
SEO definitely isn’t the best strategy for everyone.
There’s a lot of misconceptions out there. And a bunch of wasted effort and expense to be honest.
For example, we do some work for a company that sells disposable medical devices directly to hospitals (syringes, gloves, coats, etc.).
They’ve got a team of sales reps calling on their clients and their website serves kind of like a digital drive-thru window… “Can I take your order please”

Their ideal clients just aren’t poking around on Google or hanging out on facebook, so these strategies are a waste of time.
But honestly, these guys are in the minority. Think of how you find and buy stuff nowadays. It’s pretty rare that you choose to do business with someone without a simple web search.
Okay, here’s Matt’s video about how Google Searches work.
