That was the editorial "you." I already knew your position on "PR sculpting" via "no follow," and I myself have always been sufficiently sceptical to not invest any effort in trying it.

Cheap SEO: it’s about quality, not price : Internet Business

Damn it man! Every sheppard or farmer play SEO our days. And I am just damn sick of that.
It's a universal problem, at least as old as recorded history.

If it involves a skill that cannot be objectively quantified, one from which the claim to its possession holds out the promise of easy riches, charlatans are sure to congregate. For example, the number of "SEO Experts" pales in comparison to the number of "IT Consultants."

As for "SEO," it's a name that I avoid, for lack of any universally accepted definition. Other than my own, I have yet to see one that does not ultimately rely on tautology. Mine is as follows:

1) An SEO - A publicist for a web site.
2) The process of SEO - Collectively, the methods employed by an SEO.

There are, of course, those who would take great exception to the above, arguing that "SEO" is in fact "highly specialized." To them I would reply that "A specialist is one who knows nearly everything about almost nothing."
