Also "Why do we as SEO’s get blamed when our clients don’t follow our advice?" I think that's the old "the customer is always right" coming into play and its something we as an industry conveniently forget when we quote for new business. Few of us have the relationships in place (or the brains it seems) to respect each others abilities and ask the previous SEO for advice or input.We quickly forget the last time that a client made us look bad from not following our advice. I make a point of never admonishing another's work in any way until I know the project and know the client inside out and by then there's no point in complaining, its better to just get on with it.
