SEO/SEMs Continue to Whine

It is hilarious to me that “professional” SEOs and SEMs whine and cry when they lose clients … especially to the host themselves. Recently, bitching occured when Google was contacting their OWN AdWords clients for their direct PPC management service. And Google is the “bad guy” in this? Please.

Now Yahoo! is getting blamed for “stealing” clients. Read the thread at Webmaster World. So, let me get this straight. Yahoo! and Google launch a PPC ad network. You, as a “PPC Management Specialist”, add keywords and change bids (highly technical stuff). Then, Google and Yahoo! have the nerve to call “your” client and offer their own PPC Management service direct and you complain? Please. Without Google and Yahoo! you wouldn’t have a business. Maybe that is the problem.

Maybe the problem is you, and not with Yahoo! or Google. Maybe the reason that you are a “PPC Advisor” or “PPC Manager” is that you are too affraid to do it on your own.

Stop blaming others for your own faults. Fire your clients. They are a weight around your neck.
