SEO is just a portion of any marketing campaign, it is not that big a portion either in my opinion-it can bring boatloads but is it as effective as other mediums of PR (industry dependant)?

But your point is true, SEO firms and agencies do miss the point of quality content and convertible info which often goes overlooked as Rankings are the factor of success or failure.

Shame I missed the twitter banter, but I’m picking up the gist of it here and elsewhere. Great discussion to have…

The truth of the matter is (imho) that everyone here is lucky. We’re all pushing boundaries between communications disciplines. And sometimes we don’t share the same definitions of those disciplines before we start violently agreeing with eachother.

There’s a huge amount of cross-over between PR and natural search. And there’s going to be a lot more going forward.

Natural links from high page-rank sites, natural links from high-traffic driving sites, and natural liks from “influential” sites are all extremely valuable – though they all offer different sorts of “value”. Could us PR people (though I do prefer communicators) be the ones who advise clients and comms directors what that value is and what the focus of their online campaigns could therefore be? I hope so.
