Yes, I do for my clients IF they pay for it.

Some clients do not care about SEO but IMHO it is a necessary evil particularly if you are doing international commerce or business

I'd like to say only one sentence that you'll get the highest and long term ROI if you choose SEO as a marketing strategy for your business. To know more, you can google to find Successful SEO Case Studies. You'll find a lot of results under it.

Let me know if you need any kind of help related to that as SEO is my cup of tea along with programming.

Cheers!!!

Yes, i use it. Its does not give results in a short term, but in a middle term is really very important.
My sales grows much after some months of SEO on my sites.

I must admit I never gave so much interest about SEO (besides writing clean and W3C standard compliant (X)HTML / CSS), but I discovered its importance when I had to face e-commerce and page ranking. I also discovered how much the "myth" of meta tag is (probably) long time gone since it gives very little help, if not none, to SEO nowadays.

I've discovered that these elements are very important to obtain a valid result:

- keywords density int the content of your page;
- link popularity;
- user friendly urls;
- pertinent title;

Do you agree?
