“There can be only one” Highlander and SEO

"Some excellent points made throughout the article. The only partners I've found with regard to this topic are companies who do what mine does, but are located on the opposite side of the planet (Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, etc.). I once made the mistake of becoming too attached to a single source of rankings-enhancing, high-value hyperlinks in Mixx, and am still feeling the effects of that loss today - not just in the form of rankings but content as well. If I could get back all the content I invested into that site I'm sure I could do something constructive with. You're one of the few people Mr. Leonard whose advice on this topic I'll gladly absorb. I recall a time when I was once in discussions with a man who had a site similar enough to the one I was promoting at the time regarding SEO right before the big one announced it was opening a zoo full of Pandas and Penguins (whichever came first). Tings never materialized - which likely worked out well for both of us considered what was to come. Part of my hesitancy was that I had an intuitive feeling in my gut that change was imminent. Working in this field long enough and surviving as long as I have since I became an entrepreneur at age 23 with no experience whatsoever aside from that as a writer/journalist, one develops a feel for those things, and while it seemed to make sense on paper, I couldn't bring myself to pull the trigger and in retrospect am glad I didn't. It's scary to think of what could have happened had I acted upon said conversations, considering that a few short months later the game was dramatically altered in a manner that made clear such tactics are not ideal strategy."
