I rarely post because its really not necessary to give out advices. people survive people die, thats society, thats life. but if u have a family to feed then i guess its another thing, shouldn't be too cruel to u since u already have a heavy load of pressure on ur shoulder. whether u listen to me or not its up to u. but I play this game since 2006, i witness everything about seo, its like roller coaster, once u jump on the wagon u prepare to ride with thrill. If seo is ur only asset, then u have to remember my advices.

1. Google Keeps Changing. thats why u dont give yourself hope on theory like "my traffic is rising slowly or its going to keep steady constant for years" No. its not like that, ur traffic according to analysis chart should be up and down and up again. Nothing is constant.

2. If google keeps changing, how de heck do I stay top of the game, or at least survive it? Well same to anything in life, knowledge is important, instead of u hiring seo guy, why not read the latest news urself. At least learn something about it, make ur own judgement. It saves u money and build up ur foundation same time. Someone above said "Good seo guy hardly work for other" sure damn hes right, good seo guy makes too much, would u be able to afford the cost to hire him for ur little site? nope. so learn everything urself.

3. What if "I dont have time to learn everything myself", well theres the different between an expert and an investor, entrepreneurship is all about those 2 stages, u start with nothing, build ur expert skills learn everything, once u get good about it, u make money and now u have resource and become an investor to apply money back to ur field to grow. thats how thing should work.

4. Final and the most important point. Nothing is guaranteed or 100%. Thats where Probability and Diversity come in harmony. Ask Warren Buffet, he wont put all his investment on one single business, he diversify. Same to u, dont put all ur energy on one site, because u wont be getting the reward ur deserve nowadays for SEO. Even if ur site rised to the top suddenly, its gonna dropped dead hill one day. So plan ur budget and invest in as many domains and as many sites as possible. Like a group of soldiers going to war, if u had one man down, u still got bunch of supports so that u would have resource to keep fighting.

My final advice, dont burn ur money on seo service anymore, its waste. Remember to learn from top ranking sites, there must be a scheme to something, I give u an example. type in filipina sex in google.com and u will see they are all similar and some even built by same owners. Learn something from them and test it on ur site. Those guys most likely hold a large percent of adult se traffics.
