One of them lost 40% of his sales as a result of one update. I think he got a portion of that back, but SEO is all he does. And while he makes big $, taking that kind of hit is not fun for anyone

Having your income be that tied to something out o your control scares the shit out of me. Although Im not a search guy, so maybe if you are good at what you do and you loose a big % from an update, its easier than I think to get back.
