I think the point he is trying to make, and failing miserably at, is that knowing exactly how to increase a web site's ranking in Google isn't a marketable skill and that "anyone can do it"

This is his overall goal of trying to paint me, in his mind, as nothing but a retard who somehow fell into a good job out of pure luck...while he, the brilliant Aestu, has been screwed over by outside factors.

He asked me to list what skills I have that would set me apart from all the other people looking for jobs, I believe my knowledge of search marketing is my greatest skill.


In his defense, he also doesn't know that I was able to get into Ohio State's first search marketing class when I was just a freshman (I had to personally write to the Dean, since it was a senior only class), and that I received an A+.

He also doesn't know that I have been to Google's New York City (Chelsea) offices and spoken with both their business side employees and even a few engineers about search. He doesn't know that I've built and sold multiple web sites by getting them to rank highly for competitive terms. He doesn't know how many Search Marketing/SEO books I have at home and that I've read all of them. He doesn't know what SEO conferences I've attended or which industry leaders I know personally.

He dismissed the fact that I had an internship at a large pharmaceutical company simply because of this experience, and that they followed my recommendations.

He dismisses the fact that instead of working for a large SEO firm working on client web sites...I took a job where I knew I could potentially get an ownership stake and work on sites that I own. Yes, I thought I would be happier working in a small business than being a corporate drone. I was right.




I don't say this to show off, but this is a clear example of Aestu's reality distortion field allowing him to convince himself that he still is much better than me, and I have no definable skills.

He has challenged me to present facts and "how to's" and assert my knowledge of the field. I have done so, and anyone other than Aestu should realize that....yes, I actually know what the fuck I'm talking about when it comes to this stuff.

Also, now that you lay it all out it seems a bit more interesting. "I know how to game search engines" does sound like a less than interesting skill from that sentence alone. Not that I didn't think it was important to businesses, just didn't seem very interesting.

They aren't "dumb,"

Yes, they are.

If it is as you say, then I'd say that's pretty legit.

Your wider opinions are still ignorant though.
