You want better Google ratings? Sell products that don't suck. People are becoming more savvy, and the smell of marketers is getting more noticeable, to the point you people are actually paying established bloggers for their good reviews of your crap - you think people don't see this? Your greed is reeking. Thought I’d give you a customer’s perspective. You want better Google ratings? Sell products that don’t suck.

Even though our industry is much in demand, its only a matter of time where the experts (10+ years of SEM experience) have to compete with cheaper salaried kids with SEM degrees out of school. SEM is something that can be taught but not something that can be learned well, without years of experience and trial and error with current trends... Thought I would leave my 3 cents on the topic! :o) The SEM industry is much like the IT tech boom of the early 1990′s and the web designer/developer demand of the late 1990s.

I can tell you that most if not all of our competition is completely ignorant and even my own company is only mildly aware (I've been trying to raise awareness). There is a huge demand, it's just that most companies are not even aware of their deficiency in this area.
