Is SEO still the ‘Holy Grail’ of search?

The world of search engine optimisation (SEO) is a place where change happens quickly and often with little or no warning. It seems like one day there’s a way of implementing a particular procedure – and woosh – the next day it’s considered ‘good practice’ to do it differently. Then there’s the huge arsenal of [...]
