Google’s Matt Cutts was asked a question at Google Webmasters about common SEO myths:
Question: What are some of the biggest SEO myths you see still being repeated (either at conferences, or in blogs etc.)
I studied Computer Engineering and Computer Science in London, UK and I am now living in Athens, Greece. I went online in 1995, started coding in 1996 and began buying domain names and creating websites in 2000. I started the OnlineDomain.com blog in 2012.
This is the best I’ve seen Cutts cut through the chase, and give the honest opinion, which is:
1. do your own thing
2. do the right thing
3. stop kissing Google’s ass
4. stop group-think
5. be innovative
It was worth watching. I don’t even think Cutts is privy to what/s going on in Google’s upper floors. He may be powerful enough to push a couple of buttons to impact my properties negatively, that’s about it. Let him go ahead.
