Amen. At first I couldn’t understand why anyone would prefer a non-optimized solution over an optimized solution. To me, then, that was exactly like preferring an inopportune event to an opportune event — like preferring getting in a car crash on the way to a movie instead of arriving a few minutes early to that movie and getting great seats. Now, that opinion isn’t quite as absolute, I suppose! 😀

Thanks for pointing me to the academic side of the invisible web — I’ve been reading up on this research which I must have, *ahem*, ‘overlooked’. 😉

Although it may help them get a few more clients down the road, not all companies are interested, or have the resources to expand.

After working in SEO for even a short while we quickly forget that for many people SEO really is not a desire. Much of the Internet is still hidden away from the search engines, and not just because Google does not like the sites! The “invisible web” is cited a lot in academic research. There is so much good information that is blocked off from robots and non-members alike.
