Where Is All This Bad Information Coming From?

Last fall, I had the pleasure of speaking at an industry conference full of passionate, like-minded people. I can honestly say it was a wonderful experience.

Before I gave my presentation, no one at the event knew who I was. Between sessions, I was approached by a very young, highly energetic man. When he asked what my particular interest in the conference was, I informed him that I would be speaking on SEO shortly. Upon hearing this news, he immediately became 10x more interested in me.

Developers don't care about design; they just care about making things work.

Designers don't care about development; they just care about making things look good.

SEOs don't care about design or development; they just care about rankings.

Those are just a few examples, but I call bullshit on all three.
