DAVID
So what’s new this week?
BETHANY
I learnt how to do search engine optimisationing.
DAVID
You learnt seach engine what?
BETHANY
Optimisationing.
DAVID
Excellent, how far did you get?
BETHANY
What do you mean how far?
DAVID
Well how much did you learn?
BETHANY
All of it.
DAVID
All of it?
BETHANY
YES, all of it. Which part of that sentence is confusing you?
DAVID
I’m not confused, I’m sceptical. I took me months to learn all the different facets of search engine optimisation and you’re saying you’ve learnt all of it in, what, a week?
BETHANY
It was more like… say… an hour.
DAVID
An hour?
BETHANY
OK, it was more like 60 minutes.
DAVID
Ok – so let’s say you’re posting an article on our blog, how would you go about optimising that for the search engines?
BETHANY
I’d paste the article into the WordPress thing, click on Analyze, and make the recommended adjustments until I get a decent score. Simple.
DAVID
Oh I see. You’re using the WordPress plugin called Scribe SEO to help you optimise the posts for the search engines.
BETHANY
Yep, it’s really easy.
DAVID
That isn’t really learning SEO is it?
BETHANY
Why not?
DAVID
Well Scribe SEO does the keyword research for you and then tells you what keywords to add and where to put them. I don’t need to use that. Because I spent months learning SEO I can do my own keyword research and I can figure out where to put the keywords myself.
BETHANY
So?
DAVID
So you haven’t REALLY learned SEO, have you?
BETHANY
No, you’re absolutely right, I didn’t waste MONTHS learning SEO. I used technology to achieve the same thing in a fraction of the time.
DAVID
(No comeback)
BETHANY
Don’t you feel a bit stupid having wasted such a big chunk of your life on something that a plugin can do in a couple of minutes?
DAVID storms off
BETHANY
Well, it looks like I’ll have to finish this video off. Don’t waste time trying to figure out all the SEO stuff yourself; use Scribe SEO instead. It’s dead easy to use and it works a treat.
BETHANY
That’s just childish.
