You know you’ve been in the SEO industry too long, when you decide to perform a rock song about the topic.

It’s definitely time to get out, if you find yourself tapping your foot and singing along to the lyrics. :-)

In case you need the lyrics, here they are:

=====

I built this site for the world to see

Content and Links are found in plenty

Crawl my site everyday and night

Come on spider take a look at me

 

Bot Bot Bot (Let Me Show You What I Got)

 

There’s plenty of stuff for you to see

My nav is easy to follow

Just read the sitemap and you’ll see

Come on spider take at me

 

Bot Bot Bot (Let Me Show You What I Got)

 

Come and crawl my code oh yeah!

You’ll find my site’s easy to read

No errors found whatsoever

All my pages are validated

 

Bot Bot Bot (Let Me Show You What I Got)

 

No traps for you to get stuck

ISAPI paves the way

Text and links are served up rich

Don’t worry about flash there’s none to see

 

Bot Bot Bot (Let Me Show You What I Got)

 

So much I want you to read

No link farms or stuffing on me

What you see is what they see

Come on spider take at me

Bot Bot Bot (Let Me Show You What I Got)

 

Slurp, Googlebot, MSNbot, Webscooter, Teoma

 

Bot Bot Bot (Let Me Show You What I Got)

Thanks to Amanda of iCrossing for passing on the link. The song is written by Richard Chavez, Senior Natural Search Optimization Strategist for the company. Let’s hope he optimizes better than he sings. ;-)

    Is there a way to ban that music? Or at least put a penalty on it?

    Richard-Great guitar work. To those bashing the guy, you probably can’t write code and chew gum at the same time. Pansies.

    Chavez keep up the good work man. You’re a great ambassador to the agency and to the NSO space.

    G-UNIT

    Thank you for checking out my SEO rock song. Some of you liked it and some of you hated it. Nevertheless, I had a great time writing the song and am glad to share with so many people.
