Great points. It reminds me of the old idea 80% of the work is done by 20% of the people. It seems in SEO only a few are forward thinking and proactive, and the rest follow along playing copy cat.

Your post is a good reminder how excellence requires innovation and taking chances.

I think this is too general as a comment, especially one that draws analogies with Apple and Microsoft. SEO is a problem that one either gets or doesn’t. Sure as things go on, more precision is required, but the game really hasn’t changed that much from 10 years ago. From a business point of view, it simply means the barriers to entry are more expensive than it was to compete in SEO which means Online MArketing as a whole will become more important than it ever has.

I also think the game is getting harder and more mature. I also agree that you should be ahead of the game (and disagree with Joost), but… not too much. For a scientist or an artist it’s cool if they can say after 200 years that you were ‘ahead of your time’, but these guys usually were very poor…

SEO is an industry of making money, so being too far ahead of your time actually means you’re not a good SEO. So yes, you should definitely be ahead of your time, but only to be the first to react when something changes.
