Retailers fail to maximise SEO

Whilst I have been pointing out how retail career sites seem to be missing the very basics of SEO (Search Engine Marketing) low and behold and as if by magic, SearchEngineWatch publish an article 'Retailers SEO efforts found lacking'.

If you want to see how your career site compares to their research either read the article or have at look at my basic summary taken direct from their article.

If it all sounds a bit too confusing, feel free to contact me.
