I had a great discussion about the actual pages you optimize when a client hires you for work.

For our example, pretend the client has a 50 page site, and 40 pages are unique product pages. You are getting paid to rank for 10 keyphrases, of that, 5 of those phrases are for unique products (not categories).

Do you optimize every page of the site?
Do you optimize the pages that will rank and support the 10 keyphrases?
If you were the client would you expect all pages to be optimized?

I look forward to your replies.

I always give them more than they ask for or expected. This has always made for good referals for me. Doing onpage work only takes a few min. So on an additional 30 pages that will then rank and generate income for them will be more value to you than any advertising that you could do.

My partner used to get the RED a.. with me for insisting on this type of attitude, But now he just GRINS when he gets the referals!

This is why all of our jobs are going overseas, because of our lazy attitudes in America. There are a lot of companies getting SEO work done in India now because of the greed and lazy habits of americans, The attitude of "I will do it for this much extra" When all we have to do is make the client happy and then you get the years of referals. How much do you lose for NOT going the extra mile?

Just my take on it.

Well it depends on the money they are paying, well I optimize only the homepage.
