I totally agree with you!
Basic SEO knowledge could point out flaws, but it does take some experience to make a plan/strategy and purpose.
"Would SEO help you or would it be pointless?"
If you own a pizzeria in Gainesville, FL - why should you rank #1 for the term "Pizza"?
I love what I do, and I hope people who get replies from me see that! :)

#23I don't currently have a website that I'd like to SEO, but I will in the future. Maybe those who get help would be willing to post the advice they receive, so that all of us benefit?
If you're interested in SEO and would like to learn, I recommend you start reading http://www.seomoz.org/blog
SEOMoz is a great SEO-company, and they have an incredibly useful blog. From novice to advance!

We're building support software. As in a ticketing system which aggregates all support tickets from email(imap), twitter, facebook and others.

#25Google have a great SEO Starter Guide up at http://www.google.com/webmasters/docs/search-engine-optimiza... . I would love to hear how your techniques in a more general sense are different from or build on top of what Google are already providing for free to the public?
Google's Starter Guide is to SEO as "Teach Yourself Javascript in 24 Hours" is to programming. It is kind of difficult to describe the ocean in terms of the marginal change in experience from getting your feet wet.

#26This might be officially time for SearchYC.com to add an "Offer HN" section!

#27Sorry, the account was created two hours ago, don't have a personal site and any proof that has worked for IKEA or others. PS: SEO must find the correct keywords for a site not the client...
I created this account 2 hours ago, yes - but your point is?
I read HN every day,I read the comments, and I understand the culture here.
I was thinking I could give something back to the community by answering some questions.
"SEO must find the correct keywords for a site not the client" - I don't quite understand what you meant by this, so please elaborate.
Proof and a personal site; I'm not here to promote my business and I'm not here to brag about my clients/past clients. I simply stated that I have worked with them, and whether or not you chose to believe me or not - your choice!

I'm fairly certain that the majority of potential customers in our sector (information security) don't want to fill in a form, although we do have a few visitors.
We are in the same sector and have had great success with the "step signup" process - i.e. contact forms.
YMMV. But mid-range corporates feel happy about such things.
Random observation; but for anything related to corporate purchasing the more finicky you make it (within reason) the better it is liked. Middle managers are overjoyed to ring you up, ask for a costing, then ring again for an invoice and finally a third time to give you card details.

#29Hey Sebastian, great offer! I'd love if you'd take a look at Fridge to Food: http://www.fridgetofood.com Keywords: recipe sharing, foodie community, ingredient search Honestly, I could use help coming up with other keywords. I've been having trouble boiling down the concept into a few keywords. The best I can do is TasteSpotting meets StackOverflow (and eventually LocalHarvest). Shoot me an e-mail at dbingham@fridget…
Woohoo a cakephp user! I'd like to use that again. That said, you should probably update your favicon :p

That's quite interesting. Most of the people visiting our site come from other marketing channels and are (at least looking at the heatmaps and a/b testing results) generally checking us out.
Have you got a link to one of your sites with the step signup process?
