  • Andy Wigglesworth: 'SEO' ; ) ;
  • Kia Kamgar: I vote 'guru' or 'expert'
  • Jim Munro: I think "Content is king", "Guru" and "Google friendly" are way up there, Martin, but my pet hate is "Keyword Density" because it suckers people into thinking that it might mean something.
  • Martin Harris: The irony being people trying to sell "Keyword density" are also dense in nature :)
  • Neha Bawa: "Is SEO dead"? Hooo boy if I had a penny saved for every single time I heard that question.

    My other un-favorite is "shareable, scalable, valuable content."
  • Simon Fryer: "Social SEO"
  • Federico Sasso: my answer is: (not provided)
  • Dennis Miedema: +Martin Harris ;this is too easy man: "disavow". Don't even get me started on my reasons why because I'll be ranting for hours lol.
  • Brent Wildman: "Link Juice"
  • Martin Harris: I shit you not +Jim Munro ;i've just had a client qoute "2% keyword density" after her friend looked at the site, I nearly burst out laughing.
  • Jim Munro: :)
  • Kasey Moore: 'Guaranteed number one spot on Google'
  • Tony McCreath: Quality

  • Martin Harris: Thanks for the input guys, I've picked the 8 most popular, cast your vote :) http://www.martiniharris.co.uk/vote-on-the-most-annoying-seo-buzz-term/
  • Dennis Miedema: +Martin Harris ;done! Content is king and disavow seem to be winning at the moment :P
  • Simon Fryer: +Martin Harris ;+1000 for the eastbound & down reference. ;
  • Martin Harris: Glad you liked it +Simon Fryer ;with the new season starting I had too! haha
  • Martin Harris: +Dennis Miedema ;"SEO guru" has over taken "disavow" now mate! ;
  • Dennis Miedema: +Martin Harris ;ahhh booo throws rotten tomato lol. In reality, it makes sense that it's now the most popular term because everyone who has been doing SEO and has gotten some results seems to be calling themselves "guru" or "God of SEO" or whatever.
