“Why Can’t a Woman Be More Like a Man?” Rex Harrison:
Generally, a good programmer can know some basic things about SEO.
A programmer turned into an SEO can create wonderful apps (e.g.: Search Analytics for Sheets – Google Workspace Marketplace) or JavaScript/Python scripts.
But a regular programmer would miss the fine details.
SEO looks simple – a few rules to apply.
Yet, when it comes to applying them, there are lots of particularities, and decisions to make.
A lot of basic things in SEO tend to compound, and simple things can become complicated.
Also, even a small mistake in SEO can backfire.
There’s still room for SEO in the market, in my opinion.
