Especially if you are working with totally clueless bosses or clients who just leave it up to you, on your own, with highly limited resources and then expect a million bucks result at the promised deadline of a project. Those people will hardly ever listen to your needs upfront and will have a million excuses for not doing so. It takes some stress-resistance to be a successful SEO, you will be talked down, you will be stomped at under the table at meetings (I kid you not, I stood up ethically and warned of certain things, and the next thing a client’s manager did to me was stomping my foot so hard, it hurt badly for a couple of days…) you will not get your money for months on end and still have to work, it’s a slave world I tell ya until you are a famous house-slave with a portfolio to back it up, a semi-slave master who can then enjoy some degree of freedom or move on out on his own. That is at least my experience…

SEOs should generally choose very wisely who they partner up with and who they work with, chances are your perfect SEO persona ticks off a lot of “business-type” fellas left and right…
