1: You’ve spent longer than 30 minutes crafting a title tag.
2: You tell your colleagues that it’s “all about TRAFFIC, not RANKINGS!”. Yet you are secretly as obsessed as they are.
3: When you’re not at work you check rankings on you’re phone, making sure to go through a proxy to get desktop SERPS, naturally.
4: You’ve been so happy that a website was finally ranking on first page… before realising you’re signed in.

6: One day you’ll give Rich Snippets a try. Honestly, you will.
7: You do of course deplore black hat techniques… but secretly thumb up a YouMoz post that mentions a good trick.
8: You can instantly list 6 good reasons why you’re client’s developer’s idea for an Ajax site is a terrible idea.
9: You’ve gasped when a URL you’re looking for doesn’t have a Cache. “Probably just the data centers” you say, not really knowing what that means.
10: You have at least one secret SEO theory you’ll take to the grave.
11: You’re not on Facebook when you shouldn’t be, you’re “investigating how social networks have helped this piece of content spread”. Or something like that.

13:You join the WWF because of the Panda update.
14: You occasionally joke that you’ll “phone up Google” to get something fixed. You know this is hilarious.
15: You’re jealous that with PPC it is so much easier to control rankings.
16: When you see someone using Bing of their own free will, you are amazed and point at them like you’re at the zoo.
17: You have never actually seen someone click a PPC ad, unless they were testing that a landing page works.
18: You’ve scrolled up and down the original PageRank paper deciding whether to read it. You quietly clicked Back.
19: You stare at the board in your office, reminiscing of Whiteboard Fridays gone by.
20: You can spot an out of date Analytics code from 20 paces.
21: You’re half way over to Yahoo! Site Explorer before you realise it’s gone.
22: The word “canonicalization” just rolls off your tongue.
23: Infographics are your top shelf magazines.
