Whom would you choose ?

If you were to select ONE of the following for consulting , whom would you choose? Funding is not a constraint.

*Aaron Wall
*Eric Ward
*Bruce Clay
*Jim Boykin
*Eric Engie

Any other recommendations ?

I would mostly likely choose Jim but that is only because I'm most familiar with his work. Bruce Clay would probably be my last choice. Certainly they are all highly rated...Eric Ward and Aaron in particular.

Eric Ward and Aaron Wall coz i am familiar with their stuff.....of course there's a great respect feeling for all those mentioned.

EGOL and Fathom are right up there for me........(well as LKS said, if they offer private consultation)!!

And BTW, hey LKS.....you're not a bad choice either. (Seriously)

now that does not means you hike your charges!!

With unlimited funding anyone can get you to the top of the SEs. All business decisions basically fall back to ROI and opportunity cost. Those people you have quoted will provide different services for different levels of spending. It is not so much the SEO but the people they employ to create and promote your link bait. If money is no constraint then SEO is uneccesary as you or the client are already wealthy as you/they want to be.

Put paid advertisements in all newspapers, magazines, TV stations etc Watch your traffic sky rocket. Pay Mel Gibson and Angela Jolie to promote your site. Pay for unique research that is ground breaking. Pay the Russions to put an enormous Banner in Space promoting your website. Buy 51% of google....

Spending money on the individual SEO is not the best way to go. Spend money on the stratergy and tatics being propossed....

If you spend the money and do not get the return watch how quickly the client will suddenly see the money being 'wasted' as a constraint...

Thanks for the input guys !

@ Gazzak: point well taken. I should have been more specific to mention that the VC funding is targetted at linkbait execution.

Thanks once again. Highly appreciated.
