Readers, 

For the past year I have been designing websites and SEO (Search Engine Optimization) for a number of different industries. One common issue I feel most website designers do not have is the knowledge of SEO when designing a website. It is by know means a failed effort on their behave but a lack of knowledge due to education platforms. Your website design plays a major role in the ability to execute an effective SEO strategy. 

I strong suggest for website designers to consultant or learn more about how to design around a strong optimization plan while maintaining the clients needs and wants.
