Seriously, I have heard this on more than one occasion.  Are you kidding me?  That might be one of the worst schools of thought in the entire microcosm of SEO.

A few similar phrases (to show how dumb this way of thinking is):

  • “You’re not a real fisherman until you sink your boat”
  • “You’re not a real doctor until you kill a patient”
  • “You’re not a real stripper until your boobs fall off”

I would like to propose a new statement to circulate through the SEO community to respond to the more asinine, established one.

“You’re probably not a real SEO if you are getting your sites banned“
