I'd just go with I told you so.

Then Google slap him

Great news. A win for the Good Guys.

This may help you tell your boss...

That's like signing your resignation

[UnderRugSwept]

Hilarious. BTW, I enjoyed your recent case study as well.

The best is not "I told you so" it is a lesson in general, that slow and steady wins the race....

There is some falacy in business that has been perpetuated that the analogy work smarter not harder is somehow true, and a longterm winning strategy.

In most areas of business working harder AND smarter is needed...

and SEO is one of those areas for continued growth, and to alleviate the sleepless nights of worry if that "Last Tactic" will be the straw that breaks the camels back

Not sure if i could have worked in more metaphors in there

[Aran_Smithson]

Thanks Marisa, nice cool to get good feedback fom other SEOs, after all we can be a very critical bunch

I'm going to do another you moz post soon as a follow up as I'm still getting some great traffic from my efforts. Though, I haven't yet heeded my own advice and put an hour aside to jump on another meme.

[SEOclient12]

Would be funny though.

Personally I'd just use it for him to trust you in the future and bring it up whenever you need to back up a point he doesn't agree with.

[Keszi]

How about: sign the resignation, go in, slap him, and he wants to fire you... Then you say: "Nonono! You miss understood me, you don't fire me, I quit! :D"

And BTW: There is a need for them to know that anyone can make mistakes, bosses, managers too.

[EGOL]

I would not say anything.

You never know what google will be targeting next week.... or where errant arrows will hit.

[UnderRugSwept]

Yeah, that was a joke. I'm not really going to tell him I told him so. I just need to break the news to him in a way that will remind him that I was never behind this decision.
