SEO Industry Standards

Talking SEO, is there a singles source for industry standards? I would like to find one?

Standards imply that there is a right or wrong. This is a distraction from your goal. The standards you need to be aware of are:

1) Search engine guidelines from Google. As the big kid on the block, you must be aware of their guidelines.

2) Standards of your clients

3) Your own professional standards regarding the work you would claim as your own

Those should be your primary guides.
