Embedding SEO Into Your Company
There is a big difference between working on your own sites, and working on sites that belong to others. When you work on your own sites, you can execute changes quickly, and you don't need to convince anyone else of the merits of your actions. However, within an organization, SEO requires significant buy-in on a number of levels.

Using SEO As An Extension Of Marketing
When I was about 1 year into the field of SEO my friend brought me over to his parent's house for a winter break for a few days. His dad is a genius (in about every way possible) and worked at the time as an archivist that digitized old content collections for media companies. I told him of what I did (SEO) and he told that I should learn XSLT, and that Google would soon kill the field of SEO.

Increase Site Traffic Easily And Affordably
Many people doing business online have great websites but don't seem to be selling anything. Their products or services are top-notch, and their looks both professional and unique. So why aren't they making any money? The issue is that it really doesn't matter how amazing your website is if no one ever sees it.

Is your site ready to cope with this year's online Christmas spend?
If you don't have enough bandwidth in place for your website it could prevent traffic coming through if you get a sudden demand, or if you don't have 100% network uptime, your site could be unavailable. Both will cost you money.

Picasa's Privacy Vulnerabilities Repaired
Google's photo storing app Picasa Web Albums had a bit of a privacy vulnerability. When you create an unlisted album to send to friends, you'll usually not expect the URL to get out to non-friends - that's why Google included an authentication key parameter in the URL so it's not possible to quickly guess the address (they didn't in the beginning, which allowed you to e.g. see Larry Page's unlisted album, but Google were later convinced it makes sense).
