Hi All, I'm new here today.

I'm looking to go back to university to do a part-time PhD (having already done four degrees I ought to know better!).

I've been working in SEO/SEM for the past year or so and it never ceases to amaze me just how poor some (sorry a lot of) sites are built. Are people just getting it wrong, just not bothering or putting their faith in other 'professionals' who don't get it right either.

This made me think about what new ideas could be looked into so as to help site owners out. Try to nail down a few unknowns or clear up some areas of uncertainty and things like that.

Does anyone have any ideas which they think would make good topics for research at university?

This is left as quite a general question as I don't want to rule out any (sensible) replies.

I look forward to any replies
