Granted, SE traffic is probably the best quality traffic available IF you can get it.

But, lets say for relatively the same amount of effort you can get 5 times as much traffic that's only half as productive. You're still 2½ times ahead.

For example. Only about 10% of the traffic to my network is from keyword searches. I've had an increase in my income every year since I got back into the biz in 2003, with the exception of one break even year. 2011 was a personal record year.

I'm not saying ignore SEO completely, just assess it on the basis of income realized vs time and effort spent. Most of us are one or two man shops, so our own time is our most limited asset.
