Impossible. Actually there are organizations like SEMPO and there are Internet marketing degrees etc etc but it's virtually impossible to regulate because of the rapid change that takes place. A bit of a cop out, I admit, but a real issue. Having always been on the sales side of the ledger and I saw most of the trouble coming from there. Since I am a firm believer in the fact that you can't legislate morality it is up to the search providers to reign in their sales staff to make sure this disconnect is avoided. Most of the people I have met who do the actual search work are nice people. Even nice people have breaking points though. As always, it as a pleasure having you stop by my spot here. Keep up the great work, Danny! @Danny – Dumb? Impossible.

Most professional service industries have either accreditation or ombudsman organizations to keep them regulated. Perhaps this is needed for the Internet marketing industry too? It could be on a renewable basis, to make sure you're keeping up-to-date with latest methods and tools. (Apologies if I'm being dumb and this is already in place).
