I did a report for a bank once, and the final conclusion was: there is nothing you can do except one thing: start again.

Yeah, what is it about financial institutions that prompts them to build such cr@p sites? I studied the Top 100 Aussie business sites for SE compatibility a couple of years back and banks and insurance sites were the worst!

Perception is reality.

..... perception is everything.

I'm sure you all know the often-told story about the 5 men who were blindfolded and asked to touch an elephant and describe what it was.

"I have touched the elephant and it is a rope.. a wall.. a spear.. a snake.. a fan"

In this case, your business is the elephant and your customers are surely blindfolded when it comes to the realities of SEO.
