That contest I was just mentioning... I've got a personal request. Let's all link the term "v7ndotcom elursrebmem" over to Michael Gray's Wolf-Howl website. Why? Rather ...
The contest terms were announced today at noon PST. If you're unfamiliar with this contest I'll give a bit of background: John Scott (of V7N, Bluefind Directory & Sevenseek) announced the creation of a contest back in December. The first prize would be...
SEOBook is running a very cool series where Aaron answers some of his visitors' (and readers') questions directly on the blog. A few of the recent entries include: How Often Should I Check my Backlinks? - Answering the age old paranoid question about whether the search engines monitor and penalize those who "link watch."...
The last few months have seen a torrent of requests for bids and services at SEOmoz. We're inundated with new business, which is why the recommended companies page has become the link I'm most likely to send out in an email these days. Luckily, this onslaught has given me the opportunity to learn a lot about the process of pricing, which is the subject of...
Kim Krause and Danny Sullivan both chipped in with great posts on the subject of the history of people, events and operations in the SEO world. From Danny: ...
Andy's hilarious post at SEJournal made me sit back and think. The SEO community, in my mind, centers around a few areas of mass congregation. In the offline world: ...
With my recent blog entries I’ve been talking about budget SEO and how to build a decent low-budget (US$500) SEO scheme. In this part I’m going to briefly address content and keyword targeting...

The thread starts with a gaze into the crystal ball of SEO and looking ahead to the future, but it evolves into a debate about the definition of SEO and whether aspects like usability, conversion rates, site stickiness and others fall into the realm o...
Todd (Stuntdubl) has a great post today on his views for what will be hot in 2006 vs. 2005. I can certainly get behind most of his picks, although I'd love a definition for some of the more obscure ones like: algorithm variable hedge betting? web-copy language synonymy substitution? Algorithm variable...
I'm finally back in Seattle after a very nice trip to Florida. On the plane, I was thinking more broadly about the SEO industry and how quickly demand is going to outstrip supply (note the high nu...
What a great year. Honestly - I could never have imagined a 12 month period in which so much growth and exposure has exploded on our small SEO firm, nestled snuggly in the far Northwest corner of the US. Spending some time away from work over the holidays has made me realize just how much I love my job and how lucky I am to be able to go into work every day feeling excited and hopeful a...
SERoundtable is hosting an expert question answering forum - anyone (this means you) can ask a question in the thread and moderators will open up a dialogue "expert" thread to discuss the subject in det...
I've been blogging on a couple of personal sites for nearly two years, following the model that I've seen across the web. Most of my posts are a short article of a paragraph or two, an image and then a link to an important web resource that I sincerely recommend to ...
