And in the past, plenty of you have emailed members of our staff asking a critically important question: "Where should I go to eat and drink?"
Today is a good day. Whether you're employed at Moz, a fan of what we've built, a Seattle-startup supporter or even tangentially involved in the field of web marketing, there's reason to celebrate. After 5 years of organic growth (from our initial funding in 2007) and two tough, failed attempts at financing, I'm excited to announce that SEOmoz has raised $18 million in venture...

This year's MozCon was, undoubtedly, the best event we've ever put on. The 500 attendees had some incredibly kind things to say about the event, perhaps the most remarkable of which is captured in below in some of the charts I've extracted from a survey we ran to attendees. As many who attend professional events in the SEO/online marketing world know, finding expert-level content is a huge challenge...
