Another Look at Meta Geo

Another Look at Meta Geo

Some months ago there was a little discussion about meta geo tags following one of Rand's Whiteboard Friday presentations. It seemed like the tags were dismissed as being open to exploitation and probably ignored by the search engines. Lately, though, we've been having a lot of success with helping our smal...

SEOmoz Introduces New Blog & Content Guidelines (in a Good Way)

In just a few weeks, the SEOmoz blog will be celebrating its 4th birthday (the tools and some of the content has been around since 2003, but we think of October 2004 as the formal inception date). In that time, we've come a long way and attracted many of the best and brightest from the search community to participate and communicate through the Blog & YOUmoz. Up until now, though, we've nev...

Mystery Guest is next to me, reading a book we picked up on the Santa Monica pier today, and a Macromedia Flash document is calling to me from the desktop tray, but I'm in the writing mood, so it'll have to wait a little longer.

Q+A Through the Blog: Round 2

I was browsing my friend Jeremy's site last week and saw that he had already reached Round 8 in his Q+A series. I've done it once before here at SEOmoz - Questions Here and Answers Here - but it's been 7 months, so I think we're due for another ro...

Halfway Across Greenland

(WARNING: This post is a little personal, a little off-topic and doesn't offer any SEO advice. If that's not up your alley, feel free to skip it. Thanks!) The flight monitor status shows us hovering dead center on the icy, arrow-shaped island. Mystery Guest is next to me, watching a thriller from British Airways' extensive in-flight collection. And, since I've got a history of writing p...
