20 Minutes to Mention Paid Links: SES London Day 1, Part 1

I'm attending the first day of SES London as an unofficial SEOmoz correspondent. Rather than providing a live-blogging "he said; she said" commentary Rand has asked me to provide overviews & analytic commentary; I'll certainly do my best, but if I end up talking about what I had for my lunch you'll know that Rand got the wrong guy for the job. The day got off to...

Premium Content Training During a Special Session at SMX West

A fair criticism of SEOmoz's Premium Content has always been that while the material inside is valuable, the organization and instructions don't always provide a clear path, particularly for those new to the service or for inexperienced search marketers. Back in December, I wrote a post that walked through how to use many of the tools and content pieces inside Premium, and now, at SMX West next...

SEO Comic: Ranked Hard

Before I get flamed, I realize this can be seen as self-promotional and of course it is to some degree. I'm promoting it and I am myself, so I am self-promoting.

Who's Tedster? If You're an SEO, You Should Know

He's arguably the most well-known poster at WebmasterWorld.com. He's cited by some of the most reputable SEO minds in the industry. He has likely influenced hundreds if not thousands of enterprising webmasters. Who is this veritable titan of SEO that I speak of? Why Tedster of course. I know, I know.

Putting the Tipping Point to Work

My copy of The Tipping Point had been collecting dust on the bookshelf for a couple of years now and while moving some things around I found myself thumbing through the pages. I know from a few comments that a handful of SEOMoz members and employees have read the book, and I decided it might be worthwhile for me to reread it again....

The 4 Biggest Threats Google Faces

I had a fascinating breakfast discussion with Jonathan Hochman from Hochman Consultants on Friday about Google's market dominance and the potential roads that might eventually lead to their fall. Naturally, we looked for comparison companies to help inform our thinking. While firms like AT&T and Exxon met their demise from anti-trust laws, Google is l...

Besides that, I've also got some cool things to share with you about your fellow members here. The calendar already has SMX West marked (albeit for a single day?), but only a few people seem to be attending besides the moz staff. So he...
