Slashdotted
SEOmoz's Beginner's Guide was just Slashdotted. We'll see how the server holds up, but there's a lot of very big files to be accessed there... Sorry for any lag. More to report soon. UPDATE: The lag should be gone by now. We made some...

9Rules Network - What am I Missing?
I've been wanting to write about the 9 Rules Network for sometime now. They've got a good looking design, they link to some well-known (and little-known bloggers) and have a Web 2.0ey (just coined that adjective) feel that is backed up by ...
New Yorker Licensing Cartoons Online
The New Yorker magazine, which I read from time to time on vacation or long plane trips, has an online site - CartoonBank.com - that allows users to browse through their tens of thousands of cartoons (sorted by subject) a...

OK, folks. We've got a new contender to add to our list of social tagging / collective bookmarking sites. In SEO, the more the merrier, but in that industry, you're only as strong as your community. Shoutwire (the newcomer) is pretty...

Yes, Virginia, Design can be Link Bait, too
I've struggled for a while trying to find this URL, that I was sure I emailed myself and sure enough, there it was, right in the email, getting overlooked the last 50 times I searched for it. But, my own tagging problems aside, this site, ...
SEO Gurus - A Decidely Dodgy Bunch
Jill Whalen's linking to a good post on her (new?) blog through her signature at HighRankings. I like what she's got to say: Often, when they get their answer, they write back with something like, “But, so-and-so SEO guru wrote this article here at [insert stupid SEO site that prints ...
Beginner's Guide Finally Finished
For the last 4 weeks, I've been toiling away in my non-existant free time on a Beginner's Guide to SEO. My goal was to have a comprehensive document that I could reference to the many newcomers I engage through email, forums and in person. The final product is something I'm already proud of, though I hope to get even more feedback and improve it over time. I...
Good Retrospective from Jim Boykin
Jim (of WeBuildPages) was interviewed by Aaron Pratt of SEO Buzzbox (a site I hadn't heard about until today). In it, he talks about the last few years of running an SEO company, getting called out for being "evil" by Matt Cutts and touches on how he's gotten "whiter" with the times. It's a ...

Don't Like a Result in the SERPs? Hijack It!
At SEW, rumbinder is asking what can be done about an SEC investigation page that pops up whenever folks search for his company. The first piece of advice comes from seomike, who shows rumbinder the 302-hijacking trick and recommends its use to "take down" the SEC page. ...
Cyber Monday
The media's got a name for the "biggest online shopping day of the year", the Monday following "Black Friday" and Thanksgiving in the US. Our two (holiday benefitting) e-commerce sites actually saw higher sales yesterday and today, but I guess we're outside the mainstream. A good article on the subject comes from the IHT - ...
Oilman Wants Your Sandboxed Sites
Todd Friesen, who lives here in Washington (though I never see him since he's nowhere near Seattle), is inviting folks with Sandboxed sites to email him. All of ours are currently out (probably because we haven't taken on a new customer in more than a year), but I wish I had some to send him. I know Bill's SEO by...
SEO Myths - A List and Discussion
Bill Slawski starts an SEO Myths thread at Cre8asite that's a true gem. I've excerpted some of my favorite myths he's covered, but it's the evidence and explanations that contain the meat of this post, so take a visit: MYTHS of SEO: SEO copywriting means writing strong copy, then inserting keywords wit...
SEOmoz and Wired Magazine
As several of my close associates know, SEOmoz was to be featured in the January issue of Wired Magazine (which hits newsstands around Dec. 19). In October, Brad St...
