This Month In SEO Archive

I thought I’d play the role of the good son and dedicate This Week In SEO to my mom who returned from a three week trip to China a few days ago. I’ve only heard a few details of the trip at the moment, but expect to hear many more when visiting next week. She went with a photographer client of mine so I have a hunch I’ll be seeing quite a few images of the trip while building a new China portfolio.

As always there’s a lot to get to and more links at my del.icio.us profile and StumbleUpon profile. On with the show.

No more baseball. With all the recent baseball dedications I’m at a loss for a dedication. Google for their $700+ stock price? Nah, How about I devote today’s This Week In SEO post to you. Sound ok? My way of saying thanks for coming by and checking out the links and making your way through one very long resource post week after week. In honor of you feel free to leave comments about what you like and dislike about these roundup posts. I’m always listening, but in honor of you I’ll listen a little more this week.

As always there’s more at my del.icio.us profile and just for kicks there’s even a little more at my StumbleUpon profile. Two profiles for the price of none. You can’t beat that. Now on with the show.

One more baseball dedicated edition of This Week In SEO as the World Series is under way. As a Yankee fan living in Colorado I have double the reasons to root against the Red Sox this year. Sorry New England, but you know how it is. I respect your team, but I can’t root for them. Go Rockies!

As always there’s more at my del.icio.us profile, particularly some of the social media and blogging posts I was forced to cut from the links here. If you do visit my profile check out Jakob Neilsen’s Alertbox on passive voice. It goes against common wisdom, but makes a lot of sense. Now on with the show.

Mid week I had planned on dedicating today’s post to Dell customer and technical support for repairing an ill computer faster than expected, but I changed my mind today and will continue with the baseball dedications and specifically dedicate today’s This Week In SEO post to Joe Torre, sadly the now ex manager of the New York Yankees. Never has there been a manager who handled himself with such class, dignity, and honesty as Torre and the franchise has taken a step back today. New York will miss you Joe and most of us think you were treated with less respect than you deserved.

Bear with me as I dedicate another This Week In SEO post to the baseball playoffs. We’re down to four teams and by next week we should know who’ll be playing in the World Series. Hope you don’t mind a little more baseball talk until the series is over a couple of weeks from now. If you do mind, well that’s what you get for visiting a post about SEO written by an avid baseball fan. We seamheads can have a one track mind this time of year.

Plenty of links to get to and a few more at my del.icio.us profile so on with the show.

Last week’s post was dedicated to baseball and this week’s will too. That’s what happens when you use a show about baseball to name a series of posts This Week in SEO. Expect the next few weeks to have the same or similar dedications as we move closer to the fall classic. Last weekend’s close of the regular season was as exciting as it could be and the National League needed one more game than scheduled to determine who was in and out of the post season and it only gets better.

Once again have a look at my del.icio.us profile for some very good posts that didn’t quite make their way here.

Danny Sullivan turned 42 this week, the same age as me I might add, and Google turned 9. Matt provides Google’s horoscope for the coming months based on their September 27th birth date. Any other week either would be enough for this post’s dedication. But not this weekend. This Week In SEO takes its name from the popular Mel Allen show “This Week In Baseball,” and given this is the last weekend of the regular season, baseball gets the dedication. In particular the National League where 15 games over the next three days will determine the October fate of 7 teams.

As always there’s plenty to get to and more at my del.icio.us profile. Now on with the show.

Autumn, OJ, Barry Bonds? Who should we dedicate This Week In SEO to today? How about Google? Seems fitting, especially as their stock price reached a new high earlier today, closing over $560 a share. Seeing your stock multiply more than six fold in two years? Priceless. Literally. And certainly better than dedicating anything to OJ. Guess we’ll have another trial to watch just as the new tv season is getting underway. Must see tv returns. As always plenty of posts to get to and more at my del.icio.us profile. Now on with the show.

Why not dedicate This Week In SEO to someone in the industry who’s given quite a lot to the community and whose posts are often featured here. A few days ago Aaron Wall took off to get married (or to have a real ceremony as I think Aaron already tied the knot) and have a month+ long honeymoon. He may or may not be posting again until he returns in late October. Congrats Aaron. The SEO community will miss you, but we’re also happy for you and we’ll be awaiting your return. Now on with the show.

The beginning of the week marked the unofficial end to summer, but let’s dedicate this week to football as the NFL started its regular season last night. Peyton and the Colts looked very good, but I’m not counting the Saints out. Last night could be foreshadowing of the Super Bowl. Then again so could the Chicago/San Diego game on Sunday. Of course in the NFL any of several teams could end up playing in the big game. Football on Sunday, but Friday is all about This Week In SEO. Plenty of links to get to and as always you can find more via my del.icio.us profile. On with the show.
