Halfway through, she interrupted, telling me that the mini lesson was turning her on. Hope for our inner geeks yet!

I was at dinner with my girlfriend last week, and after the meal, I gave her a little napkin-scribbling semantic markup primer. Halfway through, she interrupted, telling me that the mini lesson was turning her on.

Hope for our inner geeks yet!

I enjoyed this post Steve – it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Yeah a lot of the seo talk now is about social media, but with good reason. It can be a great way to network and ultimately attract new readers and links. I tend to focus on the technical side of site development and the seo aspects of it. keyword research Search friendly code Info architecture focusing on keyword themes Finding potential problems and fixing them I think if you look there are people talking about the technical aspects of seo. The cutting edge stuff is mostly talked about on the blackhat side of things. Even if that's not within your ethics you can still learn a lot from the dark side. A few black/grey hat blogs I like are: <a href="http://www.bluehatseo.com/" rel="nofollow">Bluehat SEO</a> and <a href="http://www.slightlyshadyseo.com" rel="nofollow">Slightly Shady SEO</a> Eli hasn't been updating Bluehat a lot lately, but there's plenty there to keep you busy until he does. Slightly Shady is updated much more often. If you start there and just start clicking on the names of people who comment you'll find a wealth of technical seo information.

I think if you look there are people talking about the technical aspects of seo. The cutting edge stuff is mostly talked about on the blackhat side of things.

Even if that’s not within your ethics you can still learn a lot from the dark side.

Bluehat SEO and Slightly Shady SEO

Eli hasn’t been updating Bluehat a lot lately, but there’s plenty there to keep you busy until he does.

Slightly Shady is updated much more often.

If you start there and just start clicking on the names of people who comment you’ll find a wealth of technical seo information.

I'm a geek, and I do code (and pages, and pages' code). I want to push basic SEO techniques so my team will put them into practice. No way to find that online. Much information on general mumbo jumbo way too far from the code. Ohh groovy I can send my site to social sites and wish to be the next facebook. But that's not what I do, it's another departement here that would do that. For example, this site here uses : Geeks Are Still Relevant In Modern SEO | TheVanBlog | Van SEO Design Ok check, I use the same structure. huh? Description = first 156 characters of your post O.o It seams people still think that websites are "written" and static while everything is in a database somewhere. When I pull it out to generate a page, how do I proceed with SEO techniques. And how will those affect the rest of my team (technical or not). Any hints on where to find "real geek code stuff" ? Thanks! (added your site in my bookmarks...) Hi :)
