Each High School has different types of people playing different roles..Which role do you play? You might not wanna skip this one..you’re probably one of those listed. He’s got you sized. *-)

Didn’t Shana do a post nearly identical to this one? Or maybe that was about Sphinn rather than SEO

Um, if she did I haven’t read it (honest teach, this is all my own work) but I’ll have a look just in case.

This is the only time in my life where it’s been flattering to be referred to as a cheerleader.

Holy crap you’re right Kalena, here it is from last December http://sphinn.com/story/17578 although Shana’s post deals in much more general terms about the high school-ish nature of the community, rather than pointing towards specific SEO personalities.Can I get away with the "Great minds think alike" defence or do I get detention?  ;-)

Sorry Ken, didn’t mean to imply you were duping - just that the angle sounded familiar. It’s all good!

np Kalena, I just knocked this post together this afternoon ’coz I thought it would be a funny, throw away thing to put up while I add the finishing touches to a series of posts I’m working on.  Mostly inspired by the "Cool Hippy Chick" who befriended me in the lunchroom.I never expected to get this big a reaction to it.  I think I’ve had about 4 times more visits today than I’ve had in the whole month since I started my blog.  And I wasn’t even trying to create linkbait.

@Kalena - It was similar to this one, but related to Social Media being a lot like high school.  No worries.... this was a great post too.  :)

@KenJones - This was a great post too.  We should just chalk it up to great minds think a like.  :))

Thanks Shana.  I guess it strikes a chord with so many people because the community is so much like a high school :-)

@ Ken - glad you got some traffic. I’m betting it was your title - nice link bait :-)

I’ve just updated the post so that it’s easier to tell who’s who among the high schoolers and added in a couple of groups that people thought were missing.  Hope you all still like it :-)
