Link schemes, blatant self promotion and a lack of genuine interest in the topics discussed.

Not the kind of content I’d expect on SEJ or to be good for the industry.

One great thing about an opinion piece? Others can weigh in and leave comments that encourage conversation, and we can all grow from it if we choose.Thanks for leaving your thoughts here Danny. It’s good to see how you view Google’s industirial rise and I appreciate you taking the time to disagree in a way that we can understand.

@Harith - did you read beyond the part you copied and pasted? I openly researched it, wrote this as an opinionated piece and thought that was clear. If it wasn’t, I apologize. I’m sorry it wasn’t up to your standards though and certainly appreciate you sharing your view.

Thanks for the Sphinn, Ben. Now... How long until this is desphunn? I’ll start the countdown...

@pageoneresults -- I swear I didn’t vote your comment down... Swear it... Let’s agree to disagree, okay? :)

@Naoise grep makes things super easy, but many (sadly) aren’t running *nix servers. I wouldn’t classify them as SEOs though, since anyone worth their weight in salt loves them some Apache... :)

Thanks for the submission and comment! Log files have been a big part of my career and I’m often surprised just how many haven’t become acquainted with them. Hopefully this post is encouraging enough to get some more people on board.

I can’t vote up Michael’s comment anymore than I have. So - you should.

That’s true... For some, perception is reality. Great article here though Tony. Good to see you blogging again too bud.

Excellent example of the SEO/SEM community coming together to do something constructive for a change. Love it.

Not worthy of Sphinn love really. I don’t have enough friends to make this go hot anyway. It’s just another op/ed piece from a resident Google hater.

Sphunn for creative use of Awesomization in a title.

Great contribution to those in the industry here from Ann. I’ve been using a few of these, but some presented will definitely be helpful.

I love that we’re finally seeing some valuable discussions here that blend online rep management with the various forms of Internet marketing out there. Excellet article and certainly worth a read for those in the SEO and SMM space.

@iBrian - Sorry, not an ad. Hence the lack of links to them in all cases except for spam bots to eat up their email addresses. Tough to discuss the company and raise awareness without using their name, which double as their URL.Sorry.

Right? I’m not even an SMM. Thanks for the submit Brent.

Sorry for outing your love for Quantcast Rae, but these reports simply kick ass. We’ve begun showing clients the benefit and they’re all over it.

I wish there was more room in the description of the topic here, but I hope what’s there is enough to let Sphinn users see the point of this. I’m excited to be seeing a movement like this, particularly because I’ve seen a lot of good blogs (and bloggers) ruined by paid links and product pushes. This won’t stop that, but it introduces an entirely different approach.The fact that bloggers aren’t required to link to the merchant’s sites is pretty cool. It puts the focus back on the product and benefits than it does the manipulation of search.

Kudos to Brent for taking a situation, making the most of it - and truly tapping the power of social media to make the most of it. Excellent case study, excellent evening.

Commented on the post, but it’s worth repeating here as well. Our independant user studies have shown that media rich SERPs really break up the user’s train of thought. Many times the organic listings directly beneath the media receive a higher clickthrouhh. So yeah... These changes are big for search marketers :)

I was wondering if this was entirely new, or something previously tested. I had not caught Mark Robertson’s post from a few weeks ago - but the timing seems to match what I’d expect and have seen of late.Most of the recent SERP chages I’m seeing from Google take place on a Friday evening, btween midnight EST and about 4AM. At least, thats when I’m hearing them all be noticed.This push seems more consistent. I’ve seen the double results more and more since my post went live - so perhaps @videomoyo is correct -- the tests have been gaining traction.

The productivity increase is what it’s all about. But somedays I find the connectivity to be essential. Outside of a work setting, Twitter has helped to strengthen connections with folks I wouldn’t otherwise think I had a lot in common with.
