On Becoming an SEOmoz Associate

Last week was a really, truly exciting week for me and SEOgadget and I just wanted to share some news that I’m personally delighted about. I will be working with SEOmoz as an Associate for the forseeable future. I’m just waiting for my “special badge” to get updated any day now.

Joining was not a difficult decision. The SEOmoz Team are a wildly talented bunch of people who have at some point likely influenced the way you’re doing SEO today. They certainly have in my case and much of the work I do today relies on Linkscape, Open Site Exploer or just general SEO knowledge I’ve picked up from the many blog posts published on their site over the years. I couldn’t imagine a more exciting opportunity in my professional life than being closer to that team, and my friends at Distilled.

So in the near future I’ll be finding my feet answering pro member Q+A’s and generally helping out with feedback as and when it’s required. I’ll be blogging regularly there too so, I’d love to hear suggestions in the comments or via my contact form on any requests for posts you’d like to see.

SEOgadget is growing and, thanks to a few great new clients coming on board in the last few weeks, I’m hoping that announcing good news like this becomes a more regular feature on the blog. Thank you to all of the people who tweet, sphinn and support SEOgadget – without much of that support I don’t think any of this would be happening!
