Webmasters are taking control of their sites, building some awesome original content, and ensuring that content can be found by letting users )and bots( know about it.

I mean, sure in that case a lot of paid tools like Omniture , Webtrends etc.

Posted by robmillard RegEx is not necessarily as complicated as it first seems. What looks like an assorted mess of random characters can be over facing, but in reality it only takes a little reading to be able to use some basic Regular Expressions in your day to day work. For example, you could be using the filter box at the bottom of your Google Analytics keyword report to find keywords containing your brand, such as Distilled .

Posted by Aaron Wheeler Article marketing is mostly a scam. Well, wait... some types of article marketing are really scammy. Guest blogging, legitimate article sharing, and similar tactics are great and sustainable linkbuilding practices, but making up terrible article content and passing it off as something people should read or link to is both bad for users and bad for long-term SEO. This week,

I've written a few keyword research posts here on SEOmoz and that's because I believe it to be the blueprint of any successful SEO campaign.

Posted by Dr. Pete Theres a reason people balk at content marketing its hard. Not only do we have to be marketers, but now were supposed to be subject-matter experts, writers, and designers? Sure, we can hire it out, and sometimes we should, but theres something to be said for crafting a piece of content entirely on your own. Its not just ego its your vision and only you really understand what you want in the finished product. For me,

Posted by randfish As you may have seen, Linkscape has just updated with a brand new index crawled primarily in early August. This means there's new data in the web app, in Open Site Explorer , the Link Intersect too l and the mozBar )note: the new Firefox 6 caused a bunch of issues w/ our toolbar displays, so it will be another week or so before it's re-compatible with this version(. In Linkscape's previous index , we focused a bit more on crawling large, powerful,

Posted by randfish I recently spent a few days in New York, Philadelphia and New Jersey, and got to meet with great friends at consulting firms. One conversation in particular stuck with me regarding the hardest project they'd worked on in the last few years. It got me thinking that I should share a few of my most challenging SEO projects, and see if the community had stories they could share, too. I learned a lot in my short chat on the subject,

Posted by MikeCP On August 12, Google announced that their high-quality sites algorithm, otherwise known as "Panda", had been rolled out for all languages save for Korean, Chinese, and Japanese . The change is said to impact 6-9% of users' queries, down from the 12% seen in the initial Panda update back in February. Though the official announcement post doesn't make mention of this update's effect on English queries,

Posted by AndrewDumont Howdy, SEOmoz family! I'm Andrew , the new Business Development Director over at SEOmoz, and this is my first post on the blog. Great relationships are all about kicking things off on the right foot... or at least that's what I hear. That in mind, SEOmoz PRO members, we've got a nice little treat for you.

Posted by Aaron Wheeler Statistics can be very powerful tools for SEOs, but it can be hard to extract the right information from them. People understandably make a lot of mistakes in the process of taking raw data and turning it into actionable numbers. If you know what potential mistakes can be made along the way, you're less likely to make them yourself - so listen up! Will Critchlow, the co-founder and chief strategist at Distilled ,

Posted by Lindsay As you've probably learned, you can't always rely on search engine spiders to do an effective job when they visit and index your website. Left to their own devices bots can generate duplicate content, perceive important pages as junk, index content that shouldnt serve as a user entry point, and many other issues. There are a number of tools at our disposal that allow us to make the most of bot activity on a website such as the meta robots tag, robots.txt,

Posted by Cyrus Shepard Was SEOmoz affected by Googles Panda Updates? It depends how you look at it. Since the first update hit in February of 2011, organic search traffic to SEOmoz has increased by 49%. To be fair, the dates that Panda hit dont match up to periods when we saw traffic gains. In this time period weve rolled out great content , popular blog posts , introduced new tools and made several SEO improvements. You could say were good at not getting hit by Panda.
