Joining Client Side SEM with Scott Smith aka Caveman and Aaron Wall aka SEObook
If you're new here, you may want to learn more about me, introduce yourself or check out my best posts. Thanks for visiting!
I’ve been procrastinating a bit on an official announcement about joining up with Scott and Aaron for a little while now, but am happy to make it official with a blog post (okay, I really just didn’t want to explain a thousand times at pubcon). Scott and Aaron are two of the sharpest SEO/ SEM/ Internet guys I know, and I’m really humbled to be partnering up with them. I’ve been working with Scott and Aaron on several projects over the last five or six months, and our skillsets definitely complement one another nicely. I must say, it’s definitely nice to have sharp people to bounce ideas off of. I’m looking forward to a healthy mix of working on our own sites, and doing a very limited set of client work (site audits, consulting, and the like). More on Client Side Search Engine Marketing.
More on Scott and Aaron:
Aaron Wall
Aaron Wall is an aggressive and creative viral marketer who thinks of the Web in terms of how ideas spread. He is frequently acknowledged as one of the leading figures in Search Engine Marketing and SEO today.
Aaron literally wrote the book on search engine optimization — SEO Book — quite possibly the most authoritative work on SEO strategies and practices currently available. SEO Book can regularly be found at the top of search engine listings for a search on “seo book.”
Aaron also blogs from SEOBook.com, where he reviews search engine strategies, offers some great SEO tools, comments on industry trends, and interviews leaders in the field of search marketing.
Additionally, Aaron is a co-owner of Threadwatch.org, the SEO community’s “water cooler” and free-wheeling discussion board, where just about anything search-related can and does get discussed by search marketing insiders.
Scott Smith
Scott Smith brings nearly 30 years of marketing, advertising, start-up, Internet, and SEO/SEM experience to the table.
Scott is the founder of a privately held Internet marketing company specializing in online advertising, marketing, and lead generation.
He has deep knowledge of Web marketing and search engine algorithms, and serves as moderator of the Search Engine Promotion & Marketing Forum at Webmaster World, the leading site on the Internet for Webmasters and independent Web professionals, where he is better know by his nickname, “caveman.”
Prior to becoming involved with Internet marketing, Scott held senior marketing and management positions at several ad agencies in New York, where he worked with major U.S. and global clients including Coca-Cola, Citibank, Kraft General Foods, Nabisco and Gilllette.

[...] Last Word of SEM Experts’ (blogs) I Admire Dave Naylor (Daven) says “We all know Google doesn’t know how to count” and he’s right, Debra Mastaler wants Google to use its official communication channel and we can understand her, Todd Malicoat: ”I’m proud to work with Aaron Wall and Scott Smith“. Mazal Tov, Todd. We’re proud of you too. Jim Boykin talks about his internet marketing ninjas training program and I’m a little bit sad of the fact that everyhing turns to be commercial at the end (if not in the middle of the way). I would surely miss the free SEO tools of We Build Pages. Rand Fishkin offers SEOmoz’s website stats for 2007 and I must say that SEO-beginners can learn alot of what interesting factors should be looked at in a website stat from scanning SEOmoz stat’s titles plus I wonder if the the list of SEOmoz’s top referring domains is the real one… Michael Gray mentions that long URLs are problematic for social media and I want to thank him ’cause I didn’t know 225 is the limit number I should keep in mind. Aaron Wall writes about optimizing automated communication strategies and I get to recall once again why the seo-book is one book I can read again and again and again. Aaron writes so well and with so much honesty you can’t do anything but falling in love with him one more time. [...]
