Special Thanks to Everyone Whose Helped Me
If you’re looking for someone to hire to do SEO/SEM or related work - I have a different list of trusted providers here
Pretty much all the people below rock. This used to be a blogroll, but I figured it would probably be nicer to say a few words about each of these folks
Mike Papageorge is a top notch designer that I am very lucky to have found through the reference of another friend. His development skills never cease to amaze me. I’m almost reluctant to link to him, because I don’t want other people to try to hire him while he could be helping me:)
Andy is one of very few folks who I bounce ideas off of on nearly a daily basis. He’s got a knack for no nonsense constructive criticism, and is one of the best in the business at diagnosing and prognosticating search engine algorithm changes.
This is my brother. He’s a pretty sharp cat that does mobile software development.
If it wasn’t for WMW, I would have no hopes of being where I am today. Brett is the godfather of this amazing community.
Chris is another extremely sharp SEO - now working for Avenue A/ Razorfish.
Danny has given me the incredible opportunity to contribute as a speaker at Search Engine Strategies. He is among the wisest, well respected folks in search engine marketing, and for good reasons. His contributions over his ten year plus tenure are extraordinary, and he still has an incredible passion for search.
Dean was one of the first folks I really looked up to at webmasterworld, and has contributed to the community extensively with his comprehension of complex search technology.
Greg is a long time conference buddy that knows SEO inside and out.
Michael is one of my favorite SEO bloggers, that always has something interesting to say, and is one of few SEO’s with no real agenda for blogging great info.
is a standup guy, and longstanding member of IM-NY.
aka aussiewebmaster has paid for more meals than any SEO on the planet I think
is the man at social media and SEO. His first client was a recording studio that he got so much web traffic that they refused to keep their phone number on their website.
- Both Greg Hartnett and Brian Prince are as real as the come. Just buy the listing
Jake is probably the best damn poker player in the world.
Jeremy is a real good guy, and an excellent web developer.
Jim is probably the king of link development, and taught me a ton in my time at Webuildpages.
Josh is a great web designer/ developer who is constantly learning new techniques.
An outstanding SEO and good friend who I’m trying constantly to get to help me on projects — and a standup guy both personally and professionally.
Justin is great at Mod-rewrite, and a fine web developer.
Nick is the king of linkbaiting - no one can stir up controversy like this man.
Todd is one of few people I would consider a mentor in the arts of SEO.
Avenue A is damn lucky to have picked Mr. Stahlman - An top notch SEO and great friend to have.
The man, the myth, the legend - Just buy the damn book.
Steve is an amazing flash designer with artistic skills that should have him working on Madison avenue.
Greg Boser is a no-nonsense SEO who I would classify as my other mentor along with Oilman - they do SEOrockstars on Webmasterradio, and if you don’t listen, you definitely should. They’re dropping gold on there.
I met George at my very first conference in Orlando, and have enjoyed bitching with him since then about plenty of industry BS. If you can manage to hire him, he’s a good guy to have on your side
