For the first time since launch, I’ve been receiving some negative feedback on certain blog entries, not just from newcomers to the site, but from long-time readers and respected search industry folks. Since the primary purpose of this blog is to provide a hub of information, sharing, newsΒ and, on occassion, humor for the SEO community, I thought it wise to ask for an entire thread devoted to:
- Thoughts on what SEOmoz is missing or what you’d like to see
- Constructive criticism for myself and the other writers
- Straight negative feedback with no punches pulled
In the comments here, feel free to be harsh, honest and unabashed. A good ranting (in the right place) never hurt anyone.
For the writers at the blog (myself included), I’d ask you not to take offense at anything you see below or feel compelled to defend or respond (unless it’s something you want clarified or are asking for help with, examples, etc.). As always, thanks for the feedback – we take it to heart and it really does make the blog a better place.
UPDATE: One thing we have done, by popular request, is remove the advertising on SEOmoz. We’llΒ think aboutΒ monetization in the future.
