I owe a big one to Allan Dick, who bought dinner tonight for myself, Danny Sullivan, Ammon Johns, Chris Sherman and about a dozen other SESers here in London. Unbelievably, I still have not slept since Sunday night, but managed to truly enjoy the wine, crab cakes and top-notch beef and Guiness pie.
In return, I thought I’d take a quick dive over to Alan’s site – a veritable haven for those in the home maintenance and upgrading corridor of life, Vintage Tub & Bath has been around for many years, but really turned into a multi-million dollar business with the help Allan received from some of his first SES conferences. They’ve got some nifty stuff, actually:
- This modern sink is, IMO, wicked cool
- It’s a tad offbeat, but these brass shower faucets can look darn cool in the right setting
- Also, it appears Allan has a blog at Blogspot (which I can’t understand for the life of me – he must know those links to his blog aren’t helping Vintage, right?)
And yes, no need to point out the obvious here – I’m giving Allan a bit of link love in exchange for a meal, so Aaron, Adam, if you guys feel the need, go ahead and yoink the link value from this post. I won’t hold it against you (although it might be good to remember he bought you dinner, too) 😉
How about it SEOmozers? Any great suggestions for the Vintage site? He’s got good rankings, but I suspect there is much, much more that could be done on that site with regards to user experience, search targeting and information scent.
p.s. I’m praying I can get some sleep tonight – it’s 2am already and I still feel like I’m lost in that dreamworld of a waking coma… Did anyone see Al Pacino in Insomnia?
