Search Engine Blogs – The Great List of Search News Bloggers
One aspect of keeping up an updated Search Engine News site is the constant monitoring of RSS feeds, news stories, group emails, and, of course, blogs. Tonight I was skimming over Aaron Wall’s (a frequent contributor to Search Engine Journal) blog, SEOBook.com.
Aaron recently updated his working list of Search Engine Blogs and I thought it that publishing the list on Search Engine Journal would be a great tribute to Aaron’s hard work, and the hard work of all of the bloggers out there who are spreading the ever-changing news of the search engine industry.
Here is Aaron’s list of most of the SEO Blogs and Search Engine Blogs on the Internet. If you know of an SEO Blog or Search Engine Blog that Aaron is missing from this list, just add it as a comment below.
Currently my list of SEO Blogs is only in English due to my lack of fluidity (is that a word) in other languages.
