David,
Volume 1 of the set is from 2008, Volume 2 is from 2009. As for what sessions are out of date, I'm not exactly sure as it's been about 8 months since I've personally watched them. Many of the sessions are on advanced theories and actions which makes them not go out of date. I know some of the PPC sessions are out of date since many of the tools have changed.
We do have the videos from our 2010 conference and we are not sure what we will be doing with those yet. They will either be placed on the website for streaming with purchase or go out with our 2011 conference which will be in July, stay turned for that.

Thank Casey, Roger, Aaron for the reply!
I think that SEOmoz put together the training on the DVD, so I can watch them all in one place instead looking around the web and SEOmoz site to find them, it will not only save me lot of time, but also it can prevent me from missing some important training. That is very good.
Thanks Roger and Aaron to point out the "date-ish" side of DVD, previously I only thought about the overlap with the book "art of seo". now I realize this "date-ish" is not avoidable, because it is in a rapid changing industry.
I have the following questions to Casey and other Seomoz::
1. when were these DVD produced?
2. Can you list the session(concept) which are outdated? I think this is most important, so we can avoid the learn-unlearn process. In my personal opinion, if 90% of the content is not out-dated, it is worth to buy. But it is very important to point out which sessions are out-dated.
3. Are you working on the new version of the DVD? if I bought the existing one, can I get some discount on the new one?
If anyone else has purchased these, please provide your feedback, I'd love to have a second opinion.
Thanks

Hi Guys,
I've read both the Art Of SEO and watched both series and I would that there is some overlap but the stuff in the DVDs is more advanced than what you find in the book. Some of the sessions on the DVD are outdated but many of them still have actionable items in them that you can benefit from. Plus about 2 weeks ago we lowered the price so it's worth the pickup in my mind. You can see the back cover below in my links:

Good question!! I have looked at that before and second Aaron's concern.
Has anyone else purchased these? I'd love to hear your feedback?
SEOmoz, are these still up to date-ish?

I was considering giving them a shot as well... I am a bit hesitant to invest in a static resource when SEOmoz has such a great, constantly evolving "database" of knowledge right on the site. The problem with SEO books and videos is they are time sensitive in a very fluid industry. I'll probably still give them a go (because I love SEOmoz) but I think staying up to date with all of the content on here is a sufficient way to stay informed. Hope this helps!

Which SEO tactic should I concentrate on first?
Hi All, I'm a freelancer specialising in marketing and advertising for small businesses Creative Express and I was wondering what I should concentrate on first in terms of SEO? I know that targeting the right keywords are important, as are backlinks, but also TOS etc. I haven't built up much of any, but the time has come to put in significant effort in SEO. Is there something that I should be putting the most effort in to? Is there a list somewhere that shows priorities? Thanks in advance, Dan

Video Placement
HI all- I recently finished our first product video, about a candy called Sixlets. It's meant to be an educational video (as compared to linkbait) but of course I would love to get to seo benefit out of it. I am planning on putting the video on the individual product pages for each color sixlet to make sure people get the information they need. I am also planning on putting it on a page I will create that will house all of our videos. When I put together the video sitemap (via Wistia), I was really thinking of only including the video page, not the product pages, as as not to appear to be spammy. Does this make sense or am I going about this all wrong. Just want to make sure, as I am new to video. Thanks, Ken

Local SEO Issue: Google Places Listing on Page 8
Hello, I'm having an issue with a client's Google Places listing. It's showing on page 8 for one of the main keyword terms but their main site is on page 1. Having looked into competitors' places listings ranking above, I've ruled out the following; lack of citations inconsistent citations incomplete profile incorrect category listing details not matching places landing page incorrect location and any form of keyword stuffing Other places listings ranking above have fewer citations, incomplete profiles, details inconsistent with their main site, one is no longer trading as a business and one has no website! In the past, our client had had two listings simultaneously but we addressed this waaaay back. Is it possible we could still be getting punished? I'm at a bit of a loss otherwise. Any thoughts would be hugely appreciated. Thankyou!

Hosting All Content Images On Flickr For Blog - What are SEO implications?
Hi, I am starting a travel blog and thought of the idea of hosting all the content images over at Flickr and just calling them into my blog content when needed. Benefits: push traffic over to my Flickr account pull traffic from Flickr to my blog However, I was just wondering about any SEO implications of having 3-4 links per post pointing to Flickr. Is this spammy? Will I lose my juice? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
