How cool is this Q&A Forum!
-
I love it, it's brilliant. You get to peruse through the questions to see real world examples of SEO issues, and help with things you do know the answers to, as well as learn loads from seeing others answers on things you don't know the answers to... I'm getting addicted to coming on here!
The instant-ness of it all makes it much better than any other SEO forum out there in my opinion.
-
I've been a pro member for about 6 months and I've only just discovered Q&A! I must have seen it before - just didn't register. Looking forward to using this forum a lot in the next few months.
-
I just signed a pro account in SEO Moz, but for this first week ive been activily using the Tools of SEO Moz and visisiting the Forum. The funny part is that i never tought the most helpfull part of being pro would be the Fórum.
Like someone said before, the barrier entry is, indeed, a great way to keep only good quality posts here. Compared to other fórums I used to read (and almost never wanted to comment on) this one is heaven.
-
Hello Rand! Thanks for the new format. I think that the New Q&A is really going to take off. I am looking forward to it.
Nice job to all who were involved.
-
In that case I just went and put a bit of much needed punctuation into the OP in case it's in the screenshot... when I read it back I nearly ran out of breath!
Looking forward to further forum evolution
-
Hi Doc, Thanks! I am enjoying the new format of Q&A.
Look forward to reading more of your work.
-
It's funny - I'm presenting today to the entire staff at SEOmoz for our quarterly "all hands" meeting, and a screenshot of this thread is exactly what I needed
The barrier to entry thing is interesting - at first we worried it would mean that participation might not be as heavy as others, but the barrier to entry clearly carried value. Will make sure to give props to the team members who worked on this.
And just FYI - we plan lots more improvements in the future, so if you've got suggestions, don't hesitate to make 'em!
EGOL - I've been trying to lure you to Moz for years. Who knew this is all it took
-
I've been so buried in Private Q&A, I didn't realize you'd resurfaced over here. Long time, no see
-
Same. It's a great way to stay sharp on certain areas of SEO that you might not deal with on a daily basis. I also like the Q and A section because it's a good way to begin networking with some other webmasters and SEO people.
-
I think that this will strengthen as we get to know and respect one another.
-
It's all so practical too. I would bet that anyone who spent an hour or two each day in here just reading through the questions would make a great SEO after a year
-
I hear you... have been through the same and this feels like an oasis.
-
I agree... "Barrier to entry" was smart smart move. 500 mozpoints and paying members are serious people who don't want a forum full of noise.
The spammers and bottomfeeder SEOs have burned me out on another forum where I have posted for a long time.
-
This is a smart move by SEOMoz, this forum will take over dwindling SEO forums we used to visit which are now full of spammers and ridiculous content. Barrier to entry is the key to quality here. Well done.
-
Steve, I agree. This is fantastic! I am on this daily; not only to ask questions and provide feedback to others, but to see issus what other SEOers are facing.
-
Totally agree. I love it because it helps prepare me for questions that I haven't been asked yet. It's a great way to stay on your toes and continue to learn and grow in the space. SEOmoz is really cementing itself as one of the best SEO resources available and certainly with the best community.
-
I agree. This is a good format. I started participating a few days ago and enjoy it.
Looking forward to more.

What is a good forum or resource to contact fellow SEO professionals for SEO partnership opportunities i.e. link trades?
While Moz is an excellent resource, i get the impression that it is for community-based SEO questions that can serve as a knowledge database. I am looking for a forum or resource where I can contact other SEO workers to explore link exchange opportunities. For example, i want to reach out to those who do SEO for audio/visual, technology, and event-planning companies so i can offer them links in exchange for some recommended links to my site. Before anyone dogs on link trading as being spammy and not best practice, it would only be done in a useful, relevant, and non-spammy fashion with other high authority sites. Thanks! Ryan

Wordpress, Programming Forums?
Are there any Wordpress forums where amateurs can ask questions about programming. My intent it to better understand the complexity of certain tasks and what would be a reasonable amount of time to complete them so my developer does not rip me off by billing me ten hours for a task that takes them ten minutes. Thanks,

What platform is Moz using for this forum?
Just wondering if Moz can share which platform they're using for this forum? I really enjoy using it and would love to build something similar on our company's website, since it would definitely help our community initiatives and SEO. Cheers!

What are the most effective SEO methods for online communities and forums?
My company has a global online community of over 350,000+ members. We allow users to submit articles revolving around the scrum and agile framework. Sometimes the submissions become overwhelming and I am curious if there is anyone out there who may have experience with this same scenario. I don't want to place meta data on every single article that comes in, because I don't have the resources nor time to optimize each and every article. Does anyone have techniques or suggestions in regards to either leaving the meta data untouched or customizing each individual piece? Any thoughts or ideas will be extremely helpful. Thanks

Anyone else want to add a webmaster tools category to Q&A?
This could be all inclusive of both Google and Bing (a la webmaster tools), or, add more specificity with two additional categories:

"Google Webmaster Tools"
"Bing Webmaster Tools" (It was suggested I post this on the forum and see if anyone else would upvote this.) Thanks! D7s6zJm0 -
What forums do you recommend for?
Hi, What forums would you recommend I join if I specialise in internet marketing? I am looking at Warrior, DigitalPoint and UK Business Forums but I really can't see me using all 3 daily. I am based in the UK, so I want something that going to give me good answers from members who actually work in or have clients in the UK? Thanks

Universal Local Results & Venice Update - What's what?
There is some buzz in the community regarding the Venice Update of the Google Algorithm. Google has said the following about this: "Improvements to ranking for local search results. [launch codename “Venice”] This improvement improves the triggering of Local Universal results by relying more on the ranking of our main search results as a signal."
SEO Learn Center | | DeptAgency
source:http://insidesearch.blogspot.com/2012/02/search-quality-highlights-40-changes.html A lot of Blog posts refer to this update and discuss the effect of the location of the googler on the ranking of "standard/traditional results". My question is: Does the term 'Local Universal Results' include "standard/traditional" results or is it used by Google to refer to 'Google Places' Results in the standard SERP? So, are the results that are impacted by Venice recognizable as 'Local Results' (by the teardrop and google Maps and so on), or does it influence 'standard/traditiona results' as well, other than simply pushing them down by inserting Google Places results in the SERP? Thanks a lot! 1WWBV.jpg0
