Not counting seomoz or Distilled, what are your top3 SEO blogs you wouldchoose to read if you had a hard limit of 3 total?

Recently on Q&A, Petra weighed in with a link tool site that had completely missed my radar. My problem is lack of time. I don't have enough of it to readthe2 dozen+ SEO blogscurrently in my RSS feed I would like to tobe able to read to stay current. So I end up only reading at the moz.
I'm hoping the collective wisdom of the SEOmoz crowd will shine forthand set me on the road of pursuit of new knowledge with the best of the best blogs

SearchCap- As Kristy said, the digest version.
SEO by the Sea- Bill stays on top of patents, which helps future-proof your sites.
SEO Book- Aaron stays on top of SEO goings-on.

Hey Cowboy -
Some of my favs include:
http://www.johnon.com/ - John Andrews' Competitive Webmastering & SEO
http://www.seobythesea.com/ - Bill Slawski's SEO by the Sea
http://www.conversationmarketing.com - Ian Lurie's Conversation Marketing
-
Apart from already mentioned, I like http://www.seroundtable.com/:
- They provide really up-to-date information.
- They have mobile version. I read them mostly on my BlackBerry while standing in queue, waiting on something, on the lift etc.
- The provide a lot of links for deeper discovering.
- Their articles are useful.
-
I'm a huge fan of SearchCap. I take 15-30 minutea each day and review it. Typically keeps me up to date on anyything happening in the industry.
-
Searchcap is what you're looking for - feed version gives me a daily update of stuff to read: http://searchengineland.com/feeds
-
There is a TON of stuff there - agreed. I tend to rely on their emails for the "digest" version. Able to skim titles/topics and the best content is pushed out there.

Back in August 2010 Rand listed his top 10 which can be found at:-
http://www.seomoz.org/blog/best-seo-blogs-top-10-sources-to-stay-uptodate
As well as listing them he also explained why he reads them.
I bookmarked his post (which I refer regularly to) so I didn't need to bookmark all of his recommendations.
-
Thanks Thomas. I'll give two of them a shot (already follow Pete who's quite funny)
-
To be honest, I only read SEOmoz regularly. Besides that, my reading effort is spread out wide and primarily influenced by twitter. So instead of following blogs, I prefer following Twitter people - especially those who don't just link to their own blog. My top 3 there would be:
@crazyegg
@KISSinsights
@dr_pete

I've recently discovered: http://explicitly.me/ and love it.
-
searchengineland.com is one of my favourites, too. But I always read the http://searchengineland.com/searchcap-the-day-in-search-date.... there I have kind of a "best of" and scan trought the titles and select then the post I read.
http://www.searchenginejournal.com/
http://www.ericward.com/ - I like his way of thinking regarding link building (but this is not in the top3 (seomoz of course, too).

Sorry for the Distilled omission mate. I fixed it in edit. Oh! forgot to say welcome to the States!
-
Thanks Tom. The problem I have with SearchEngineland is that there's too much info. I find that I tend to move on without reading if I'm short time. Now a "Readers Digest" of SEL would be great!

Tough question! Ignoring both seomoz and distilled I'd probably go for:

Blog Post Relevance vs Traffic
Hello Moz community, I have a website (lets say that I am selling tshirts), and want to create a blog (www.website.com/blog). With that blog, I would like to post about random topics including travel, leisure, events, new products etc. I want to do this for 1. to get affiliate commissions, 2. to increase web traffic, 3. to potentially increase my domain authority. I would like to know if this blog with random posts would negatively affect my website ranking and keyword ranking (for t-shirts), as it is not relevant to the products that I am selling (and the keywords that I am ranking for). As Google currently understands that my website is a webstore selling t-shirts (and I am ranking for the tshirt keywords), but the algorithm get confused if I start posting about travel and random topics? Your help greatly appreciated in the matter.

SEO Ads On Third Party Job Sites?
Hello all, I seriously doubt I will get a reply to this as I'm guessing no one has experience with it. if you do though then I would appreciate any information either via comment or PM. Basically, I need to know how I can improve the rankings of job posts within the third party sites. An example would be totaljobs.com, how can I improve the rankings of advertisements that are posted there or is it simply ranked by date and location?. When I had my eBay business, I did a lot of research on eBay SEO and discovered some important factors for ranking within the eBay website. I'm basically wanting to do the same here on job board websites for job ads posted to them. Their algorithms won't be as advanced as Google etc so I'm guessing if they do they will be open for higher keyword density levels and that kind of thing.. I've googled it quite a bit and can't find any information at all on it. Thanks.

SEOMOZ Glossary
Does SEOmoz have a glossary of terms. I answer many questions in Q&A and many people don't know what things stand for. "Uuhhhhh what's GWT?" "UUUUUhhh who's Matt Cutts?" "DDuuuhhhhh What GA?" I think it would be good to have a Glossary. SEObook has one, but I don't want to link from this forum to SeoBook. I want to keep it all in the Moz family of subscribers. (DDuurrrr, what's a SERP?)

What SEO conferences do you recommend?
I need your recommendations for which SEO conference I should attend to during 2011-2012. I've been working with SEO since 2002 so I'm not a beginner. I want the good stuff! 🙂 However I havn't been to that many conferences before, only PubCon Las Vegas several times. I would therefore appreciate some help from you guys who have tried them all (or at least several of them) 🙂 Thank's a lot!
