Hi Aaron, I'm Raja Sekharan. I am a Computer Engineering student in India. Apart from academics, I create membership sites on various creative education topics. I author a blog on outsourcing. In my freetime, I develop extensions for drupal and firefox.
Apparently you're in wikipedia ;) WOW!
Hi Raja
I think Drupal and Firefox are both awesome projects to be building...both growing like weeds.
Honestly it is not that hard to get in Wikipedia. You only need a couple press mentions then be critical of the Wikipedia and they list you. ;)
Hi Aaron,
I'm Kristy. A single mom, who has a lil ole website where I sell macrame hemp jewelry.
Been a reader for a short while, and really enjoy your blog!
Hi Kristy.
Thanks for reading the site and saying hi. :)
Hi Aaron, I am Alfredo, a Filipino, working as an SEO Specialist for Promotional Products Company at night and a Web Designer for an Australian Client by day. I work 13 hours a day and I maintain several personal websites on various topics. Hope to see you in person on the next SEMCon :)
Hi Alfredo

Hi Aaron
I'm Matthew from Wakefield, West Yorkshire, UK. I run a double glazing window manufacturing company with around 120 staff.
I'm trying to bring our company into the 21st Century, and ensure our company's presense online is as strong as it can be.
I always read your posts for ideas and advice.
Thanks

I think I remember a cat video from chatting in the past. Thanks for reading and saying hi Matthew.
Hey Aaron,
I'm Satish, 24 years old and i live near Amsterdam. I met Mike Dammann in Amsterdam who was doing SEO a few years ago, he told me what SEO was and kinda got my attention.
Do you know him? He now lives in Costa Rica as far is i know. Selling houses, since anyone there can sell houses without papers (excluding paper money).
Anyway; I have my own IT business, doing SEO, SEA and Webdesign, I also work for a cool company that advertises alot on the internet and i'm kinda the entrepreneur around the clock.
I have 2 weblog's and a syndication website. I started my first site about 8 years ago, which was a MP3 site and it ran quite well.
I use your site to stay at the top wave of SEO globally. Nothing matches it.
bye,
Satish Binda
Hi Satish
Thanks for the compliment.
Yes I know Mike. In fact he recently interviewed me.
Amsterdam has really yummie fruit yogurt drinks...or did when I was there anyhow. I also liked the Van Gogh museum and the HUGE park there a bunch too. :)

Hi,
My name is Kristina. I own an online lingerie boutique, GigisCloset.com, specializing in high-end intimates. I have owned the store for 3 years. We have incredible merchandise and getting the right traffic is important. My background is in sales and marketing so learning SEO is vital but the learning curve feels like it is straight up sometimes.
I just found your site and you may be my new hero and mentor. I am not a programmer, so some of the info is new and a bit over my head. I am determined to learn what I can. This site and the energy that you put into it is a great gift to all of us trying to achieve our own personal goals outside the "rat race".
Do you have a section for newbies or a progessive list of important tasks for seo?
Best,
Kristina
Hi Kristina
Thanks for the kind comments. One of my wife's nicknames is Gigi. :)
Hey Aaron,
It's Gab Goldenberg - the guy who's always trying to speak to you on Google Chat! lol ;)
Anyways, I've been doing SEO for a little over two years now, 1.5 professionally. Your book was a huge help and continues to inspire me. The breadcrumb navigation I had done custom (the existing WordPress plugins are out of date/broken/unsupported properly) was because of your book's suggestion.
So things here are good... I spoke at SMX West recently, and got to meet Rand and a whole bunch of the folks I'm always chatting with online, but missed you unfortunately. Besides that, I've gone part time in school this year to do SEO more seriously and am loving it! Hoping to translate some of that money into affiliate sites now...
Thanks for commenting Gab. Yeah I am a bit burned out on chat devices...plus I was a bit stressed with changing the business model and doing a lot of other stuff recently too. :)
Congrats on speaking so soon. There is lots of money in being one of the speakers if you leverage that. I have landed some HUGE clients that I didn't remember meeting because they met me at a conference.

Hi Chrissy
Fun site design you have there. :)
Hi my name is Alex. I am a full time SEO at an agency and run a few websites for fun on the side. One of them is GoogleSearchSucks.com where I try to keep an eye out on Google and some of their monopolistic behavior.
I read your blog to help shape my view of where the internet is going. My goal is to eventually take the plunge into entrepreneurship and start a true value add entity.
Hi Alex
Thanks for commenting. Best of luck with taking the plunge when you are ready to!
I'm Chuck. I comment mostly over at SEOmoz, but have been reading your stuff for quite awhile. Now I'm trying to round out my commenting a bit more--you know--that whole social media thing.
Welcome to the site Chuck.
I used to moderate a number of forums when I first broke into the industry. Dabbling around in a few different places is a good way to get more exposure. :)
My biggest tips are generally:

Hey Aaron,
Matt here... well, Burgo for most online profiles. South African currently residing in Australia, where I'm a full-time in house SEO. Have a few things going on the side, practising for the day when I can finally strut out on my own.
Thanks for the wealth of information that you've put at our fingertips!
Welcome to the site Matt. :)
Hi Aaron,
I'm Michael Fridman and am in Australia, doing in-house online marketing for about 3 websites for 2 years -- also just started a blog of my own which I'm hoping to grow.
Been an avid reader of SEOBook for almost all the 2 years I've been in "the industry" -- thanks for the continuing insights!
Thanks for saying hi and reading that long Michael. :)
Mr. Wall,
My name is Mike Shannon, I've been reading your on-line thoughts for about a year now, very good info, I've even had my employees read your book. I run a small SEM shop in San Diego, do a bit of development work and love to create special effects videos in my spare time.
Also wanted to ask you how you like drupal so far, I've been thinking of switching platforms for a few of my sites as wordpress seems a bit sluggish. Thanks.
Hi Mike
Welcome to the site. :)
I think by default Wordpress is faster than Drupal, but Drupal allows you to add in more deeper features for membership type sites and other cool stuff like that.
Hi Aaron,
My name is Hassan Aanbar and I am a Moroccan living in Ohio. I am currently going to school and in 4 months from now, I will become an in house SEO consultant at a Moroccan company.
I have been involved with internet marketing and SEO for about 3 years without ever producing something of value. I just started a bunch of blogs that will hopefully give more value to my resume. I've been reading your blog for about 6 months now and I have just purchased the SEO book. I honestly love it, Awesome Book with great information, very valuable.
And yes, I just have a lot of emphasis on value, because I created some crap websites in the past and now I want to make up for it.
Thanks
Welcome to the site Hassan. Best of luck with the new job...I am sure you will do well with it. :)
Hi, Aaron,
I'm Ian Lowe and my business is Prodora Memories.
Although it's not promoted there at this time, I also do web design and help companies with Internet marketing.
I got the SEOBook about a year ago, and am looking forward to getting more involved in the community.
Thanks for the site, Aaron.

My name is Jaan Kanellis aka IncredibleHelp. I moderate at WebProWorld, but visit and participate on most all SEM forums and blogs. Been doing this since 1999 and still love it. Always dynamic and keeping each other on our toes.
Thanks for stopping by and saying hi Jaan...have seen you around on the forums a good bit :)
Hi Aaron
My name is Michael and I have only discovered your site and services after buying Dan Cauldrons Niche Business Builder software and subsequently being referred on via links.
I'm a newbie having a crack at internet marketing - so it's all gobbledygook to me!
Cheers!
Welcome to the site Michael. :)
Hello Aaron,
Just wanted to say thank you for the wealth of information. Most all of the research I do always points back to you and your associate.
I have read into some of your services. However, I am stuck. On one hand, I'll order when my business starts making money. But then I am really at, the business is not going to make any money unless I invest in this education. Any happy middle ground in your mind?
Thank you.
Michael J. Spindler
Hi Michael
I think the best investment you can ever make is in yourself and your education. And that is here or elsewhere. If our price seems steep to you then start learning some other web stuff first...buy the cluetrain manifesto, the purple cow, and don't make me think
Hi there!

Hello Everyone,
My name is Jason Hunter (no, not the Java Servlet Jason Hunter, the other one). Right now I'm working as a Web Developer for a company called UrbanMedia which specializes in websites for the Real Estate professionals.
I just recently rolled out an application utilizing PHP and Flash where the individual can create their own "Professional Virtual Tours" at http://www.urbanmediaitour.com though it is still in the Beta stage.
I have been keeping an eye on SEOBook off and on for a little over a year now, and it has helped me implement "best practices" for coding dynamic applications, though I haven't really done much true SEO. Never too late to get started though!
Welcome to the site Jason. :)
