6 Years of SEO 2.0 Anniversary
Yes, it’s already 6 years ago that I started SEO 2.0, the blog you are reading right now. So this is an anniversary! The blog had a lot of ups and downs ever since and it has slowed down for a few years. In a way my own success has limited my time to work on the weblog itself. I’m still here though and I’m not going anywhere.
In fact I am preparing the SEO 2.0 ebook which is half done by now.
As a small present to all those who have stayed with me I have set up a new short domain for SEO 2.0 – as my blog is predominantly read by an American audience, roughly 40% of visitors are from the US – the logical choice given that most .com etc. domain names are gone was:
Now you can type it in into your browser address bar and who knows maybe even Google will pick it up. I still block Google so that you can’t type SEO 2.0 into the address bar and get redirected via search so the new short domain will hopefully simplify your browsing experience a bit now.
I want to thank everybody who has supported me over the years.
I know who you are and one day I will be able to support you too I bet in case I haven’t done so yet. I’d like also to thank the whole SEO industry that has evolved pretty much since 2007. Much of what was 2.0 back then is common sense now and I’m glad it is. You don’t have to say “SEO 2.0” in most cases anymore because modern SEO is 2.0, 3.0 or even more advanced by now.
Keep on progressing everybody!
Congrats! Keep up the good work and I look forward to see your e-book published:)
whoa – six years. you got some grey in that blogging beard, man? hey, thanks for your support and things you discuss here, which give some personalization amid an industry that doesn’t always supply it.
I still block Google.. still gangster.. keep going, man. cheers.
Krystian: Thank you for the feedback and I think I will set up a list you can subscribe to to get notified about the ebook.
Hey Anthony, yeah, my sideburns turn grey a bit but as I practice parkour I feel 10 years younger despite that. Better gangster” than victim. Google has victimized so many webmasters and made them beg I wonder why not more people say “enough”.
I’m late to the party, but congratulations Tad!
Thanks for giving me a chance all of those months ago and thanks for all of the support. You’re a rogue maverick dude and I appreciate that. There aren’t many people in this industry who are both subversive AND intelligent.
Here’s to 6 more years, my dude.
(keep us posted on the ebook!)
Thank you for the kind words Dustin!
To me it seems that just recently you humbly guest posted here and now you’re already SEO blogging superstar! I’m just good at spotting the nascent movers and shakers.
Congrats to the family of SEO 2.0. I read this website from 1 year and observed that you guys are different from others. You provide content and service for the development of people and that’s why we experts learn many thing from here. Go ahead.
Happy Anniversary!
Keep moving forward!
I would say nowadays we are in SEO 4.0 since panda and penguin came to scene but Congrats!! This is a great blog. ;-)
I dont know who said this but it fits perfect here: “The obvious is that which is never seen until someone expresses it simply”.
Thank you Nick! I will!
Jay, Panda and Penguin have been included in SEO 2.0 even before the updates were conceived. Just read the posts from a few years ago.
Well its nice this industry hasn’t evolved too much since then. Its nice to have a good amount of SEO knowledge that remains the same so we can give clients some direction and its not all guessing work.
