Here’s a few SEO posts of note. There have been some decent posts this week that are worth pointing out, and giving a bit of “link love” to. Not surprisingly, a couple are my own.

First, check out SEO Theory by Michael Martinez. A number of his post were quite good this week. Let’s just say that the man reminds me of myself: he’s both reasonable and thorough. In Dear Google – Penalize this!, he speaks of the imaginary Minus 30 rule, which is being promoted heavily by a few morons. He also takes a look at footprints, the nasty things that tell Google everything about you, right down to the fact that you’re probably a “social link spammer” and maybe even a general malcontent. As Digg loses even more prominence over spam, a new way of looking at social network is probably overdue, but not forthcoming by most SEOs.

David Wallace makes a nice post about the insipid DMOZ which finally appears to be dottering on its’ tired, dare I say, antiquated legs.

Lastly, please check out two articles I’ve written about a very important issue. 301 Redirection – How To Part One – Why It Matters In Google, and the scintilating follow-up piece, 301 Redirection – Part Two – using .htaccess and mod_rewrite.
