Don’t have the time to read all the marketing news, blog posts, announcements, and other content related to SEO/social media/online marketing published each week?
I’ve got you covered.
I sift through trillions (well, hundreds) of online publications to stay on top of marketing news that might affect your online business.
By the way, here’s what you can do with each piece of news:
Let’s start with the news from Traffic Generation Café.

SEO Is Dead. Link Building Is Dead. Your Pony Is Dead.
Link building is dead.
SEO is on its last leg.
The tricks to beat and spam Google no longer work as well (dang!).
SEOMoz.com has dropped “SEO” and turned into Moz.com.
SEO agencies are bound to start closing their doors any day now.
Unless, that is, they are hired by the same clients they’ve built bad links for to remove those links.
Wait a minute… What happened to the pony again?
