Translation done! You can see it here : http://adscriptum.blogspot.com/2006/05/blogs-et... with a few good (at least I hope so!) inbound links to you. Reading your blog I see there are quite a few posts very interesting, and sometimes I'd like to translate some of them, always providing other BL if you agree. Kind regards, Jean-Marie

Thanks John. I know I'm a shit for putting something like that out there, but why not?

At least you are being honest, I am blown away at your 10k links in yahoo, the only thing I do not agree with is that your inbound links are at all natural, but good for you, wish I had it in me to do what you do. You are an extremely efficient self promoter.
Psst, you also moved up to page #1 for "pubcon" and several others phrases, yep it looks like it is still about the god damn links. ;)

Hey Aaron, by no means are my inbound links ALL "natural". At least not any more natural than a company getting mentioned in a magazine article because their PR firm arranged for an interview between the journalist and the company CEO.
I used to do "traditional" link building, but haven't bothered in the past year or so. At a certain point, a tipping point maybe, there's enough momentum generated that you can gain enough links just by producing content. Links come to you unsolicited. There's always room for a little nudge here and there, but it's more productive overall to spend the time on the content after a while rather than manufacturing links.

I am wondering what you think, Lee, in terms of how long linking (backlinking) will play as large a roll in the overal aspects of SEO rankings...
My theory is that linking weight will subside within the next two years when an algorithym will come into play that includes a thorough analysis of website relevance and perhaps a third party authority website.

Hi Fil, I don't think there's any doubt that current ranking methodology will change. That includes the way link citations are valued and interpreted. I do belive citations from other sources, pages without actual links for example, along with user data will play an increasingly important role.

Nice post and congratulations on your success! I see new "blog directories" cropping up on the web all the time nowadays. Perhaps this will be the next "big thing" for blog marketing.

Lee,
Indeed we are seeing an explosion of social media, and social marketing. Along with this search engine marketing, optimization, link building, and many other social internet (Web2.0) developments are skyrocketing. Thank you for sharing this information there are many good points here!
