Back in March of this year Michael Dorausch was the first to kick of our ongoing series of guest post blogs. We did so not only to broaden the scope of the content available on our site but also, tacky sounding or not, to build a larger connection with the SEO world.
Last week behind the scenes we started to make preparations to deepen that relation with the SEO world and to help those interested in our industry to get some of the best, smartest, wittiest information available out there.
It's almost a case of personal pride to be allowed to be the one chosen to announce the names of our new contributors. Yes, you read that right; not guest posters -- no, contributors.
In no particular order:
Donna Fontenot
Donna Fontenot, aka DazzlinDonna, is an ebusiness coach who talks and teaches from first hand experience.
She practices and preaches no-nonsense SEO. She smart, witty and *s*p*a*r*k*l*i*n*g*. (Disclosure: both Donna and I are moderators at Cre8asite Forums)
Melanie Nathan
Melanie Nathan, a.k.a. status_girl, handles SEO and related matters for the Edmonton web development company STATUSfirm. She's one of the smartest link builders I know, taking her time to go beyond simple dump & drop links.

Her resource posts are always real helpful, easy to digest, concise. She's never too shy to share good information.

And there you have it!
Our initial aim is to hear a different view from the trenches every Monday. Meanwhile we keep on looking for additional contributors and other ways to build out our SEO community involvement.
To the new contributors: welcome and thank you!
