The 2,000th SEO Scoop Post
I just noticed that there were 1,999 posts here, so I thought, hmmm…. I should do something special for the 2000th! Unfortunately, my creative brain cells were on vacation, so I couldn’t come up with anything cool. Instead, I thought I’d just push you towards a series of posts I just completed over on my DazzlinDonna blog. I did get a little flack for spreading the posts out and being wordy, but I did that for a reason. Maybe it wasn’t a good reason, I don’t know, but hey, it was A reason. 
I occasionally like to make people think. Rather than just handing someone 10 Easy Steps To Do Something, I sometimes like people to have to use their minds to think a bit. You’ve seen me do it before here on SEO Scoop. I’ll occasionally throw out some thoughts and make you think about what I might mean by them. Well, for the series I just did, I eventually gave all the answers, but I didn’t give them all in one post, so from one day to the next, I hoped I’d get people thinking. I know for sure I got some people irritated, since they told me so. LOL!
Anyway, the series is complete now, so for anyone who wants all the answers, with no brainpower needed, they can get them all by reading through to the end.
So, here’s the series in its entirety. It’s all about Becoming An Authority (Substitute Expert or Guru if you like).
You Are An Authority, Yes, You Are
Getting Influencers To Call You An Authority
How To Nudge Influencers To Recognize Your Expertise
As An Authority, You Need An Online Press Kit
And now, this 2000th post is over.

If you are the first to "discover" any of my posts in StumbleUpon, one of the following categories would probably be the most appropriate to place it into. You don't have to choose one of these, of course, but based on what I usually write about, there's a good chance any of my posts will fall into one of these categories.
Business * Computers * Computer Graphics * Computer Hardware * Computer Security * Databases * Ecommerce * Internet * Internet Tools * Linux/Unix * Marketing * Search * Self Improvement * Web development * Weblogs(Blogs) * Windows * Writing

Wow, I think that would completely expire all my thinking, I think I was around 200 posts or something like that, GREAT job getting to 2,000.
What is funny is you did 2,000 posts and this is the first time I can remember finding your site (although you were in my reader), so keep workin’ you can probably still get new readers even after so many posts.
Congrats.

Congrats on #2000 DD - great body of work and amzing as I have a mere 400 or so… Have always enjoyed the work done here and as a fella prone to ranting - the occasional ‘tude is beauties!
As for the whole authority gig, m’dawg Jeff has ran so many posts on it by me the last few months that I am getting to be an authority on authority building
Congrats once again and I look forward to #3000!

Many congratulations, Donna. That really is impressive. I spread myself currently over three blogs, but I have nowhere near that number yet. I must do the sums sometime. I then will have your dilemma. Which blog gets the Xth post? Oh, decisions, decisions ..

You go girl! I know the kind of dedication it takes to keep it up. You write about things we care about. That’s why I keep coming back. Thank you!

Wow, hard to believe you are at 2,000. Do you know what the record is? I wonder if this is something Guiness checks out. Hard to believe i’m still trying to break the 100 barrier. Getting there though.
