Meet PPCHero, the Search Blogger of the Day. Today I’d like to highlight a post called Top Google Adwords Quality Score Misconceptions. Remember the old days when all you had to do was buy your way to the top of Adwords? Right, and despite the fact that those old days are long gone, people still have that misconception. PPCHero debunks that and more in this post which is just one of a series of Adwords Quality Score posts. Go read it and make sure you aren’t still living in the past, or have just completely misunderstood something. Then go read the rest of the series, or any of the other great PPC posts they’ve done.

Meet Roderick Ioerger, the Search Blogger of the Day. Today I’d like to highlight a post entitled Top Lists Are The Pits. From the post… “The truth is top lists have become over saturated as a product and are also now viewed mostly as watered down content. Is a single sentence or two really all that useful?”

Meet Taylor Pratt. He’s currently last on the Search Bloggers list because that’s how it worked out alphabetically. So I decided I would be different and promote the bloggers in the list in reverse order. Since this is the first Search Blogger of The Day post, I’ll give you a quick rundown of what it’s all about. I plan to highlight a post that I particularly enjoyed from each of the bloggers on the list, and share that with you. I’ll probably do this once or twice a week for the next couple of months, or until I’ve highlighted each of them. Who knows, maybe I’ll start over again when I’m done. We’ll see. But for now, let’s take a closer look at Taylor Pratt.
