We’ve been talking about the change from SEOmoz to Moz all day at the office, so we figured we’d share our thoughts with you. This conversation between Cory Collins, my friend and colleague, and I was conducted via Google Docs. He sits in the cubicle right next to mine, so the hilarity is not lost on us. It’s just easier to put it down into words this way.

Bad Link Building | SEO Trespasses and Link Pollution

SEO still has a bad name, and the story I’m about to tell you is the reason. When link builders are lazy and amoral, our online communities see the results. I’m referencing a recent invasion of my beloved Neurolux Message Board, where an SEO company made a post with the subject ‘buy backlinks.’
