Not counting seomoz or Distilled, what are your top3 SEO blogs you wouldchoose to read if you had a hard limit of 3 total?

Recently on Q&A, Petra weighed in with a link tool site that had completely missed my radar. My problem is lack of time. I don't have enough of it to readthe2 dozen+ SEO blogscurrently in my RSS feed I would like to tobe able to read to stay current. So I end up only reading at the moz.
I'm hoping the collective wisdom of the SEOmoz crowd will shine forthand set me on the road of pursuit of new knowledge with the best of the best blogs

SearchCap- As Kristy said, the digest version.
SEO by the Sea- Bill stays on top of patents, which helps future-proof your sites.
SEO Book- Aaron stays on top of SEO goings-on.

Hey Cowboy -
Some of my favs include:
http://www.johnon.com/ - John Andrews' Competitive Webmastering & SEO
http://www.seobythesea.com/ - Bill Slawski's SEO by the Sea
http://www.conversationmarketing.com - Ian Lurie's Conversation Marketing
-
Apart from already mentioned, I like http://www.seroundtable.com/:
- They provide really up-to-date information.
- They have mobile version. I read them mostly on my BlackBerry while standing in queue, waiting on something, on the lift etc.
- The provide a lot of links for deeper discovering.
- Their articles are useful.
-
I'm a huge fan of SearchCap. I take 15-30 minutea each day and review it. Typically keeps me up to date on anyything happening in the industry.
-
Searchcap is what you're looking for - feed version gives me a daily update of stuff to read: http://searchengineland.com/feeds
-
There is a TON of stuff there - agreed. I tend to rely on their emails for the "digest" version. Able to skim titles/topics and the best content is pushed out there.

Back in August 2010 Rand listed his top 10 which can be found at:-
http://www.seomoz.org/blog/best-seo-blogs-top-10-sources-to-stay-uptodate
As well as listing them he also explained why he reads them.
I bookmarked his post (which I refer regularly to) so I didn't need to bookmark all of his recommendations.
-
Thanks Thomas. I'll give two of them a shot (already follow Pete who's quite funny)
-
To be honest, I only read SEOmoz regularly. Besides that, my reading effort is spread out wide and primarily influenced by twitter. So instead of following blogs, I prefer following Twitter people - especially those who don't just link to their own blog. My top 3 there would be:
@crazyegg
@KISSinsights
@dr_pete

I've recently discovered: http://explicitly.me/ and love it.
-
searchengineland.com is one of my favourites, too. But I always read the http://searchengineland.com/searchcap-the-day-in-search-date.... there I have kind of a "best of" and scan trought the titles and select then the post I read.
http://www.searchenginejournal.com/
http://www.ericward.com/ - I like his way of thinking regarding link building (but this is not in the top3 (seomoz of course, too).

Sorry for the Distilled omission mate. I fixed it in edit. Oh! forgot to say welcome to the States!
-
Thanks Tom. The problem I have with SearchEngineland is that there's too much info. I find that I tend to move on without reading if I'm short time. Now a "Readers Digest" of SEL would be great!

Tough question! Ignoring both seomoz and distilled I'd probably go for:

SEO Ads On Third Party Job Sites?
Hello all, I seriously doubt I will get a reply to this as I'm guessing no one has experience with it. if you do though then I would appreciate any information either via comment or PM. Basically, I need to know how I can improve the rankings of job posts within the third party sites. An example would be totaljobs.com, how can I improve the rankings of advertisements that are posted there or is it simply ranked by date and location?. When I had my eBay business, I did a lot of research on eBay SEO and discovered some important factors for ranking within the eBay website. I'm basically wanting to do the same here on job board websites for job ads posted to them. Their algorithms won't be as advanced as Google etc so I'm guessing if they do they will be open for higher keyword density levels and that kind of thing.. I've googled it quite a bit and can't find any information at all on it. Thanks.

Using SEOMOZ on kindle
Sorry if asked in the wrong section (or indeed if this is even a relevant question), but couldn't find an off topic section Am considering buying a Kindle ebook reader for various reasons, one of which would be to read the QandA and the community posts without being stuck at my desk all the time. Does anyone use a kindle to browse these sections? Does it work ok? I don't want to get a full tablet as I have no need for all the functions on it. Thanks, Carl

I want to be able to test them on their ability and have already set them the SEOMOZ test: http://www.seomoz.org/seo-expert-quiz . Does anyone know of any other decent online SEO tests I can set them - I haven't really got the time to develop a test myself, so I am looking for some pre-build online testing. Thanks
