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:

Local SEO Practice: Creating a Fictitious Business?
Has anyone tried fabricating a fake, brick-and-mortar store as an SEO experiment? Sort of along the lines of what Starwood is doing (check out this Wikipedia experiment with the Test Galaxy Sheraton), but with a legitimate physical address and all? Was it useful? And are there any potential legal troubles that could arise from borrowing a vacant address? I'm thinking this could be helpful for my Intern to gain practical experience in local SEO, without the politics of working for a client But I wouldn't want to blight that address for future occupants if the experiment went horribly awry. We could instead offer pro bono services to a small business with a limited web presence – that would be useful to her, and constructive. But I'd like to have a better understanding of what signals Google looks for when deciding whether to index a website in local search, and see whether possible to dupe those algos. What are your thoughts, Mozzers? .

SEOMOZ Glossary
Does SEOmoz have a glossary of terms. I answer many questions in Q&A and many people don't know what things stand for. "Uuhhhhh what's GWT?" "UUUUUhhh who's Matt Cutts?" "DDuuuhhhhh What GA?" I think it would be good to have a Glossary. SEObook has one, but I don't want to link from this forum to SeoBook. I want to keep it all in the Moz family of subscribers. (DDuurrrr, what's a SERP?)
