Greetings Champions!
There really isn't any type of SEO training in all honesty. I read a post some time ago that to be a great SEO one has to want to be better. Justin Briggs uses the term "hustle" alot, and he often talks about being motivated with his work and that is the source of his skill. You have to have the curiosity to learn and dig for the information. Visit SEOMoz daily and read the blog posts, watch the WBF's go on Google and do your own experiments and see how the search engine works and before you know it, you will begin to understand how it all works. Good luck with your training and your quest for page 1!

First off, forget about any "certification" - that might be one of the most difficult things to justify in our industry.
As far as online seo training, seobook.com has a great forum and tools to consider as well.

Hi hfranz,
Kaushik Avinash is teaching on: http://www.marketmotive.com/
But you can learn a lot if you read the articles on http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo too.
Also the whiteboard friday videos (and lately the whiteboard+ videos) provide a lot of information regarding advanced SEO and a lot of online marketing issues you can meet in the world of SEO.
L.E.: The Whiteboard+ video can be found on: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/why-every-marketer-now-needs-a-google-strategy
Have fun reading and learning!

What is a good forum or resource to contact fellow SEO professionals for SEO partnership opportunities i.e. link trades?
While Moz is an excellent resource, i get the impression that it is for community-based SEO questions that can serve as a knowledge database. I am looking for a forum or resource where I can contact other SEO workers to explore link exchange opportunities. For example, i want to reach out to those who do SEO for audio/visual, technology, and event-planning companies so i can offer them links in exchange for some recommended links to my site. Before anyone dogs on link trading as being spammy and not best practice, it would only be done in a useful, relevant, and non-spammy fashion with other high authority sites. Thanks! Ryan

What platform is best for a searchable online library platform for articles, videos and audio?
I have a client who needs an online library for articles, PDFs, videos, and audio. Here are some of the criteria I need met: needs to be searchable needs to be able to accept guest blogging needs to be able to accept user feedback on each item all the items are free. needs to be able to filter results within search results. needs to be able to handle over 10,000 documents/articles that will be put on the site. content needs to be tagged with one or more tags for improved searching. I am familiar with WordPress but wasn't sure that was the best solution for a more advanced library. Any suggestions on other platforms that will work for this application?

What are the most effective SEO methods for online communities and forums?
My company has a global online community of over 350,000+ members. We allow users to submit articles revolving around the scrum and agile framework. Sometimes the submissions become overwhelming and I am curious if there is anyone out there who may have experience with this same scenario. I don't want to place meta data on every single article that comes in, because I don't have the resources nor time to optimize each and every article. Does anyone have techniques or suggestions in regards to either leaving the meta data untouched or customizing each individual piece? Any thoughts or ideas will be extremely helpful. Thanks

Does anyone know if there are UK SEOMoz training courses I can attend?
I'd really like to find a one-day course where I could have it all explained and all my questions answered. I've been using SEOMoz for a month or so but I have many unanswered questions and feel that the user guide doesn't explain things, it just tells you what you can do, but not necessarily why.

What SEO conferences do you recommend?
I need your recommendations for which SEO conference I should attend to during 2011-2012. I've been working with SEO since 2002 so I'm not a beginner. I want the good stuff! 🙂 However I havn't been to that many conferences before, only PubCon Las Vegas several times. I would therefore appreciate some help from you guys who have tried them all (or at least several of them) 🙂 Thank's a lot!
