Best blogs to follow?

Hey Everybody
Im fairly new to SEO and would like to ask which blogs would be beneficial to follow to keep ahead of the ever changing algorithms and methods.
I'm already a avid reader of the SEOMOZ blog which I find a invaluable source of information.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

- http://www.seomoz.org/blog - SEOmoz
- http://www.seomoz.org/ugc - SEOmoz Users

Yes, there are many, but I find it easy to setup RSS feeds into my Outlook and skim through them like emails.

Can't not say I'm a fan of the Distilled blog! http://www.distilled.net/blog/
And there's lots of great (especially for link building) posts on SEER Interactive: http://www.seerinteractive.com/blog/
Finally, there's just been too many good posts recently from Ross Hudgens to ignore him anymore: http://www.rosshudgens.com/
-
Ooof there are so many and really it depends if you want news, tips or want to learn more about a particular niche. In lieu of a long list I'd recommend SEO Gadget, State of Search and SEO Theory.
-
don't forget search engine land
-
I like
http://www.cre8asiteforums.com/forums/ (not a blog, but a forum)
http://www.searchenginejournal.com/
What I do, though, is follow a bunch of seo people on twitter including @randfish, @rosshudgens @jillwhalen @seobook @krisroadruck @mattcutts @aaronwall and @searchengineland. These folks always point out the new and good content in the seo world.
-
Definitely add http://mattcutts.com/blog to the list
-
I like the SEO Moz blog the best. You should also follow the Official Google Blog http://googleblog.blogspot.com/
Search Engine Watch is another good one http://searchenginewatch.com/page/newsletters

Blog Post Relevance vs Traffic
Hello Moz community, I have a website (lets say that I am selling tshirts), and want to create a blog (www.website.com/blog). With that blog, I would like to post about random topics including travel, leisure, events, new products etc. I want to do this for 1. to get affiliate commissions, 2. to increase web traffic, 3. to potentially increase my domain authority. I would like to know if this blog with random posts would negatively affect my website ranking and keyword ranking (for t-shirts), as it is not relevant to the products that I am selling (and the keywords that I am ranking for). As Google currently understands that my website is a webstore selling t-shirts (and I am ranking for the tshirt keywords), but the algorithm get confused if I start posting about travel and random topics? Your help greatly appreciated in the matter.

Best X-Cart SEO Solutions / Modules?
We recently acquired an e-commerce client that uses X-Cart. We have no previous experience with this platform and it's hard to find any good / helpful info regarding SEO functionality online. Right now I need to figure out how to handle mass redirects of 404 errors, friendlier URLs, resolving duplicate content, XML sitemap generation, robots.txt generation. The functionality built into the platform so far is terrible and all of the modules are pricey. Any recommendations, general or specific, would be insanely helpful if anybody out there has experience with this particular platform. Thanks!
