Search engine optimization and marketing newsletters

On this page we present newsletters that mainly focus on search engine optimization and marketing.

However, anyone interested in getting a good ranking in the search engines, must also learn about search engines in general, hence you should also take a look at our page for general search engine newsletters.

Planet Ocean's Search Engine News Newsletter

By reading a newsletter like the Pandia Post you will get the big picture as regards search engine development and search engine optimization. If you optimize your own site, or would like to stay up to date on the intricacies of ranking and marketing, you need more. We recommend a subscription to Planet Ocean's Search Engine News monthly newsletter.

The newsletter includes search engine updates for Yahoo!, Google, Inktomi, AltaVista, Lycos, ODP, LookSmart and Overture. Each issue has articles on topics like spam, Web technologies, keyword selection, paid inclusion services, linking strategies and more.

There is also a Quick Submit Reference Chart, a Global Search Engine and Directory List and an Inktomi Powered Search Engines Comparison Chart. Moreover, you get Planet Ocean's excellent introduction to search engine optimization, The UnFair Advantage Book on Winning the Search Engines Wars, as a very useful bonus. This book is updated every month.

For US$97 you get the ebook, six months of Search Engine News, and access to six years of archives and resources, and you'll get a refund if you don't like it.

Let's make one thing perfectly clear. Pandia will get a percentage if you accept this offer after having clicked on the link below. We would, however, never recommend a product like this one if we didn't believe it to be one of the best -- yes, probably the best -- available. We read the newsletter regularly and do pay for our own subscription!

Blogs and RSS feeds

Some argue that the age of the Internet newsletters are coming to an end. Anyone who has tried to publish one, knows how hard it is to get the newsletters past the spam filters.

Moreover, more and more sites (including Pandia) is providing web feeds/RSS feeds which can be read by a newsreader or included in portal home pages, giving you real time alerts every time your favorite site has posted a new article.

It is really a matter of preference, really. For a list of search engine oriented blogs and news services, see the Pandia Search Engine Detective. Most of them provide RSS feeds.

To subscribe to Pandia's RSS feeds using one of the relevant services, see our RSS information page.
