Hi and Welcome Hackers & Founders - and Thank you for Sharing :)

[ShaMenz]

Just got through watching an awesome presentation from Rand Fishkin at the Hackers & Founders event in California. Rand started out by announcing that all members will be getting 2 free months of SEOmoz Pro! So I got to thinking...it's quite likely there are going to be a few new faces around Q&A pretty soon

So, I wanted to say a few things to you all:

• Most important of all, Hi!
• Welcome to the SEOmoz community. I know the tools & content you'll find here can help your venture in so many ways and really look forward to following the story of your Startup as you reveal it to the world!
• Thank you! I'm half a world away in Australia and have yet to see Rand present in person, but today I've experienced the next best thing because you were kind enough to include me by producing and sharing this great video on Hackers and Founders TV! Well I've seen Rand present via video at two Mozcation events, but since I don't understand a word of Spanish and parts of his presentation were in said language, I'm not counting those! Anyway, Thanks! I loved it.
• If you are just getting to know SEOmoz there are a few places you absolutely should not miss
  • The Daily SEO Blog
  • Pro Webinars
  • Special weekly video Blog posts known as Whiteboard Friday
  • The Youmoz Blog - posts by SEOmoz users
  • The Beginner's Guide to SEO - definitely the place to start!
  • oh and Q&A, but you're already here!
• Hope to catch up with you somewhere in the community, whether it be here in Q&A, in the blog comments, enjoying a webinar, or maybe following @SEOmoz @randfish, @SEOmozPRO or even that handsome little devil @roger_mozbot on Twitter

Enjoy!

No worries ... just spreading a little TAGFEE

Oops! Sorry Hackers & Founders...nearly forgot one of the most important things I wanted to share ... to really understand how things work at SEOmoz, you need to know about TAGFEE

Oops!

I forgot to mention Mozcon!

I think Cyrus Shepard pretty much summed up the value of the event in his recent blog post I'll be at Mozcon 2012. Will you?.

If you can make it to Seattle in July I'll see you there too
