Good morning, Marketers, congratulations are in order.

One of the best things about Search Engine Land is that its top editor has always held deep experience and passion for search marketing. So it’s within that tradition that I’m thrilled to announce the promotion of Danny Goodwin as the new managing editor of Search Engine Land and SMX. Danny will no doubt expand upon the high quality that has always set Search Engine Land apart.

That also seems like a good place to leave you. I have enjoyed playing my part in guiding Search Engine Land for nearly four years, but now it’s time to move on. I offer this passage from my favorite poem about SEO as I go.

 Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil!—prophet still, if bird or devil!—

Whether Tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore,

    Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted—

    On this home by Horror haunted—tell me truly, I implore—

Is there—is there balm in Gilead?—tell me—tell me, I implore!”

            Quoth the Raven “It depends.”
