Best Wishes to Andy Beal

I would like to wish Andy Beal, fellow SEO blogger, best of luck with his most recent blog announcement... Why I've Resigned from WebSourced. Andy is the name behind KeywordRankings. He brought in great talent and names like Mike Grehan and Heather Loyd-Martin.

Andy said his reasoning for leaving the company;

It is clear that my vision for the company’s future does not match-up with its current course. These philosophical differences have led me to conclude that WebSourced’s current path does not align with my own beliefs.

This is very similar to Jason Dowdell's entry on his resignation from websourced just a month ago. Where Jason says;

Well, quite simply, WebSourced and I had differences of opinion and have since parted ways.

Again, I would like to wish Andy all the best. In my opinion, this is a huge lose for Websourced & KeywordRankings.

Update: WebSourced pulled Andy's post.

Where did Andy's resignation letter go from search engine lowdown?

 

According to the update on this provided by Threadwatch, Andy indicates he was asked to remove the post from the blog.

 

Jason Dowdell and now Andy Beal. Two "white hatters" resigning less than a month apart. What is really going on at Websourced?

 

I never used the word "resign".

 

I "hear" you, Jason.

 

They also lost Ben Wills who from my understanding was a key player in their knowledge base.

 

Jason Dowdell, Andy Beal, and Ben Wills. Whoa! That is very significant.
