Search Engine Watch Forums has a thread asking members What's Your SEO Daily Routine? Now, I know many SEOs, some are morning people, some are evening people and some are sporadic. So typical in the SEO community, as with many other industries, is not so typical.
I pattern I see in the responses include;
- Most read blogs on a daily basis.
- Some devoted listen to podcasts
- Many obviously check forums
- Meetings
- Work Work
- Phone Calls & EMails
One member posted his strict SEO schedule;
