Cats of SEO (and a few dogs while we’re at it)
Matt Cutts, in responding to the the question Why Do I Blog? came up with an interesting idea:
I think someone should start a “Cats of SEO” blog post.
I agree. If you’re an SEO, an SEM, a search marketer (or whatever you care to call what we do), or if you’re just active in the search marketing community and you want in, send me:
- A pic of your beastie(s)
- Their name(s)
- Your name
- Your company
- Your URL
The address is bob at raisemyrank dot com, and please put “SEO Cats” in the subject line. And yes, dogs will be accepted too. We’re very open minded here.

A thought just occurred to me — we already know about the eagle and the Galapagos turtle (tortoise? turtle? goat?), but I wonder if, somewhere on his undoubtedly palatial estate, SC from SC has the greatest living American cat.

Hi Dude,
it seems funny, but we ARE the SEO Cats ;-)
Never came across your project since today… seems to be a funny coincidence, eh?
Greetings from Berlin!

You need a cat to do your work when you are asleep. Cats are best in social media and many companies hire them as support.
