One day I stumbled into Cre8asite Forums and found a person named bragadocchio authoring some of the most detailed and generous answers to forum members' questions. He had to have spent an hour - or much longer - composing his posts. There were hundreds of his posts in the forum! What a fount of knowledge and kindness! He gladly shared his wisdom and experience with people he didn't know, some of whom were passing strangers who might never pop into that forum again.

I posted many questions at Cre8asite and he (and many other members) so kindly answered them in such detail. I learned so much from bragadocchio, who I later learned was named Bill Slawski.

I especially enjoyed Bill's research and writings about search engine patents. What a brilliant way to discovery how search engines are thinking and apply that information into building a successful website.

I had the great privilege to spend several Saturday mornings talking by phone with Bill about all things SEO. Bill's approach to ranking your website in Google was all common sense, non-manipulative, create good things for the visitor and your site will be successful. This is not the route for the greedy person. It is the route for the generous person - who is willing to believe in their work and that the non-manipulative approach will carry it forward.

Anyone who reads Bill's writings can understand how great content can succeed on its own.

Bill, you are one of the wisest and most generous people that I have known. Thank you !
