I've been in the SEO industry for many years and a French reader of SeoByTheSea. Reading Bill's patent analysis allows me to have a better understanding of how search works.

Whenever I've talked about advanced seo, I've always referenced to his blog where he generously shared his extended knowledge. I'm sure he will be remembered as a true legend in our seo industry.

Thoughts to his family, friends and coworkers. You'll be missed, Bill.
