The Dali Lama of Search

Posted by Greg on August 29th, 2006

It still feels so strange to even say it. Danny’s leaving.

I think many people new that Danny’s relationship with Incisive wasn’t going that well. But I never thought in a million years Incisive would be stupid enough to actually let him go. I think they will learn in a very short amount of time what a huge mistake they made.

Danny is the Dali Lama of search. And where the Dali Lama goes, people will follow. And since the Dali Lama has no non-compete, people will probably be following him to a competitor of some type.

I’m looking forward to see what Danny ends up doing. I know whatever it is, it will be big, and he will continue on as one of the most influential people in the world of search.

    In theory, Incisive could salvage the forums, but what good are they without the real revenue generators out there in the wings supporting it all?

    I can’t imagine my job without listening to his podcasts and reading his articles. Its sorta a trip to think he won’t be organizing SES as well.

    Yes that true Danny is real Dalai Lama of search and noone can take his place in search field.. When I first started seo it was him whose articles I used to read and follow. He makes things really easy to understand even for the newbie to this field..

    I agree that Danny is the Dalia lama of search, he practically invented the term, Search Engine Optimization.

Got something to say?
