Vancouver SEO Birthday Gift: Alex Brabant is emarketing 101
So, I ended up attending Alex's birthday party this past Saturday night (great Greek food at the Ouzeri in Kits, BTW). I know that he is a big SEO guy, so I thought I would give the "gift of a link". Alex runs a great consulting firm called emarketing 101, and Alex's title is a Vancouver BC Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Services Expert.
I remember first get interested in search results when I first started with Drupal. I spent a bunch of time trying to figure out what worked, and why. I can safely say that I'm nowhere near knowing all of the intricate details and "tricks" of SEO, but I think I still know the basics -- clean HTML code, clean URLs, some logical cross linking of pages (tags are great for this), and so on. And, of course, the three C's -- compelling content constantly.
Will this be a trend? Have other people given links as birthday gifts?

I'm not sure if clean code
I'm not sure if clean code is one of the big ideas behind SEO. I've been trying to get into it lately and have found a lot of SEO guys cringe at the idea that clean code does much for google.
But you're right. link juice (link backs) are great, as well as some good anchor text in that link back. Good internal linking with good anchor text.
Your final point is key, at least in my eyes, good quality content.
Nice
Thanks for the on-topic comment, Paul. I nuked your link, but congrats on the high quality website...built on Drupal no less! You might want to write up a case study and post it on Drupal.org, especially on your heavy use of images.
