DrupalEasy Podcast 23: Ben Finklea Interview, Author of "Drupal 6 Search Engine Optimization"

Posted Tuesday, January 31 at 3:28 pm

Thomas Turnbull (tom_o_t on drupal.org) and Alan Palazzolo (zzolo on drupal.org) join Mike Anello to talk about their new book from O’Reilly Media, Mapping with Drupal. Mike’s usual co-hosts, Andrew and Ryan, were both unable to participate in the podcast, leaving Thomas and Alan subject to Mike’s long-winded (but extremely interesting by some accounts) questions.

On March 11th I attended the first DrupalEasy Workshop in Orlando, Florida. I'm an experienced web developer who has recently picked up Drupal as a tool for helping to build high quality content-driven websites. Mike and Ryan were excellent teachers - they gave a thorough overview of a complex topic in a short space of time, and provided plenty of resources for us to continue learning. The workshop is essential for anyone who has previously configured a basic Drupal site and wishes to take their skills to an advanced level. I would not hesitate to recommend DrupalEasy.com training and hope to attend more workshops in the future.

Great podcast!

Being new to Drupal, I've been checking out all of your podcasts and learning much. This one is particularly useful as I've been looking at ways to beef up SEO.

Thanks!

PS: I like the newly-coined "book-a-ways". :-)

Just found this :) I saw your presentation in Paris. But I only just subscribed (interview with Crelll!!) I've been a long time user of Drupal, but I'm kind of the permanent beginner. Just started following on twitter and saw if I post here I can enter to win win win!

I'd love to read this book. I'm getting into Drupal consulting more, and people are really keen on SEO stuff.
