So a couple weeks ago I read Aaron Walls article that depicted Matt Cutts and a few online marketers as LEGO people (which I thought was very cool) and thought to myself, “why stop there?”. My imagination kicked into gear and I began wondering what the best SEOs in the industry would look like if they were all made of LEGO. So I searched the web for a list of the most trusted and influential SEOs, and merged the SEOs I found with those whom I had met at conferences over the years or had personally worked with on projects.
Below you will find the first ever infographic of the best SEO consultants in the industry depicted as LEGO people (no SEOs were harmed in the making of this infographic).

What is SEO?
SEO stands for search engine optimization. It is the process of getting traffic from the free, organic, or natural listings on search engines. The best SEOs understand that SEO is not one sided and requires technical, links, content, and social campaigns working together to get the best results.

Of course Rand HAD to be first. It wouldn’t be Friday without a whiteboard! Do you have any reactions from above “lego’d” guru’s? I would love to read them.
Yeh he just happen to be the first that came to mind (guess that shows how well he has branded himself). We have not had any yet, but feel free to nudge them to comment through Twitter
Wow! This is the single coolest thing to ever happen to me
My nerd levels just went through the roof. Cheers and let me know if I can do anything to help.
Love this
Thanks Danny. We had a blast making it!
Thanks Richard.
Boser, Cyrus and Wil need to get those growths looked at…
If this isn’t the single greatest idea for linkbait I don’t know what is. All the top SEOs, all in a nerdy format they can identify with = gold!
I definitely love the concept of this infographic, seeing my seo idols in their lego counterpart is pretty cool.
Such a sad list, you only really went off of US bases SEO’s. Example, Barry Schwartz is a hack and a joke who just trolls the forums. What a crappy list of US based SEO’s. How about building a real worldwide list?
I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion and thank you for the (somewhat?) constructive criticism. Who would you suggest we add to the list?
@Frank
Hmm, not solely U.S. based SEOs at all:
- Dave Naylor
- Richard Baxter
- Will Critchlow
etc.
Thanks for the shoutout. It’s always an honor to be on such a list with all the awesome SEO folks out there!
Not a problem Todd, we had fun making it.
