Final Round-up of SEOcret Santa Gifts for SEOs!
FINALLY, here are the gifts that made their way to their recipients after Christmas (no thanks to the snow!). We want to say a BIG THANK YOU to all of you who took part! We look forward to more fun this Christmas! (Only 331 days to go!)
THE BIG REVEAL
Before we introduce you to the final round of tweets and twitpics of presents, we’d like to do a call for our wonderful SEOcret Santas to reveal themselves in the blog comments or directly to their SEOcret Santas! We’ve had numerous requests from recipients who are desperate to thank their SEOcret Santas personally! So please drop a comment below, or let them know!
@seocretsanta any chance of finding out who the wonderful Santa was that gave me the “I facebooked your mum” tee so I can say thanks?

Also, we’d really like to ask you something…
A small (but very important) favour
We’d like to ask a tiny, miniscule, ridiculously off-the-scale small favour.
(This is a lie, it’s a big favour).
You may have known the wonderful Jaamit Durrani – a hugely popular UK SEO. (If you did not know Jaamit, you can find out all about him here: http://www.google.com/search?q=jaamit) Very recently, at just 29 years old, Jaamit very sadly passed away. There is now a campaign to help his wife after his death. The ThinkVisibility Team have set up a simple donation page here: http://www.thinkvisibility.com/jaamit/
What’s the favour?
If you feel comfortable with it, here is the triple-favour we’d like to ask:
- If you are able to, please spare what you feel able as a donation to Jaamit’s wife here: http://bit.ly/helpjaamit – if it helps Jaamit’s wife just a little, we would be most grateful.
- Please tweet a link to the “Help Jaamit’s Wife” donation page here: http://bit.ly/helpjaamit – or alternatively, clicking this link will compose a tweet for you automatically on twitter.com (you can edit it before it’s posted): http://bit.ly/HelpJaamitsWife
- Finally, we have nominated Jaamit for a Shorty Award in #tech but we need votes! You can help simply by posting a tweet. This link will compose a tweet for you automatically in twitter.com (you can edit it before it’s posted): http://bit.ly/votejaamit
…and that’s it! A huge thank you in advance!
See you Christmas 2011!
Yours,
SEOcretSanta

P.S. If some drastically unfortunate cosmic event has occurred and you have not received a SEOcretSanta gift, do drop us an email – SEOcretSanta at gmail.com – and we’ll try to fix!
