The Search Engine Roundtable is a site operated by Barry Schwartz, the President of RustyBrick. He has run the site for over seven years now and has finally decided to revamp the site from the bottom up.

The Search Engine Roundtable's new look breaks itself away from the standard blog look and now looks more like an official news or magazine web site. It includes an improved design for navigation and browsing older stories. It shows a quick snap shot of the top stories for the day. The new improved interface for commenting and sharing stories makes it easier for readers to interact on the site. The video content and picture content is quicker to interact with. Finally, the design supports a very cool and fun theme system that lets us set different holiday themes to give the design a fresh look on special days.

On the development front, we moved off a standard blog content management system (CMS) and are now utilizing a custom RustyBrick CMS. The core reason for moving is flexibility and security. In the past, there were limitations on what features can be added to the site, now there are no restrictions. We've added tons of features and many more are to come, both on the front end user interface and on the backend CMS components. These include:

Better category system, authors sections and date archives
Weekly video now automatically pulled from YouTube without manual intervention
Daily photo of the day manager
Holiday theme scheduler system
Improved commenting controls
Advanced RSS & XML Sitemap management for stories
and more...

So check out the site now at the Search Engine Roundtable, heck, maybe you'll learn an SEO tip or two during your visit.
