I've been waiting to check this out for a while now. I plan on test driving it soon and providing a detailed review, http://www.organicseoconsultant.com/diy-seo-launches-today/. So far what I have seen of it looks great. I got sick this week so I haven't started my trial with it just yet but I will soon.

]]> Comment on Launch of DIYSEO and why its good for SEO’s by DIYSEO – DIYSEO Review Round-up: Buzz on the DIYSEO.com Launch http://www.patrickgavin.com/2010/04/06/launch-of-diyseo/comment-page-1/#comment-4059 DIYSEO – DIYSEO Review Round-up: Buzz on the DIYSEO.com Launch Thu, 08 Apr 2010 19:20:32 +0000 http://www.patrickgavin.com/?p=200#comment-4059 [...] We expected due to the nature of the product that we would get some criticism when we launched–for two reasons. Firstly, a few SEO consultants might feel threatened that we are “automating” the SEO process. Frankly, prior to our launch we underestimated how many SEO’s would feel this way. One thing we’d like to point out however is that DIYSEO is priced at a $49/month price point and is aimed at small businesses with very basic Web presences–not the usual SEO consultant’s client. We acknowledge that at a certain point–especially in competitive, non-local niches–clients may outgrow DIYSEO and want to spend more time and budget on search engine optimization. At this stage, they would probably hire an SEO or social media consultant. Meanwhile, SEO consultants can benefit from sending clients with “micro” budgets (e.g., less than $1,000 a year) to DIYSEO via our affiliate program. At the end of the day, we believe the SEO ecosystem will support all kinds of services (manual, automated) at various price levels to support different segments of the market… and DIYSEO will have a place in that market! Pat has some more thoughts on how DIYSEO and SEO consultants can mutually benefit on his personal blog.

I tried a couple of redirect strategies including the .htacess file without luck so I ended up just blocking the old paths via robots, not the best approach but it works minus the link juice effect.
