On "The Industry Mourns The Loss Of Nick Wilsdon - Loved By Industry"

Nick Wilsdon's death is a real loss for SEO—twenty-plus years in the industry means he shaped how a lot of people think about search and built genuine relationships that aren't transactional the way most industry connections are. For practitioners who worked with him or learned from him, this lands differently than typical industry news because it's about someone who was actually present and generous in the community. That's rare enough that it's worth acknowledging plainly: the field got smaller yesterday.
