Today’s tip is going to be short, sweet and open ended. To really dig into SEO, get your hands dirty, and ultimately understand the working of organic search engine optimization; you must read SEO blogs and participate in forums for at least 1 hour per day.
My favorite SEO blogs are (I’m only gonna name four cause I want people to add their fav’s in the comments):
Search Engine Roundtable
Small Business SEM
SEO Book
SEO Theory
What are your favorite SEO Blogs and SEO Forums?
Please list them in the comments below, and don’t forget to add your own blog (yes, we DoFollow links!).

My favorite SEO news sources are: searchengienland.com and searchengjinejournal.com
SEObytheSea.com and Huomah.com are great sources for keeping up on search engine patents and the latest in algorithm development.
Of course http://www.searchandsocial.com/seo-blog/ and http://www.jordankasteler.com/utah-seo-pro-blog/ and http://www.imbroadcast.com/blog/ are all good resources too

Also, I’d like to add, if you run an SEO agency or have employees who you want to be the best they can be at SEO … actually LET them have 1 to 2 hours per day to read and participate on blogs and forums. It will be well worth the time and goes with the territory.
[Reply]
My favorite forum that goes a good bit wider than just SEO is Cre8asite Forums and perhaps I can mention one of my blogs that focuses on Internet Marketing including SEO and that is BPWrap.

If I only had one it would have to be Aaron Wall’s SEO Book. Not only a good thinker, but he conveys it in a way that is understandable by all.
Dan Perry’s last incredible blog post..Yahoo and the Facebook Searchmonkey App
[Reply]
I always enjoy Blogstorm and the Hobo SEO blog. Patrick & Shaun produce some great articles.
[Reply]
Aaron Wall - http://www.seobook.com is a must for anyone wanting to get into SEO.
http://www.twitter.com - and follow all the SEO masters and click on the links they share that interest you - probably the best way to sift through all the crap that would normally waste your time.

My top SEO blogs ranked according to how much time I spend on them:
(1) Yoast.com - I am surprised that Joost de Valk doesn’t get more visibility when it comes to SEO. It’s really nice to have both a marketing and technical view point on SEO
(2) CourtneyTuttle.com - Even though Court hasn’t updated his blog since September he still remains my #2 choice. His content is timeless and it was his advice that really gave me the foundation I needed to start making decent money on the web with SEO and affiliate marketing.
(3) TheKeywordAcademy.com - This blog is where both Courtney Tuttle and his friend Mark continue to blog. Again, I have an affinity with these guys because they cut through all the noise and show you how to get it done.
(4) SEOBlackHat.com - I think the name alone scares people away but Quadzilla really helps you think outside of the box. I’ve learned to be successful in the SEO that this is a must. I try to just see how I can make it white hat.
(5) NewspaperGirl.com - I have to give a plug for longtime friend Janet Meiners. She opened my eyes many years ago to the power of using wordpress for SEO. She also has a gift for SEO-ing press releases (she also IM-ed me this post).

Loren,
My altogether favorite search blog is Andrew Shotland’s . It is a niche, of course, but Andrew’s sense of humor and discretion by not overwhelming subscribers with “nonsense posts” make me look forward to opening it every time.
