The results are in for Search Engine Journal's 2007 Search Blogs Awards. This is SEJ's third installment of this contest in which they nominated the best of the best in 18 separate categories.

I had announced last week that we were nominated as one of the top ten SEO blogs which I think is an honor in and of itself. We didn't win the number one spot in that category which is justifiable as there were much better SEO sites we were contending with.

With no further ado, here is a list of the winners. Congratulations to all!
