SEO firm takes $1.25M in funding

This is fairly big news in the SEO world. I first read it yesterday from Andy Beal's Gooruze blog post.

SEOmoz (an SEO) firm has accepted 1.25M in funding. The Founder wrote a fairly personal and emotional blog post about it here. I must admit I only skimmed through his blog post and am not sure why he feels emotional about it, maybe he feels as though he is not sharing the wealth? Maybe he feels as though he was deceiving people close to him while private discussions were going on? I am not sure, you will have to read it for yourself.

Now TechCrunch has also picked it up here.
