Not that Dana hasn't been involved with seo for awhile but women like Jill and Kim have been promoting seo in forums and such for a much longer time. Nevertheless they all have my utmost respect and admiration since I'm all about search marketing and they are leaders in the industry. They're all my Godmothers!

As 2-term president of SEMPO, Dana has been quoted in a large variety of mainstream media and has been a very dynamic and respected speaker invited to countless marketing conferences to introduce SEM to the world. (Barbara has held that position in the first year and she did a great job kicking the organization off) So if Godmother connotates the same type of Danny Sullivan-type of response, Dana is the clear winner in my opinion. (Sorry to the rest of my friends on this list. :) ) Although I agree that many of the women presented in this list are very powerful people when it comes to SEM, probably the most influential when it comes to Search being presented to the “outside world” would be Dana Todd.

Marissa deals with product release AND she's far too cute - no good! So, left with Jill and Barbara... Jill has been specializing in SEO since 1997, Barb since 1996....oohhh...very close.... Hmmm
