In a bit of saddening news, last week, the SEO industry has lost on if its own. Dana Lookadoo, an SEO Consultant, Online Marketer, and founder of Yo! Yo! SEO, died early last week after a long a battle with injuries that she sustained in a cycling accident back in November of 2013.
The news was shred in a private Facebook group by her husband, Ed, Thursday night. Although she was always in pain, due to her difficult rehabilitation, Dana still managed to share updates with everybody, making her an inspiration to everybody who read them.
Dana was a regular in the SEO conference circuit, both as an attendee, as well as a speaker at a number of SEO conferences.
There has been an outpouring of messages on Twitter about Dana, showing us that even after death, a person can still bring us together.
An entire industry grieves tonight. I pray for you all my friends. @lookadoo was the most amazing person full of true love & acceptance.
