I bring you sad news of the passing of our dear friend and colleague Colm Butterly. Colm passed away suddenly this week at age 47.
Like all who knew him, I am deeply saddened and shocked by this tragic news. The internet marketing community has lost a true gentleman.
If you've kept up with this blog, you know that Colm was a brilliant author and renowned SEO expert. Colm was also a much respected moderator of the Standing Start Profits forum, where he was highly valued and appreciated as a generous mentor. If a tough question was posed, you could be certain that Colm would be one of the first to take up the challenge, always going above and beyond to find a solution.
Colm was among the first at SSP to reach out and offer me his friendship and generous guidance. Look at any forum post made by Colm, and you'll immediately recognize a kind, generous man who was quick to offer positive support, not only with great skill and insight, but also with a warm sense of humor.
I offer my sincerest condolences and prayers for Colm's family, including his wife, Sian, and his young son. I cannot imagine the loss they must feel right now.
His passing is a terrible loss for our community.
We will miss you Colm Butterly. God Bless.
