A couple of months ago I had a wonderful day — I was the undisputed 2nd Sexiest Man in SEO. Not only that I was the first result for Sexiest Man in Search, which is more of an accomplishment considering that there are 29 times the number of results and the search for the sexiest man in the world to compete with.

But last week Nick Berliner challenged me for the title. Fine, let’s give all the contenders there due.
Carlos del Rio: Putting the sexy sizzle in SEO

Sexy Points: Great tan, big smile, sense of humor, geek chic glasses, and obviously humble about the huge amount of sexy he brings to the SEO world.
Man Points: Has a beard, has had surgery because of a wresting injury, has a back tattoo of a monster truck punching a bear with a mustache.
Nick Berliner: The vocal challenger
Sexy Points: Geek chic glasses, has had surgery because of a football injury, and piercing eyes.
Man Points: He is tall.
Peter Newsome: The foreigner.

Sexy Points: Faux-hawk, geek chic glasses (I see a trend), and a big smile.
Man Point: He is Australian.
Danny Sullivan (in a girls tank top): The Veteran (in a girls tank top)

Sexy Points: Amazing fashion sense, industry leader, and a sense of humor.
Man Points: He is a dad.
You be the judge.
Wow! The men of SEO are pretty geeky. Oh well, at least we are surrounded by beautiful intelligent women. By my count I win with 5 sexy points and 3 man points — but you be the judge.

Obviously, you haven’t seen Carlos in a photobooth like I have (WHILE discussing the best way to push a photobooth SEO Campaign). Definitely the hands-down winner.
My vote goes for Carlos, sheerly for having a photo without someone else’s elbow in it. Although my count Danny Sullivan gets another man point added and immediately deducted for the tank top.
I find it absurd that Pat Sexton is not included on this list.
Freaking. Hilarious. There’s something to be said for the nerd-chic aesthetic
Yes you are! LOL! Very Cute! I want to be optimized for hottest chic in SEO!
Amazing, Big C…why is everyone so mad about that dude’s elbow in my pic? The Sullivan picture is unsettling to say the least…
I think everyone focuses on the the elbow because you actually had a choice of the picture used.
@david - I’m sure that pat finds it absurd also. But he wasn’t on the first page on Google so he was relegated to write ins.
