I think he wants examples of websites that utilize SEO well. My recommendation would be to search for any major topic, or sub-topic and visit the first few websites in each category. You are bound to find that most sites have had SOME level of search marketing or SEO performed on them.
dRoot is right...but i am looking for really small websites, not ones with too many pages in them (external links apart)...if i want to pack a punch in a small website then how best can i use SEO principles/practices including design layout, tags etc...etc...looking to replicate good examples....
