These are the 3 best 'beginner' guides in my opinion http://static.googleusercontent.com.../search-engine-optimization-starter-guide.pdf http://www.seomoz.org/article/beginners-guide-to-search-engine-optimization http://www.hobo-web.co.uk/seo/ When you've read, digested and understood them, start with a blog or little ecommerce side-project and experiment, try things out, monitor and analyse. If you're one of the people that 'gets it' (some people just do, some just don't), you can say you're an SEO beginner after 6 months.
Hello Friend, According to my experience start seo of your website , you will learn new things by you.
I’m not sure that reading a few eBooks’ will make you into an expert but you can download some free SEO eBooks’. Happy reading. Thanks Brian
In addition to the resources here: subscribe to plenty of SEO blogs like SEOBook, SEOmoz, Matt Cutts and BlogStorm. Keep a regular eye on forums like this one and WebmasterWorld. SEO is a constantly changing discipline, so its very important that you're absolutely up-to-date. My personal favourite though: learn how the internet works. On-page SEO is often overlooked, and once you're good at that, building links is (technically) easy. SEO is about: (a) technology, (b) lateral thinking and (c) grunt work!
I've seen this post of yours in one forum thread. No, you can't become an SEO expert fast. SEO is a myth, that's how they call it. You can learn ways of SEO, but results takes times and takes a lot of try and error.
Fast and SEO don't really go together, it's a gradual thing. Lay the foundations right, and everything else should follow
What does this even mean? You need to learn how to properly optimize your actual on page content to begin with. After that, it's all about building links the right way. You're not going to become and expert at this overnight, as a lot of it is trial & error to find out what works. You'll get some of the basics from those links above, but I've been doing this for a few years now, and I don't even claim to have it all figured out.
Go through a painful trial and error path. Seriously one will never figure out how G algorithm works by just reading, no matter where you read from.
step 1: Write for the people who will read your material step 2: use canonical urls step 3: Submit a valid sitemap step 4: if using WordPress, don't have both categories and tags in your sitemap. Pick one. step 5: if you write good material then people will link to you so link building is not necessary for a lot of topics. step 6: If your site is a news site then learn about googles news feeds step 7: if your site is a blog then learn about rss step 8: use h1 tags in titles step 9: don't write for the search engines step10: write more good content step 11: write good content on a regular basis Did I say write good content? oh see sig for more details
As ppl above have suggested you what you have to do already. So, what i can say is letting time to help u too mean you will need to spend time as much as you have to find the real result of your SEO work.
Any website you work on needs to met criteria's that play the role of following Search Engine Guidelines. It's not that you will be rewarded for paying for results but the fact that you build relevant links pointing to your website can help your site out. You can't be an SEO expert overnight and expect to turn any site into the top 10 results. You must build it like your building a new house. My suggestion is to read threads here and follow up with blogs like Matt Cutts from Google as mentioned here by carleisenstein
Honestly, it all boils down to this: SEO is an art, not a science. There are many different methods that can achieve the same result. With everything, there are basic foundations which you should probably follow - but beyond that, it is all up to what you do personally that will make or break your SEO efforts. Reading will make you an "expert". Trial and error will make you an expert and an excellent teacher. It just takes time. If you would like to learn some basic stuff, I've put together a list of my own SEO things that I use personally - check out my seo tips.
read. Alot. Then, practice. After 2-3 years with some hard work you could become an expert. PS ...all the answers are in the serps. All of them.
The most important part of SEO which 90% of people do not know properly is on-site optimization. Meta tags, Alt tags, Title tags, Img tags etc.
