Seo its not a Simple theaory, need more research and Experements, you need to Monitor / study search engine behaviors,etc... I recommend This site, more usefull seo tips available here.. http://www.learnseolive.com www.seobook.com www.learnseotips.com
The general idea behind it is to make it easy for search engines to find your site, and to understand what it's about. Start by reading round the forum, regard everything you read with a little caution, look at seomoz, search engine land, sphinn.com, google webmaster blog - and if you find 3 opinions on anything that agree with each other - hold onto that nugget with all your might!
