Good Morning – Let's try this again - This is actually from a post I made about How to learn SEO on my site and subsequently 'TRIED' to pass it along via this thread; http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=252404 It got way outta control and I felt any USEFULL passing of information got lost in the rantings.. yeeesh Anyways, the entire peice is too long to put here.. and I don't want duplicate content issues... So be sure to read the entire article as it has explainations as to which resources are most valuable in the learning process of SEO. This is merely a list.. the entire article discusses HOW to go about learning.. this is a dummed down - watered down list.
