    The very basics of SEO are quite simple.

    You must produce a page which seeks to best answer the search query entered by the person searching. To do this you simply have to make it clear to Google - Bing etc what your page content is seeking to achieve for the end user and in what context.

    That is the very simplest aspect you need to build upon but that's your basic cornerstone to work from.

    I am pretty sure you should know the basics in SEO otherwise those 600+ posts are useless? Start with reading a few topics here (*use the Search function!). Don't forget to ask questions if you don't know anything. Also, a good idea is to try things and learn yourself too! :)

    Every Google's update let us know that nobody here can tell that he knows SEO. Because it is changing all the time. And posts amount doesn't matter, i think.

    Hii RossCheal,

    I think you start reading Google SEO starter guide which will help you to understand basics as well as all the rules that we have to follow during website promotions. It's great place for starter to learn the basics and I in case if you got any problem in between the guide. Then post your thread here and we will help you to solve that problem.

    I hope we have helped you a little bit.. :)

    You can also read blog posts from Moz and Searchengineland. You can learn a lot of SEO from there. Join discussions and don't hesitate to ask.
