I can’t say I’m an uber expert here, and especially since I can’t code CSS for nuts I’m really nowhere just yet. BUT at least I can say I know the basics of it. One would think that it’s mostly just link building, and in my experience I gotta say that it is… But that’s stuff beyond your control. Little things on your websites DO matter.
And folks, it’s much more than just stuffing your entire page with keywords.. You’re defeating the purpose of search engine optimization if you have a website like “the best pink shoe store that sells pink shoes. amazing pink shoes prices and free shipping for pink shoes” or something. You MIGHT rank temporarily, but i guarantee you that you won’t get any sales..
I read a lot of stuff to learn what I did with SEO, and at the same time I was able to learn on the job. But a great resource is Aaron Wall’s SEOBook which is available at SEOBook.com/join for an ALWAYS updated information on SEO. SEOMoz.org also has great articles which you can use to get started.
Good luck to everybody!
