About Lee Odden
Nice post about SEO book!
Hi all i want some information about on seo how to spred the page rank to internal pages
PageRank is distributed to internal pages by linking to them.
I've only been in the SEO sphere for about a year now, but I've already seen how much things change in such a short period of time. Some tactics are no longer valid. Some new tactics have popped up. And many valid tactics have shifted in terms of their effectiveness due to changes in search algorithms.
That's why while it's a great idea to read industry books to keep educated, books can't be the only form of education we pursue. Trade shows, networking events, and excellent blogs like the Online Marketing Blog are critical to rounding out your SEO education. Happy New Year!
I agree Josh and thanks for the kudos.
There are foundational & transitory tactics with SEO. Books can be useful to build a base of knowledge upon which to grow through testing. There is no substitute for “rubber hits the road” efforts to plan, optimize and measure to see what works best for a particular web site.
Happy New Year to you!
Absolutely a great SEO book! DO NOT want my clients to find same — it’s that good, eh! Although we Canadians were generally left “out” of the specific mix, I found the tome to be pretty well global in coverage and the tips/points/myth breakers were spot-ON!!!! Well done lads….this one’s on my desk instead of across the office in my bookcase!
