Top 7 websites to teach yourself SEO
Design Aid provides all it's charity websites hosted on a Heart Internet resellers account the little gem of info and links to SEO resources below was in their latest newsletter and I thought it was worth sharing with others on my blog.
So, here are some words and links from Matthew...
"When I first got into online marketing many moons ago, my main focus was on paid search (Google AdWords et al) and my job revolved around creating campaigns, bids, clicks, conversions etc however, although it wasn’t part of my job at that time, I found SEO equally as interesting and wanted to learn more. Without any on the job experiences to learn from I went looking online for websites that would help me, and they did. Since then SEO has become part of my job in a couple of positions and I can honestly say the following websites were a big reason why I knew enough about the subject to be able to work in that field.
Whether you are a complete beginner or you an SEO master, these sites have enough of a back catalogue and regular new information to keep you going for months!
1. http://www.seomoz.org/blog: Starting as an SEO agency they have used their blog to position themselves as a global resource for the industry
2. http://www.seobook.com/blog: A mix of practical advice, industry news and personal opinion
3. http://searchengineland.com/columns/: one of my favourite sites, the columns section covers all aspects of search marketing
4. http://searchenginewatch.com/sew_archive_experts&type=sew_experts/sem-101&issue=2009: Really good introductory articles to various aspects of online marketing
5. http://www.wolf-howl.com: This site has been around for years and it mixes advice with commentary and personal opinion
6. http://econsultancy.com/blog: The volume of posts each day can be a bit too much and some articles don’t go in to a lot of detail, but the percentage that do hit the money make it worth it.
7. http://www.toprankblog.com/: Good traditional ‘how to’ blog with some great advice for all levels of knowledge
These are the sites that I relied on to get me up to speed early on and the ones I still read each week, and I’m sure many have your own, so if you’d like to share them leave a comment and link below…
