Getting ranked for your chosen keywords can take a good deal of work, but it's simple. As long as you're open to trying a few new things and applying what you learn, you can dramatically improve your search engine rankings and start benefiting from attracting tons of hungry buyers to your website.

This year's SEO Made Simple Guide has more powerful techniques than ever before. The book has been fully updated to take advantage of Google's latest algorithm changes. In particular, I've updated the guide to reveal proven local optimization strategies which are essential for doing business online. Whether you have a physical store or simply sell products online, more individuals than ever are using mobile devices and relying on local search to find what they're looking for.

What are you waiting for? Take a small risk and take the first step - you will be amazed at what you can accomplish throughout this journey!

I'm really excited about the latest edition of SEO Made Simple. This book is ideal for anyone looking to improve the search engine optimization of their website, blog, or podcast website. With SEO Made Simple, beginner and advanced practitioners learn effective strategies for improving website ranking, getting more digital assets to show in search results, and discover powerful secrets for improving online reputation.

If you're looking for a book that not only tells you what needs to be done but how to do it, SEO Made Simple is the book for you. Other guides provide general information but to succeed online, you need specific details on what techniques to apply and how to apply them. Improve your website ranking with these powerful search engine optimization strategies and techniques.

SEO can often seem complex unless you have a guide. In this book, I show you step-by-step how to navigate the world of search engine optimization. In addition, you'll find helpful recommended resources to minimize the time required to do keyword research, on page optimization, and off page optimization. Learn SEO from the experts.

This is a fantastic book. Before reading I knew nothing about SEO. This shows you what to do and how to do it. I heard Mike speak at a recent event and learned more in one hour that some of the "gurus" could probably teach you in a life time. The author gives you the information you need without talking down to you and best of all, its very actionable. Looking forward to applying these amazing techniques.

I'm new to SEO and was looking for a book that could provide an introduction along with specific techniques. It provided a good foundation and now I'm much more knowledgeable on the different ways to implement SEO.

I'm reserving judgement until I find out if I'm going to be Westfield's next social media/web manager.

This book came out in 2009. Sadly, most of the information is out of date by now in terms of SEO. I recommend checking out other books, though as a quick refresher, this one might be okay.

dated and very basic. If you are approaching SEO for the first time, then this book may be the first to blow through to warm up on the topic.
