Learn the SEO Process
| I found that learning about Search Engine Optimization was kind of tough for me, because I didn’t have an idea of what the entire process was like. I did not go through a formal training on SEO; I was more like the “learn as you do” guy. I implemented then tested and tracked; based on the results, I would repeat what worked and avoid what didn’t. Also I tried other methods like using software to automate some tasks and also subscribed to some SEO linking services to see for myself if they really worked. You cannot really call yourself an expert till you’ve tried all solutions. Much like a soldier who’s been battle tested and scarred, I’ve been to many battlefronts.
