SEO For Dummies

I just wrote this comment about Search Engine Optimization for Dummies by Peter Kent, I thought that maybe people reading this would be interested to read what I wrote.

Last September, I went to Jack Humphrey's 'Authority Summit' in Las Vegas and indeed the emphasis was on Blogging. So much so that I only really fire up Dreamweaver every now and again just to get a bit of code to paste into my blogs, the days of Dreamweaver templates and FTP have seriously gone for me now. I'm not even relying on my hosted stuff either, I'm using free web 2.0 properties and free blogs etc. So what has been the result for me with this? Well, I pay less in hosting and don't have to deal with pushing thousands of pages up by FTP, I can outsource a lot of my work more easily so I work less, I have multiple spots on the first few pages for my chosen keywords which means I am always top and I can push my competition back on to page 2 of Google. Generally life is better now I am blogging (which I can do from my phone!).

The long and short of it is that I am looking forward to reading Peter's SEO For Dummies book, because I have learnt that even if you think you know everything, you dont! Please comment on my blog below if you'd like to add to my conversation.
