Re: SEO at your fingertips

This is awesome. You should maybe consider putting all these posts into a downloadble PDF and calling it 

"Site Reference SEO Guide"

Think this is the sort of information the begginer and intermediate SEO's would love.
Great link bait.

Re: SEO at your fingertips

Yeah... I don't think forum threads would make much of a eBook personally because they aren't always completely on target ... there is lots of chit chat as well that folks wouldn't want to dig through IMO...

... besides, I already published an eBook on the topic... Mind you there is a bunch of stuff here that I haven't covered, so this list will be good for the 2008 version.....

Some extra footnotes/tips on prediction and building relevance and creating user satisfaction may be helpfull in the 2008 version. And a section for Noobs that touches on the basics of Universal Search could be helpful.

LOL before you say it, yes I will help.

Oh U can have the US stuff.....

My problem is that it is meant as a guide to the basics for nobs. I am wary of starting to add more complex stuff into it I don't want it to get bloated..... So I might do an intermediate/advanced SEO book, or smaller offerings on various specifics like..

KWP Rsearch and targeting
Link Profile Development
PaIR and Google

etc.....

or simply keep adding to the original ( ie; SEO Book style.. tho it can get bloated)

Not really sure

NOTE; I am ust makin the rounds Charles - I have the info from Bill for playtime... talk soon

I was doing the same. Being the “wanker” that I am I will take the US stuff because there is a area that’s quite untapped and I am going to take it for myself. Have to go for a car ride but I look forward to playtime with Bill and Dave LOL
