It is hard to believe that you can learn SEO when you don't even know what SEO means, isn't it? But you CAN.
"SEO" means "search engine optimization". When you do a search in Google, a whole long list of results turns up. Those at the top of the list have strong search engine optimization. The search engines like that site and that page. Using SEO techniques, you can put yourself at the top of that list.
Basically, SEO says that you need to put your keyword in some very strategic locations so that the search engines can find it and index it.
There is a handy dandy free ebook that I use for my SEO activity: Let's Go Fishing. The book is free, and you can remove yourself from the ezine mailing list any time you want. So it is a win-win.
There is one more step to SEO that most gurus won't tell you about. It is the "long tail" of network marketing. It is fine when someone searches on "health", but honestly neither your site nor mine will ever reach the top ranks for that keyword. There are just too many very, very strong sites already out there that rank for the keyword "health". So we don't even try. What we DO try to rank well for are the hundreds and thousands of searches done on all the "long tail" keywords, like "natural health vitamin", "vitamin D and health".
It is not that difficult to rank well for hundreds of long tail keywords. This is a skill that most people can learn fairly quickly.
So, yes, you CAN indeed by an SEO specialist. Soon. And do it very, very well.
