If you want to learn more about SEO, then watch this free SEO tutorial. The tutorial runs about 45 minutes and is broken up into 3 parts. I’ve also compiled the tutorial in text format and created a series of posts for you so you can read it right on the blog in case you’d rather read through it.

Just a note about the tutorial … it covers the basics. It’s created for someone new to SEO or someone who doesn’t have it all down yet. If you’re advanced, and you actually have sites ranking high already, or you’ve already read tons on SEO, it’s probably not for you. I just want to bring this up because I don’t like having my time wasted, and I’m sure you don’t as well. I’ll have more advanced tips, but this video does not contain them.

In this video tutorial, I’ve broken SEO down into 3 major components; keyword research, on-site optimization, and off-site optimization.

Here’s what the tutorial covers:
