Introduction Thread #5

Thanks for free tools and and add-ons to Firefox. I've learned more here in 1 hour than in an all day workshop that I attended last week. This is great site Aaron. I'm a technology consultant and I need to expand skills to improve firm's website and blog. Maybe I will be able to add these skills to consulting practice.

I'm a business owner with w programmer husband who keeps saying I can learn everything I need to know and not hire people for simple stuff. Hmmm..... Well, here is my first stab at trying to lean how to do keyword research. Thanks for the Tools so far, and can't wait to get started!

I have already gained much knowledge since signing up. I launched our website less than six months ago and have been evaluating the best way and most affordable way to increase our exposure. Being a System Analyst I think I'm realizing that the best answer is to gain as much knowledge as possible and then determine what areas to get assistance. I look forward to learning from these resources.

Hi. I'm just new to SEO, at least for the bigger picture of it. This website looks like the perfect place to learn from, as I can't really afford a SEO course. I look forward to learning SEO at 360 degrees. :)

Hi All :)

My name's Mike, 23 year's old from Australia. I started my quest a few years ago to start an online business but gave up. Am hoping to restart this quest again and hope to learn a lot of useful ways to help achieve that goal through this site :)

Many thanks for the tools so far!

Regards

Mike

but was disappointed. I don't know if we are just hard to SEO or if I was scammed. :)

First, let me say to all my fellow US Military Veterans around the World, have a very enjoyable and relaxing Memorial Day Weekend in the USA. You certainly have earned the right to do so. For those of you not a Veteran,
please take the time to honor past and present Veterans this coming weekend.

Second, Aaron as a new member to SEO Book and your great Website I look forward to learning as much as I can about the Internet Marketing business and networking with others.

Thanks for offering so much to help others.

My dad introduced me to all this interesting stuff, I feel like this is way better than school.

Glad you are finding the material interesting! :)

This site is really helpful. I co-own a video production business that does wonderful work, but we need to get the word out. We so appreciate your tools.

I'm an aspiring uISV with knowledge in music and software. This site has already transformed the way I think about my online presence. I love the wealth of insights on general SEO strategy, keyword research and page optimizations, as well as Aaron's blunt criticisms of Google.

I hope to continue learning here and to get know some of the intelligent people I see writing articles.

I was a almost killed in February by a drunk driver. Since that time, in order to take car of my family means I need to take charge. Years of development and failures has made me want to take over business and run it my way.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

I plan on going 0-60 in no time flat.

I am new to the site. I have always wanted to work for myself and would like any tips which will help me be successful in this venture. I know that once I get the necessary tools and advice to grow my new business I will be successful. My family and I will be able to live a comfortable life. I have looked around the site and have already seen some useful hints and tips. I know Aaron will guide me to success.

Hi! I'm Tasman, a web developer from Sydney, Australia.

The penny dropped a few years back: what's the point of building great sites unless they have lots of visitors? I started to study and apply SEO back then.

I'm here to continue to deepen my SEO skills!

When I'm not designing or coding, I'm writing about web development at Smart Web Developer or about Macs at Mac Crazy.

Aaron, thanks for great tools. I've been using SEO for Firefox for a year and I'm ... addicted to it. :-)

p.s. Compliments to your site designer. For me, SEO Book has the best look and most recognizable branding in the SEO Community.

Welcome to the site tazmund, glad you are finding the tools and site helpful! Thanks for the compliment on the new site design :)

Hi, Everyone it's great be aboard.

Steven Anderson your new friend @ http://1mobo.com

Hi Everyone, I'm a web designer / developer from Dublin, Ireland. Love SEOBook, it opened my eyes to the fact that you can't create a well performing page without strong SEO knowledge. Filling this gap now with your help :o).

Hi, I'm an Australian web developer, specialising in HTML and CSS (and teaching myself PHP). I already have a bit of experience in SEO, but it is more from learning fragments from many different resources, and a lot of what I have learned contradicts other things I have learned about SEO, so I'm hoping your site can help me gather a more cohesive understanding of what to do and what not to do.

Welcome aboard Matt! Just about all the info we put out is based on actual experience (years and years of experience) rather than hypothesis's or theories :) I hope you find the content helpful!

Hey everyone. My names Will Gordon...i'm new to the site and working to learn as much as possible. I am building a business on the web and doing some outsourcing for seo work via odesk, but I've become fascinated with the world of SEO and really want to make sure I'm taking advantage of everything I can to promote my business online--this site has been great and getting alot of value from it so appreciate it!!!

-Will

My job is having me do SEO, it is completely new to me since my background is in Software Engineering so even most web development is new to me. Your toolbar is easy to use, gives great information and has set me up for great learning and implementation of ideas that should help out my site. This is a very time consuming effort but it is fun and interesting so I am really enjoying it. Thank you for all your hard work, dedication and of course free tools to help people like me get along our way in this field.

Hello everyone, my name is Conrad. Thanks for the SEO tools! I'm a marketing manager for a real estate company and we're looking to do more of our internet marketing and SEO in house so I'm looking forward to learning!

welcome to the site Conrad :)

Hi,
My name is Akash and I am a student pursuing my engineering in Information Techonology. SEO is my hobby and love reading and being updated about SEO. I have been a follower of this site and its blog since 2007 and I really want to thank Aaron for creating this wonderful resource I have learnt a lot from this site and hope will continue to do so.

Hi!
I'm an SEO optimizer and find this site very useful and helpful on my every day work.
Thanks for all the great tools.

Thanks for the kind words SanSepe. Glad to hear that the tools help you out! :)

I'm very excited to learn all I can

Hi, My name is Shelly. I have a website but have taken a long time to learn how the IM works. When I first started,
I couldn't remember how to cut and paste. Now I have improved tremendously. Thanks for the free tools. Learning has been an expensive lesson.

Hi I'm Mike Pedersen and I've been making a living online for 10 years now, but now want to really ramp up my SEO to get higher rankings and better conversions, so glad to be here.

Hi Mike! Glad to see you here...Enjoy the info and the tools :)

I'm Kioko, a sometimes failing, always hopeful blogger on the side. My day job is user / customer experience, which entails interface design, business analysis and SEO among other things. I'm working on a digital media marketing certificate and was introduced to these tools during a lecture. Looking forward to using them as part of class, work, and blog.

welcome to the site Kioko :)

Talk about being a newby! I am totally new to all this, but I really enjoy what I have learn t so far. I always wanted to do something like this, but never got down to it. Now I need to do it, not just because I want to. I guess that might be a good thing, but all the info can be overwhelming sometimes. I am glad to see this kind of communication and personal involvement. It makes me feel safer to know it doesn't look like another scam, trying to get money from me even before I even made any. I hope you would be patient while I am learning, but I am willing to give my very best shot.

Welcome to SeoBook jacoalberts! We hope you find the information helpful and useful! Just remember, take it one step at a time..Rome wasn't built in a day and neither was Google ;)

Hi everyone, I'm Bill from Surprise AZ. I work with small businesses to make online marketing profitable. Thanks so much for the tools, Aaron, surely appreciated.

Hello Everyone! My name is James Hall and I am a graduate student at Full Sail University studying Internet Marketing.

I am the author of 1001 Ways to Market Your Books and webmaster at BookMarket.com. I teach authors how to market online and offline.

I turned 55 this year. I was pushed into retirement from employer 2 years ago after 30 years of service. I've always been fascinated with the internet since it first started. But never had time to study the ins and outs. Now, I received a degree in web development and I want to learn the marketing aspect of website design. My son has been in internet marketing for over 10 years and I'm joining him to pursue a second career. One's never too old to learn something new. And I'm really devouring any information I can get my hands on. I found SEOBOOK on Mozilla and here I am signed up to read any information that you provide. Best of luck to all.

I am new here.This is a great site.I hope I will get the best of support on my SEO needs.Thank you.

hi, I am starting a new website and would like to know more about SEO.

Hi,
I am launching a commertial writing practice and need SEO to improve the ranking of my website.

My name is Laura :) and I recently launched a new classified ads website (pinposts.com) using WordPress. Through testing phase I have been using a plug in called All In One Seo Pack (free version), but it doesn't seem to be working, so I thought I would research more about Seo ect...when I came across your site. What little bit I have read has been informative, and I can't wait to start using the free tools you have provided, Thanks for these!! I'm looking forward to seeing results of all this knowledge.

Says hello to everybody! SEO's a new stuff for me, hope this site would be a great help.

I am a furniture maker and trying to make sense out of the information about my website-

I'm a full time Internet marketer based in Salt Lake City. I'm always looking to learn more about SEO. This is my site: http://wangsgard.com

Hello, Aaron. Thank you for putting this together. I've been learning web building (by hand) for the last year, taking courses through eclasses.org. and have been looking for information I can use for learning SEO on my own. I found a site that recommended this plugin for FF. So far, it looks like I can learn alot here. Again, thanks!

Thanks for the kind words SageCreekWebDesign, glad you are finding the free tools helpful!!

My name is Don. I'm new to the internet marketing world. Thanks for welcoming me!

Kia ora (greetings). My name is Turoa Chadwick. got into Internet Webmaster stuff about 10 years ago, back when the latest and greatest was FrontPage, and before ADSL reached New Zealand. Been out of it for the last 8 years, but getting back into it now.

Hi, my name is Eddie, thanks for accepting me, in hope to give more guidance

Site looks extremely comprehensive almost overwhelming. Looking forward to digging in.

FireFox just auto downloaded version 7.0, which is saying that the Rank Checker plug in is not compatible. Do you have plans to upgrade the add-on for FireFox 7.0?

Thanks,

Phil

FireFox just auto downloaded version 7.0, which is saying that the Rank Checker plug in is not compatible. Do you have plans to upgrade the add-on for FireFox 7.0?

Thanks,

I LOVED the 2 days that Rank Checker worked on my Firefox - before it auto upgraded.

The BEST ranking checker of anything out there - by a long shot!

Phil

hi phwhitley :) glad you like rank checker, since FF 7 is a beta release it isn't fully supported yet. If you are on FF to receive their latest developer builds (aurora's and beta's) then you will see some issues with extension compatibility. I'd suggest going back to the latest public release (6) if you want to utilize the tool.

I am new and checking out the free tools and seeing what SEOBook has to offer.

Just signed up. Hi from Perth, Western Australia, thanks to the SEOBook team and good luck everyone with your SEO. I'm itching to check out the tools. I've been in and out of IT for over 30yrs, since the late 70's programming cobol (yeah punched cards), pascal, DEC10 assembler, basic (when it was basic :-), etc., ahh them were the days. Love learning new stuff, but if anyone wants a bit of historical perspective or local perspective (Perth) please drop me a line.

Aaron thank you so much for all this vital information and the training that with it. I know that this help help me succeed. Again, thank you!

Brand new to the site. Just wanted to say hello and thank the staff for creating such a wonderful site.

Coach

Hi SEO Book.com people! Just want to say thanks to the SEO tips you have been sending to me. Although my head is spinning from all those new stuffs (you see I`m just a newbie), I can still grasp the concept you are talking about. Takes a while before they penetrate into the deepest part of my grey matters and get processed so that I can understand. Hahaha....again, thanks you guys!

Hi everyone, Reggie here. This is my first time doing SEO so I'm trying to learn as much as I can. I wonder if the tools here work as well for google japan and yahoo japan? I doing SEO in Japan, and it seems the keyword suggest tool doesn't work on Japanese characters. Also, is it possible for the rank checker tool to display results from google.co.jp and yahoo.co.jp? I'll read the tips here and see if I can apply them in Japan. Thanks again

Hi everyone,

I'm new here.
SEO is mean experiment too. The main rule is no rules forever! :)
In fact any advice is balanced with the very own experiences.
Common sens is the first rule.
I want also to give not only to take from this site.
But more we speak about SEO then SEO will change it self.
Because top 10 is always for ten people - ten sites!!
And the score of a site still remain the same if the site is not changed.
Worst, the score site can decrease.

So, the tips of the day for you is: keep in your mind (also on site) the first sentence after body tag!

Best whises,
Eugen

Hi I am dirama. Looking forward to learning SEO.

Hi I'm Jo, I'm not really a webmaster, I'm trying to help a friend of mine to improve her website's Google ranking, so I'm hoping to pick up some good tips on here. I was told by a friend that this is the place to come!

Hi everybody, I'm a relatively newbi, overwhelmed by the amount of info. Thanks for the tools, they are great. Look forward to learn a lot and be able to afford lots of training

Hi everyone, i'm a seo worker from vtrendtech.com, i believe seobook.com is the prefect website for learning SEO.

Hi People : )
I'm a work from home mother of 4 Virtual Assistant/Internet Marketer and just loving all these new tools, gadgets and gizmo's. As a previous Lecturer in Computing Business (end user) with a passion for technology, I've been glued to the computer for literally 18 hrs a day. Its so nice that my kids are grown and they are computer geeks aswell in some form or another. Thanks for the tools so far! Just one little request Aaron, I loved the introductory video's on the tools, very helpful, but is it at all possible to have a follow up video with more information or details on the SEOBOOK toolbar buttons and SEO 4 Firefox? Expansion on these utuilities would be fantastic. If there is already followup explanatory tutorials somewhere, my apologies as I haven't seen them as yet. Thanks again !

Thanks for providing the free tools, the toolbar is top notch. I'm just starting to do SEO work now for my new employer and really appreciate all the support you provide through the site.

Thanks and keep up the excellent work

I'm Tom, a small business owner from the UK looking to implement SEO in-house to increase exposure over the coming months. I am keen to get to grips with SEO and to learn best practices and white hat methods from the beginning, to start as I mean to go on.

Thank you very much for the free tools. It's great that there are video tutorials to go with them. Whilst video tutorials aren't always appropriate for all types of information, in the past I have always found them very useful when getting to grips fast with new concepts and getting good with more complex software.

I am looking forward to a thorough understanding of SEO and I am really enjoying the 7 day course, but at this rate it may end up being the one day course!

I hope I can contribute in the forums and help others also,
Thank you for the excellent SEO resources.

welcome to the site tom and best of luck!!

Hi all!

I am new to SEO and thrilled to be part of this community. I found out about it when i was doing some research on building niche websites. I have never built a website or online business before but am eager to learn. Seems like I should start with the 7 day introductory series. Thanks Aaron!

I'm really thankful to have come across this site. I am labeled "Marketing Head" for more than 2 years now and have been working on internet marketing ever since (especially SEO). I still feel very inadequate - and by all means I really don't know if I am indeed. I really loved the posts and Aaron Wall intensely inspires me to improve my blog writing style (first and foremost). Anyways, now's the time to start taking an internet marketing class more seriously (by checking out this site regularly). Really thankful to everyone and I hope to learn more from everything here. More power!

Hi I'm from a copywriter for an advertising agency and a blogger as well. I'm so glad I stumbled upon this site. It's really a great help for my field of work. Thanks! ;p

Hello I'm Rob.

Hi Rob! Welcome aboard ;)

I started searching analysis tools already several months ago to start a business online but do not find a tool like SEO. I hope this tool will be useful to help achieve the goal of placing my online business in the top ten rankings in google. Thank's

Hi All,
I'm Zul from Malaysia, still new in Internet Marketing and absolutely *learning from scratch*.
What I can see over here, my journey still far away to go. The more I've gone through, the less knowledge I became as Seobook drive me with curiosity to keep continue clicking on the *blue* text link. It will take for a little while for me to pick them up, but I will go for it!

Thanks

Hello SEO People.
Been online since 1999 - vaious websites - all based on same stem name. Do not have much of a problem ranking on first page for most anything I wish to publish.... However!!!! I seem to be rubbish at monetizing! I'm one of the people, (the many?), who are banned from Google Adsense (2007) because some nerd clicked on an ad 48 times in a few minutes on my fifth day after publishing. Google's response; "You provide a serious threat to our Adwords subscribers". Despite numerous emails...still banned. Even wrote to Sergey, but was ignored. (Incidentally, I recommended in that letter they get a 'G Phone', [Google Phone], to enable them to tie-in their ad subscribers to text messages and GPS....Guess who just bought Motorola?)

Well, it's nice to be here and I am looking forward to interacting with anyone who wishes to.

I'm in the UK
Cheers,
Ian

Hi all, I'm Kay and I've been in Internet marketing for awhile but new to SEO. Thanks for all the info and tools provided, Aaron. There's a lot of confusing stuff out there.

My name is John Dye, and I live in a small village called Gulkana. We are fortunate enough to have DSL and that makes it possible for me to manage my 80 domain names. I'm a mechanic, carpenter and heavy equipment operator which are all seasonal jobs and usually short-lived. I enjoyed doing website development but I need to learn how to monetize them better and look forward to using SEOBOOK to help drive traffic to my sites. Thank you Aaron and Associates for all the cool tools and information. I look forward to learning about search engines.

Hello Masters !
I am a student and like to explore things which I don't know. SEO has fascinated me immensely and I am and will keep learning !!
Hope to be your best student Masters !! :)

See yah around!

I have several websites that belong to very competitive niches; Worthessays and Muva. Ranking highest in these niches has been very difficult even after trying numerous directories, blog commenting and amongst other approaches. If my instincts are right I think SEObook community has a solution for me

I am a content marketer and social media manager for a very small SEO and web design company.

My name is Annemien and I just started working with my mom in her teeny small down products company of 20 years old. One of my many multi tasking responsibilities is getting our brand new website noticed and must say, I am needing all the help I can get! So thumbs up for making the web-life a little (a little? I meant LOADS) easier for us 'dummies' out there!!

hello everyone, just learning the basics of SEO.

... Toma & Annemien. Best of luck with learning SEO! :)

Hi there Aaron,

I actually joined the SEO Book community last September, but forgot to introduce myself at that time. I too am still relatively new at SEO and have some questions about how the Google Panda has affected or impacted SEO tactics of late? And I would also like to know what the future holds for SEO, going forward? Thanks, btw, for the free tools and an excellent website! I do plan on taking your paid SEO training course a little later in the year!

Hi all.

I'm a software engineer and java programmer. A few years ago my wife opened a small business and I took care to create a website for her. Now I try to position it with little success but as Winston Churchill said: "Success is the Ability to go from one failure to another With No loss of enthusiasm" so I keep trying.

Hey Aaron, long time graphic designer for print who's making the jump into web design. I started my own company (WeAreCreative.ca) last year and have had lots of inquiries about SEO, so I figured I better get on board. I'm hoping some of your tools will come in handy.
Thanks.

I found an amazing tea line that is really affordable and will be starting a new site offer it to all of my friends on the web at http://ambrosiatea.com So I'm here to improve my SEO skills so that I can let more people no about this wonderful tea.

Great site! I have just entered the world of Niche Marketing and over the last 6 months have been trying to learn and as much and as fast as possible. Like most of us monetizing our sites is what it is all about. Finding SEO Book is a goldmine! I am putting a lot more research in a new site launching soon but this is a link to a starter site I have http://www.ihow-to.com. I welcome comments.

My name is Denis and i am brend new in the SEO. I did start a web site 1 years ago but did not put a lot of hrs on it. This year i will be able to put more into it.

A samll question, is it normal that when i do a research for the ranking checker that my web site is not showing??

Just asking.

Thank You

Denis

Anyway, thank for all these fantastic resources!

I love SEO!!! and Writting!!!

I also like to cultivate and internet persona that is much more excited and exciting than my real self, in the hopes that maybe the energy will spill over into meatspace.

My name is Dean and I've been on this site since 2008. Due to busy schedule at work, left and right deadlines - I have only registered today. That's pretty crazy, right? Though, it's better late than never and I'm still looking forward to having great time here. I've heard loads of good feedback about this site and I can't wait to explore it myself.

Hi! I'm an SEO newbie working on improving my travel-as-a-lifestyle site, LocationLiberated.com. I'm thankful to have found this site early on thanks to NomadicMatt.com!

i'm murli, newbie to this seo things which i've heard a lot but knows not a thing about it... hoping to learn something about seo as i'm planning to launch my own website... thx n regards

I think Aaron is teaching us all a lesson right here (engage with your customers!), hopefully everyone is paying attention... I am a micropreneur and owner/co-founder of a 6 y.o. website for educators and have been focusing on SEO for the last 3 years. I had not invested sufficient energy into link building over time, so trying to make up for it after experiencing a rather unpleasant rank drop last year. I live and breathe link building (+ some social sprinkles) these days and strongly suspect I maxed out on free/inexpensive ways to do it. Oh, and I paid Yahoo $299 for express (7-day they say) review back in March and my status is STILL pending, wha?

Hi everybody
The SEO site looks awesome - at present am not able to enrol in SEO but down the track a bit it looks like very impressive training.
Aaron - a special thank you - for allowing me to become a free member and have access to the available downloads - have you had any experience with Webfire ?
I have the same philosophy as you and I certainly hope that I progress enough to join SEO later on

Yes Aaron, I check the directory and the status every couple of weeks. There is a status page available to check on the order and it has been "Pending" for 2 months now (while they take payment for a 7-day review, unbelievable). I don't believe there is a phone # for customer service, one I called directed to go online. I will try to email.
Are you saying none of your clients report this issue? I had googled up a few more cases.
p.s. I think I am going to start my own directory site, seems like a good business model :-)

Any tool that will help make SEO or other processes easier is worth taking a look at. There is something to be said about continuing your edumacation... Keep learning and evaluating always. Best of luck to all of you!

Hi all -

Just joined a few minutes ago.

A bit about me:

A former SEO, was in the business for a number of years BEFORE there was software to implement for SEO and so I did everything by hand. Ran my own telecommunications company and did some SEO consulting work on the side. (My former guarantee: "Earn six times your investment or your money completely refunded!" Never had to provide a refund.

Closed telecommunications company, did other jobs, and now working for a software company that needs SEO desperately. Am at least 10 years out of the game, need to start fresh again.

Cheers from California

Hi, Aaron, everyone.
My core strength is writing but, as the shift in SEO moves more towards content than ever and me being keen to make sure that my content follows best practises, I've been inexplicably drawn into the world of SEO.

I've had some great teachers about content, but now I find the people I'm writing for see me as some sort of SEO guru - and I so not.

Rather than disappoint them and miss out on the chance of expanding my repertoire and reputation, I'm diving in with both feet.

They're size 11s, so watch SEOBook - don't let me squish yer!

Look forward to learning and giving back in whatever way I can.
See you around, no doubt,
