Where to find Essential SEO Resources

The internet is full of advice on search engine optimisation some that is helpful and some that will just confuse you. So where is the best place to get the information you need?

Search engine optimisation is not an exact science so a lot of the information you will encounter will be based on observations that the SEO community have made. Below are just a small selection of good SEO resources for tips and the latest news.

I could start by mentioning all the great website that exist that contain great nuggets of information on search engine optimisation, however a lot of this information is not from an official source so can not be fully trusted. For that reason I would always recommend you search out the official blogs and forums of the search engines. Another great place to find information is from the personal blogs of people who actually work for the search engines. The most famous one these would be Matt Cutt’s website. He regularly offers information and tips on search engine optimisation and how to make your website more SEO friendly.

Getting back to forums the official Google forum is a good place to find and ask for information as the replies are usually from Google employees so you can be assured that the advice given is of good quality.

This advice is really only going to be useful if you are planning to optimise your website yourself or you are planning a career in SEO. This is not a good strategy if you want to learn about SEO to optimise your website yourself. It would be much more cost-effective for you to hire a professional search engine optimisation company to do the work correctly for you. If you feel you can not afford such services then you really should have budgeted for this when you got your website designed. As SEO and website design go hand in hand and without both your online business will find hard to survive.

For SEO services I would try MOU as they will make your website design SEO friendly from the get go and give it the best possible chance of being successful.

If you are a student then I would certainly take advantage of these resources and even try the official Google blog and subscribe the RSS feed to get all the latest information and even set up Google alerts for search engine optimisation and SEO to get all the up to date information.
