Preface

About This Book

As I sat down to write this book, I realized there were many things to consider. I wanted to write a book to help people from many different disciplines enact SEO programs effectively. My goal was to educate both developers and marketers on the most important things to consider when improving search dominance.

If you’ve never really heard of SEO and have no marketing or technical experience, then you may want to read other awesome O’Reilly books on these topics first.

My career has been spent in web development, design, interpreting analytics, and practicing SEO. This hybrid nature has resulted in a more technical search marketing book than many others out there on the market. I’m not going to tell you how to write good content; I’m going to help you optimize for what search engine relevancy truly means.

This book is ideal for marketing teams who need to be hybrids and cover more ground in terms of understanding search. Publicly traded companies and larger companies and startups alike will benefit from the SEO frameworks I’ve laid out.
