What is the best practical SEO book? - 853 - 05-07-2014 04:31 AM

Can anyone recommend a good hard-copy book for the SEO beginner?

Steve,

When someone asks me for a good book for beginners, I always recommend "Google SEO Starter Guide" at http://www.google.com/webmasters/docs/search-engine-optimization-starter-guide.pdf.

Why?

1) Because it tells you all you need to know about SEO in 32 pages only.
2) Because it's coming from... Google itself.
3) Because it's entirely FREE.

Another excellent, community-acclaimed reading for beginners is Aaron Wall's 160-page "SEO Book" at http://www.seobook.com It's co-authored by 4 highly respected SEO experts, so it's not an individual point of view but an interesting collective work.

Now, if you're like me and really want a hard-copy book to buy, go for the recent "The Art of SEO" at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0596518862/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=theonebuspro-20&linkCode=as2&camp=217145&creative=399381&creativeASIN=0596518862
