I would like to know the person who is most respected for search engine optimization in the US and also who holds this status in your eyes in the UK.

Obviously this is your own personal opinion so if you like you can give me a list of say the top five or ten experts you know of. Please, I’m only interested in people’s names not companies or brands.
Thanks

I am looking to make a career in SEO and I was wondering what would be the best way to start learning SEO.

smassena asked:


I’ve tried marketing both online and off for years.I hear about people making a good living selling online. I’ve tried the :Affiliated Programs” with no success. I’ve offered prces below wholesale on occasion but I still get very little hits and little sale.

I’ve tried giving some products practically away. Still my hits are low. I’ve tried some email and search engine marketing with little success.

II am not one to give up. I have recently opened a brand new online store. If anyone out there have used a proven marketing concept that is reasonable in cost and is getting a lot of online visitors come to their web store as a result and is having a tremendous success, please be kind enough to share your secrets with me. I would really appreciate it.

From: Frustrated web store owner.

Bruno asked:


Having unsuccessfully tried to make some money out of blogging before, now I am seeking your expert guidance and instructions on how exactly to set up a blog. Here I specifically mean the exact instructions on selecting the right keywords, how to set up the AdSense ads the right way, content, html linking, tagging and all the basic SEO techniques necessary for me to start making some money.
Well, I believe that the only reason why I didn’t make any money before is obviously because I haven’t done some of the above mentioned things properly.
Many Thanks.

Avinash asked:


I wonder if there are websites which can pay me to write articles for them. I have a blog, but I’m awful at SEO, so I don’t earn enough. Any suggestions?

razz4900 asked:


As the saying use to go, “You get what you pay for.” What has happened to those days? I ask cause it seems like people now a days want to make $$$ but not spend it. Another member of digitalpointforums asked me to write them an article conisting of 1500 words. They needed this article to be completed within 24 hours. However, they are ONLY willing to pay $20.00! Sorry but No can do! For those many words, research to be completed and time, try over $200 as a fair price.

greg29 asked:


Hello I am looking for any ideas on getting a new job track, I have held various jobs related to web development over the past 5 years and I have had enough of the random skillsets required for each position.

I am looking to indirectly keep some of my skills (web design, css/asp.net coding) and possibly turn into a more prominent role within and organization’s marketing or IT team.

What would be some various job titles or jobs that would fit what I am looking for? My ideas are as follows:

- Interactive Ad Sales
- Online Marketing
- SEO/SEM/PPC
- E-commerce Manager
- Web Manager
- Marketing Manager
- etc.

Like I stated above, I am NOT looking to be a web designer or a web programmer for my day job, but something closely related that could use my skillset indirectly.

Any thoughts
