Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I don't know about the rest of you out there, but over the years when browsing and looking for information on blogging, website design (and anything else that falls into that "techie category") what I have found is that so many sites and books claiming to be the 'go to experts', are well, quite frankly overwhelming, hard to read and often ridiculously long.
They could very well be the 'go to experts' on blogging and SEO, but for this busy homeschooling mom with ADHD and 3 crazy kidlets running around to keep me on my toes, a huge book or busy site with a lot of fluffy information completely turns me off.
Like many of you, I don't have the time to flip through 300 pages of a book or dig around a massively cluttered up website to find the information that I need. And then of course the kicker is, because I was (and still am) learning about all this, I don't know what it is I need to know! In the past I would never finish a book or go back to a website because I hated that overwhelming, information overloaded feeling so many of them left me with - I couldn't figure out what was relevant and what was fluff and it annoyed me.
I came across Chad Lafarge's book a couple of weeks ago I have to say it is THE book I have been searching for when it comes to this subject and how to navigate it.
Lafarge had me at the introduction:
"...The need addressed by this book is: You have an SEO project, have zero experience and don't have time to read 200 pages of fluff mixed with fact. You may have time for closer to 30 pages of fact and some useful tables. I've made an effort to be as thorough as possible and to provide a solid foundation on which you can build your own SEO successes without burdening you with stacks of padding."
From the personal blogs to the talented home based entrepreneurs and anyone else who wants to make a difference in this world with their website, this book is everything and more when it comes to search engine and web site optimization.
Don't let the fact that it is less than 40 pages fool you, Lafarge titled his book perfectly because this book is EXACTLY what you need now when it comes to your blog/web site and making SEO work in your favour.
Lafarge walks his readers through the whole process by ensuring that his advice is straight to the point. He has brilliantly written it so that it is easy to understand and follow (even for this ADHD mom who is easily bored), and also most importantly, he's designed the book so that it is easy to learn from - the tables and worksheets are some of the best parts of the book in my opinion.
The fact that he has a knack for actually making it all interesting is a bonus too (which if you have read any books on technological information and internet algorithms, you'll know that this is no small feat in and of itself because most of them are hundreds some odd pages of dry boring information).No matter what your purpose online is, SEO is important to your site whether you realize it or not. Even if you don't have a website or blog now, but plan to in the future, even if it is just a blog to document an upcoming trip, or life event, this book can benefit everyone.
I highly recommend it and had no problem giving it 5 stars. It's a great book and worth every penny.
