Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Tired of reading the same thing over and over
This book sucks. Its hard to believe this lady is a writer. The form is great, but lacking substance, as I'm sick of reading the same material over and over. Get to the point!!! and move on to a new subject. Its really hard to believe this book got published. I guess you can't add the "bible" part to the title unless it looks really long. We'll, your a crappy writer, thanks for wasting too much of my time.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - nothing new here
I had high hopes for this book since it is newly published in 2009, but it's just the same old stuff. In a nutshell, the book just tells us to forget about PHP and Flash and use static HTML if we want to achieve any measure of SEO. That just isn't going to cut it any more. A "Bible" on SEO these days needs to address the fact that website design has become dynamic and graphical. All I see here is that this new edition added alot of general common sense advice without adequately reflecting the major ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Beginners Beware
I'm generally forgiving about the technical oversights, but this book contains a substantial amount of misinformation which is not only mentioned but expounded upon with complementary bad advice.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Misinformation and No Help
This book does not give a lot of specific advice and much of the advice it does give is wrong. Just looking at the author page will tell you why this was written by a professional writer not by someone working on the web.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - SEO Bible? Please ... Biggest Waste of Money
I was looking for new insight ... unfortunately, this book is NOT the place to get it. This doesn't even go over all the basics .... it doesn't sufficiently cover simple topics such as site architecture, keyword density, keyword placement, unique content development, keyword selection, developing title and other meta tags, proper off-site optimization techniques such as link building, page rank ....

Not really sure what this book was about ... but it sure wasn't a 'bible' for SEO.

If ... Read More
