5,000 Readers Milestone Giving Away 2x The SEO Book

Posted · Category: Announcement

Building a successful and popular website is very difficult, because we need a well-designed website with a lot of unique and excellent contents. And most importantly, we need to be friend with search engines as well, so that they can bring us some new visitors everyday. This is what we called “Search Engine Optimation” (SEO). We can hire some SEO experts to do that for us, however, it would be really expensive. Quality SEO service can cost you $1,000 – $30,000 every year. If we would like to reduce the cost, we can learn SEO by ourselves.

There is a book called “The SEO Book”, I think most of us will be very familiar with this amazing book. “The SEO Book” is one of the best SEO books in the internet. Since 2004, there are over 10,000 SEO professionals have learned SEO by reading “The SEO Book”. It is an ebook with 328 pages available for only $79. And also, you can receive free lifetime updates to the SEO Book.
