Monday 29 March 2010

The basics of search engine optimisation (SEO) are now well-known – research your key phrases, optimise your pages and obtain as many links as possible. As the online marketplace gets increasingly competitive, site owners are looking for both the edge in accepted techniques and new methods of online marketing.

This one-day workshop is designed to provide you with the information to take your SEO activities to the next level and leverage the opportunities offered by so-called Web 2.0 sites. You will be expected to understand and be using SEO activities already, such as keyword research, on-page optimisation and link building. The session will give you new techniques to apply to these activities, along with ways to use other websites to your advantage.
