Personal Experiences With Advanced Web Ranking

As a professional SEO Consultant for over 3 years now I have tried a few hundred software tools and services related to all things SEO. My 1st experience with Advanced Web Ranking or AWR was at my college’s business incubator, a fellow entrepreneur was using it to check his rankings. At his day job he managed a team of SEO professionals and that’s the tool he was introduced to while working at that firm. I finally started using the tool my 1st job working for a SEO firm. I was given minimal but adequate training to get the job done. At 1st glace AWR seemed daunting and overly complicated. But as I got into the program and learned how to use I came to rely on its keen user tips and fast user interface.

    1. Ask permission to link, a link back is appreciated but not required. Confirm via email.
    2. If they decide not to link to you, ask permission to link to them still, then send them a thank you note, don’t be surprised when they link to you any way.
    3. highlight what your site has to offer their customers

Search Engine Optimization For Dummies

Loved the Book!! The best thing about Peter Kent’s book, Is his attitude toward clients, the reader, and especially about SEO in general. Its the same attitude that Rachelle Money highlights in her recent interview with Peter Kent the author of “Search Engine Optimization For Dummies“.

Peter doesn’t talk down to anyone in his book, and has a results oriented approach. As mentioned above he realizes that Search Engines have in the past and still do today a ton of traffic that can be sent to your’s or your client’s domains.
