You can build the best designed site on the web, but if no one can find you, it doesn`t matter. You need to master search engine optimization (SEO) to truly get the most out of your sites. In this session, work with an example site to learn how to convert an existing site with zero findability to one that truly ranks among the most popular search engines. Topics include selecting the right keywords and integrating them in your content, developing in-coming links, directory submissions, internal linking, handling meta tags and robots files. Also covers how to create XML and HTML site maps to make it easier for both machines and humans to locate your content.
