There is nothing more useful than getting your hands on a guide coming straight from an expert and this is exactly what you can do with Google’s new SEO Starter Guide.

Brandon Falls from the Google Search Quality Team explains why the guide was written:

“Webmasters often ask us at conferences or in the Webmaster Help Group, “What are some simple ways that I can improve my website’s performance in Google?” There are lots of possible answers to this question, and a wealth of search engine optimization information on the web, so much that it can be intimidating for newer webmasters or those unfamiliar with the topic. We thought it’d be useful to create a compact guide that lists some best practices that teams within Google and external webmasters alike can follow that could improve their sites’ crawlability and indexing.”

Apparently some of the best practices in this guide are also used by Google for its own sites.

The guide is geared toward webmasters and business owners who need basic training in SEO and covers topics including:

• Page Titles

• Description Meta Tag

• URL Structure

• Site Navigation

• Creating Quality Content

• Anchor Text

• Heading Tags (H1s, H2s, etc.)

So, now I bet you wan to know how you can get your hand on this guide, don’t you?
