SEO WordPress Secrets is Super

SEO WordPress Secrets
I’ve purchased my share of info products over the last six months. Two of the most rewarding, in both reading and results, have dealt with SEO (search engine optimization for those of you who are where I was just two months back).
Naomi Dunford’s SEO School is a fantastic product; one of the best e-books I’ve ever read. It takes a complex topic and crumbles it into human language that made me feel as though Naomi was sitting right next to me, cheering at my triumphs and laughing deliriously (with me, not at me, of course) during each of my foibles.
SEO School gave me the rundown, but Michael’s SEO WordPress Secrets taught me to sprint.
For the longest time, I was an avid believer that the strength of my writing would be more than enough to make it spread like a flame crawling across a line of gasoline. Alas, this wasn’t true.
It doesn’t matter how many people are willing to throw down a compliment in the comments. If you’re not showing up in the search engines, you’re keeping yourself hidden from about twelve billion eyes.
I had little to no intention of buying WordPress SEO Secrets. I can’t really even say I was sitting on the fence. I’d learned enough from Naomi’s book to get by, and didn’t really feel like laying it down for yet another how to e-book, but after Eric and I scheduled an hour with Michael, immediately before this baby blog’s launch, I knew his style of straight talk wouldn’t steer me wrong.
It hasn’t.
Since I bought Michael’s program, I’ve been having so much fun with search engine ranking, you’d think there was a control pad attached to the PDF. I’ve been forever fiddling, playing with keywords at every opportunity.
I’ve even started a regular series at Writer Dad where I’ve implemented his strategies. Tagging myself as the “Best Writer on the Net” wasn’t especially difficult, but it was a lot of fun.
These posts have been a lot of fun, generated a warm response, and helped me rank for those key words that will help me take my game to the next level.
4 Reasons Why I love WordPress SEO Content
- Like Naomi, Michael articulates difficult concepts in a manner that makes matters easy to understand.
- You can implement his SEO strategies immediately. By following a few simple suggestions in regard to plugins and a few free SEO tools, you can start effecting your search results the very same day.
- Michael offers clear explanations that demonstrate effective ways to use search engines, along with some free tools to help uncover the methods of your competition.
- The included video makes an already articulate program crystal clear. Michael shows you how to navigate through the WordPress dashboard so that nothing is left to guessing.
- I love that SEO WordPress sticks to two subjects – SEO and WordPress. There is nothing included to dilute the message.
The 1 thing I didn’t like
The audio, especially on the first section is kinda weak. The quality fades in and out and the questions are cut. The questions were taken from a rather long (I’m sure) teleseminar, and I do understand the need for brevity, but it would have been nice to hear some of the banter that took place during the conference. It’s not a huge deal, but it was a tablespoon of mayonnaise in my guacamole.
If blogging is simply your hobby, then WordPress Secrets I would not recommend. However, if you are trying to carve a living from your online endeavors, I would highly suggest you use the sharpest tools possible.
Michael Martine’s SEO WordPress Secrets has the edge of a razor.

I’m so glad you guys are fans of Remarkablogger and IttyBiz! I’m on one of Naomi’s live tele-courses at the moment and bought one of her ebooks in her ’sale’. Like you guys, Michael and Naomi have a great way of making readers feel like they’re reaching out one person to another – a priceless blogging skill. Like your wee videos, Naomi makes me laugh too, something else that helps to keep me going on days when I’m ready to give up this whole blog building business.
Thanks for pointing us to such great stuff! I really appreciate that you could be keeping all this to yourselves but don’t. ~ Janice
Sean,
Good to see you exploring the far shores in the SEO ocean. I’m still not sure I want to make that journey myself, but maybe these products will be the motivation I need! Thanks for the reviews.
( “… it was a tablespoon of mayonnaise in my guacamole” — Who would even think to put mayo in guacamole? Yuck!)
Look at you, Sean! Singing the praises of SEO. At one time you worried that it would cramp your writing style, but now you know better. Glad to see you capitalizing on all the good that SEO copy can do for you and your blogs.
Janice: I think both Naomi and Michael do a tremendous job for their readers. Both have a genuine personality that brims to the top of everything they do. I’ve been really pleased with both of their products, which I certainly can’t say with everything I’ve bought.
Lori: They’re weird waters to be certain, but if you approach them from the right angle, they can sure be fun. I resisted them for a while, but am having fun dribbling the ball these days. (It’s an important skill when you have e-books to market!)
Susan: You were one of the first to light the way, Susan. No doubt about it. Thanks as always.
Looking at it from a profitable standpoint, SEO breathes a positive breath of fresh air into any company’s website that hasn’t been updated to be search-engine friendly and optimized to be high up in rankings for a specific niche. Getting a program like this will explain SEO so when someone talks in terms of link-building or re-designing a website to be Web 2.0 compliant, they will actually understand what’s being talked about.
