Hello and welcome to my new web site and blog all about Search Engine Optimization (SEO).

SEO is seen by many as a black art, expensive, difficult and only usable by large corporations or evil spammers trying to trick Google. Nothing is further from the truth. SEO is easy to do, it costs nothing (though investing a little in your web site can help) and it benefits anyone with a web site. Its not even about making money. If you have a blog, a fan site or an online support group, you want people to find you. People who are interested in your subject. This is what SEO is all about. Making sure that those people who are searching find what they are looking for.

This is why I created Friendly Affordable SEO. I wanted to create a web site that was free, friendly and gave good advice on SEO so that the hundreds of thousands of people with blogs and web sites can get the visitors they deserve. It is also a big Thank You gift to the internet. In learning SEO I have read hundreds of articles and quizzed experts on forums and not once did I pay anything for that help. I cannot say thank you to the countless people who have help me but I can in turn help others.

So please come in. This blog covers news of SEO and general updates about the site. The nitty, gritty, how-to-do-it advice can be found in this selection of free SEO articles.
