Honestly, I would advise you to find another position. You can read all the SEO books and websites but that will not make you an expert. All you will be doing is copying someone else and you don't even know if they are really experts or faking it like you will be doing. Experience is the best teacher when it comes to this area. Yes, there are some credible resources but how can you legitimately provide a service that you know absolutely nothing about?

Best to read as much as you can.
Forums, books, articles, and the like.

I wouldn't take this to heart too much.

there are a lot of different opinions out there, including mine, but I wouldn't say that submitting your site everywhere is the best idea.

Seo is s process to optimize a website to get high result in SERP. To get started study website then make a list of keyword related to your targeted service and product. Put your most important keywords in title, description and in body contents.

I am sure you have found out the basic of search engine opitmisation by now by reading responses in this post and also by your own research on search engine optimisation. This is OK form a technical point of view. However as you have hired someone to work on search engine optimisation on your behalf, I am assuming you are looking at it from a business point view. As such it will important to consider what task arrangements you have established with the SEO person you have hired to the do the search engine optimisation for your website . Is it a per month set up where he or she will put in a certain of amount of hours or is it a one off fee for certain tasks.

In either case you should ask him to outline exactly the tasks that he wishes to undertake. Weigh these tasks against your own knowledge on SEO techniques that is very easy to research online. his should give you a good idea of the campaign. Make sure you study the current website usage patterns using Google analytics. You can then evaluate your websites statistics every six to eight weeks or so to measure the impact of the Search engine optimisation tasks undertaken by the person you have hired.

seo is a technique by which we can rank our site on Google or other search engines. i think for more you have to read e books which are available on google ... there you can learn in brief .. best of luck

You should read as much as you can, and be active in various seo forums. There you can find answers to your problems if you get stuck somewhere. But be active. SEO is an on-going process, so help yourself. You will learn more from your personal experience only.

Member Avatar for ruby.mein

Do some keyword research
Do On-Page Optimization (its all about your site structure)
Do Off-Page Optimization (its done outside your site)

Member Avatar for theemerchant

wow! you've got the position without having any idea what SEO is all about? hmmn.. try to read more sites and there are a lots of SEO books to be downloaded. you can also watch in youtube.

SEO consists of on page and off page optimization, what you are going to do is to build links on all marketing avenues like directory submission, article submission, social bookmarking, social networking and forum posting. you can also do media links like youtube and more. you are going to do this because you want your site to be on the first page of the google. but it is impossible if the keyword you are going to rank will be on the number one. in order for you to reach the number 1 on the page of the google you have to pay to exchange links to the highest PR sites and more

Hope this will help you

You need to study a lot and follow the latest trends that are going on. Participate in different forum discussions on SEO related topics. As much as experience you'll get you'll become skilled and impliment those strategies for your site effectively.

Member Avatar for InsightsDigital

You have to start thinking of constantly re-optimizing your site's SEO in a consistent manner so the new content on your site is reflected on your site's SEO.

Member Avatar for rajasekaran_pr

Without Knowledge who has given the SEO executive post, it’s difficult to handle the projects. I don’t think so, anyhow, I will give basic information about SEO,
First you must learn basic things about HTML tags like formatting tag, style sheet, etc
Second you will learn basics idea about SEO, what is what?
You can go through the websites like seomoz, Google webmaster, Blogs, etc. then you can start SEO executive job.
