Customer Reviews

Easy to read yet informative

The authors have taken a step by step approach to deliver a good amount of useful information and resource links. The book is easy to read (or scan as a reference). The book proceeds from a general overview to the minutia of search engines and how they work. That section is outdated being that it is now 2004.The book remains a useful guide on analyzing top-ranking pages. The content is written with the professional in mind, but is easy enough for the do-it-yourselfer with basic web page editing skills to understand. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking for legitimate ways to increase their web site placement on the search engines. The book was written in 2000 and therefore does not focus on Google and is somewhat outdated. However, I applied the optimization techniques in the book and still gained a top ranking for those targeted keywords in Google, MSN and others.

It really MAXIMIZED my web site traffic!

I knew that getting my site listed in the search engines was important, but I had no idea how to get listed effectively. When I found this book I was skeptical at first. Who could teach me all there is to know about the search engines? I did my research and found out that Robin Nobles was co-founder of Academy of Web Specialists ... and Susan O'Neil ... I decided to go for it and buy the book, and I was very impressed. After only a short period of time I was already seeing results in my web site's rankings, and all I did was follow the step by step instructions in the book. If you want to know the secrets search engine positioning I highly recommend this book. I have more top ten rankings in the search engines than I ever dreamed. And I even got into Yahoo! Thank you for writing a book so easy to understand and so effective.

Good for the beginners and good for the pros

After 3 successful years of immersion in the search engine optimization business, I've read quite a bit and I've been to most of the conferences. "Maximize Web Site Traffic" is surprising in it's scope. Obtaining good position in the engines and directories is like surfing a large powerful wave; if you are not in the perfect position you either miss the wave or are buried beneath it.... In this business we have to have the best information and one needs to see the whole picture. This book works. I am using it for training inexperienced employees as well as giving our more experienced analysts very interesting techniques to use in their work.

Webmaster RushHohol.vom

I begin to build my web site in 1997 and tied to make traffic better. I had fewer than 500 visitors every month. After took courses in Web Positioning provided by Robin Nobles, director of training The Academy of Web Specialists, traffic of my site was increased to 9000 visitors every month. By fallow strategy described in their book "...Maximize Web Site Traffic..." now I have over 15000 visitors every month by working with pages of my site 3-4 hours a week only. Just use their strategy without any payment.

An excellent resource for maximizing web traffic

After months and months of trying to get listed well in the search engines, I discovered this book. It took me step by step through the different procedures required for success in the major search engines, like Yahoo and AOL Search. Easy to read and very thorough, too. I recommend it highly to anyone looking for greater web traffic. It's working for me.
