SEO Optimization
Today has been primarily used to learn and better understand optimizing websites using SEO. I never really paid attention to how or why SEO was so important until now. Which now I realize is a huge mistake when it comes to building and most importantly growing websites. This is something that I can't ignore anymore and will be working towards the goal of perfecting my knowledge of SEO. For those of you who don't know what SEO is it simply stands for Search Engine Optimization. I have always been plagued with clients that believe that as a Web Developer I can magically make their website appear as the number one thing on their site.
For a while, I believed that it was possible using my limited knowledge of the subject and just building the site without optimizing it for search engines. I was completely wrong in that instance because I believe that all one had to do was input meta data for the website itself. Looking at various websites source code that seemed to be the case. Unfortunately it isn't that simple. So as I learn more and more everyday about web development and all the things that go into it, if I want to make money while doing this I have to take into consideration SEO and learning all that I can about it.
It's going to be an interesting couple of months as I learn, develop and perfect my techniques as a Web Developer but I honestly believe that it will be worth the time and effort to perfecting my skills as a Web Developer. Most money to be made isn't solely in Software Development and I believe more and more everyday that Web Development is Software Development. As it encompasses many aspects of Software Development and it's many paradigms and methodologies. Ranging from the basic to the Object-Oriented. The trick is learning all sorts of tools and techniques to make the process go much more efficiently. So as a result I try my best to help those online by teaching them what I have learned from my experience. There isn't any point in just learning something unless you can apply it and teach it to someone else as well as guide them along their way to becoming developers.
There is much to learn and much to catch up with. So I will see you in my next post and hopefully I'll get some comments as I continue progressing with this blog and my career in development.
