As said before, to learn SEO, you don't need to have much more than a working knowledge of computers and the internet. While a few aspects of it can be technical in nature, the good news is that actual implementation in most cases only involves simple actions like word processing or creating links.

With each post, and the link it contains, your ranking will move just a little bit higher.
