asked what makes you a valued SEO, Ant Onaf says "I am always a student

succeed and makes me a valued SEO."
About the Book "Self Taught
SEO"
Self Taught SEO is an
instructional and self help SEO reference guide and online SEO book. After reading
through this book you will have the knowledge and understanding to
successfully market any website for top search engine ranking.
Additionally, you will have the skills to enter the SEO business and
help others with ranking their websites for a monetary value. The
techniques provided in this site lean more toward white hat techniques,
but also discusses a few black hat and gray hat techniques, but not
recommended and is not intended
as an exercise, as you should caution black hat and gray hat techniques
can get a website banned from search engines and the website will not have any
ranking or results in the search engines. White hat techniques can
sometimes be perceived as black or gray hat techniques but are less
likely to result in banment of your websites. The key to white hat
techniques is to remember, less is more!
This site does not provide you with any get rich quick schemes or
overnight success approaches, each facet of this site requires
applied effort and dedicated time on your part. In some cases it

With that said, it is possible it could take years to see results.
It completely depends on your website, your effort, your time,

not for you. If you have never heard of Google Adwords or
Google Adsense, then you probably will get bored, but maybe
you're a beginner, in that case continue reading and learn more about Google Adwords and
Google Adsense
