Welcome to the Joomla SEO Club and Book

I'm delighted today to be able annouce the launch of our Joomla SEO eBook.

It is the only comprehensive guide on to how to manage Search Engine Optimization for your Joomla website.

Other guides talk in generalities that may help you with a static HTML site, but our aim is to precisely target the problems and solutions you'll face when trying to earn high rankings with your Joomla website.

Why did you write an SEO Book for Joomla!

• We came across a lot of people with Joomla sites who were struggling in the search engines. Most of these problems are easily fixed with the right information.
• Theres nothing else like it available. There are many general SEO books but this is the one specifically focusing on essential techniques for Joomla.

What's in the book?

The book contains indepth chapters on each of the following key topics:

• Metadata and Headline Tags
• Search Engine Friendly URLs
• Duplicate Content
• Robots.txt
• Sitemaps
• Templates
  
• Product Reviews
• Specific tips for certain major components
  

What plans are there for the SEO Book in the future?

Search Engine Optimization is a moving target and any book that isn't updated regularly will soon be out-of-date. The Joomla SEO eBook will be updated regularly. We have the following roadmap for adding and expanding content:

• End of April 2007: Chapter on RSS Feeds
• May 2007: Case Studies with real life examples from Alledia clients
  
• June 2007: Thorough reviews of every SEO extension available for Joomla
• July 2007: Updated version of the guide for Joomla 1.5 (if available by then)

Just like a developer launching a component, we're looking for feedback as to what features you'd like to see added. Please email This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it with any suggestions at all.

Does this mean you'll stop blogging?

No. In fact, you can expect us to publish even more free, premium-quality content. Now that the book is finally written, I'll have more time for the blog. Look out for more free Joomla and SEO resources in the coming weeks.

Hi Hummerbie - thanks for the kind words. I'm working on that chapter now.

BTW....I've been keeping an eye on a blog that has a couple of stellar tips, including one about avoiding duplicate content with Feedburner feeds:

After having a look at the book, I believe it's one of the best sources I've read about Joomla SEO. I've been following this blog for a while now and have enjoyed the in-depth SEO tools and information you've been covering.

Great work. Good luck.
