How can I start with SEO step by step

Hi, I’m new to making money online. Does anyone know an easy way to start? What should I focus on learning?

Start by learning the basics, make mistakes, keep improving, and repeat the cycle.

Alright, if you want to start from scratch, here’s a basic outline:

  1. Decide what your website or business will focus on.
  2. Do keyword research to see what people are searching for.
    • Look for keywords with good traffic and potential value.
  3. Buy a domain (costs about $10).
  4. Get hosting for your site (WordPress is a popular choice).
  5. Set up your site:
    • Install a theme.
    • Create important pages (Home, About, Contact, etc.).
    • Write your first blog post.
  6. Use tools like Google Search Console and Analytics to monitor your site.
  7. Build backlinks slowly and consistently—aim for quality over quantity.
  8. Post new content regularly and keep researching what’s working.

It’s a grind, but if you stick to it, you’ll start seeing results.

This looks good on paper, but step 15 is where it gets really tough.

Not as hard as it seems. For instance, you can buy a good backlink from some trusted sources, but you have to be careful.

Building even one link feels impossible for me. I’ve got one link in six months, and that took a lot of effort.

Don’t go for cheap, low-quality links. They do more harm than good. Focus on building relationships and getting real, valuable links.

I think there’s a misunderstanding here. Low-authority links aren’t always bad; they can still help if they come from legitimate sources. But spammy-looking ones? Avoid those at all costs.

I followed all these steps but my site still isn’t ranking. Any advice?

If you’re new, why not try working for someone first to learn how things are done? This field requires skill and experience, not shortcuts.

That’s a pretty harsh take. Everyone has to start somewhere.

Check out learningseo.io and apply what you learn.

You could take an online course or look for an internship to get hands-on experience.

If you’re interested, I’m selling my Authority Hacker Pro membership. I’m moving on to a different opportunity.

Be cautious, don’t trust everything you hear or read.

Start with resources like Matt Cutts on YouTube or Google’s official guides. They’re great for beginners.

Look at Website Squadron’s SEO resources. Remember, keywords are just a tool—they’re useless without a proper strategy.

To begin, focus on these steps:

  1. Learn the basics: keyword research, on-page SEO, and backlinks.
  2. Read free guides like the Moz Beginner’s Guide to SEO.
  3. Practise on your own website.
  4. Use tools like Google Analytics to track progress.
  5. Explore advanced topics like technical SEO once you’re comfortable.

It takes time, but consistency pays off.
