How to learn SEO marketing from noob to pro?

[starfang]

I want to ask someone who is more experienced in the field of SEO marketing. How could I learn basics of SEO? I'm currently working salesmen for a SEO company, I want to learn the SEO thing from scratch. I would like to be able to talk to clients about SEO. I started reading free SEO guides available in the web but they are not up-to-date as it sounds.

Please help

Well reading online tutorials are a good start, Yeah I have noticed not many guides are up to date. You are at the right place, forums are very active places. You can start by asking questions, clearing your doubts. If you have trouble regarding seo or web design you can easily get quick questions. Ofc not all of them are correct.
If you go through this forum you can find plenty of new topics or questions about seo. Also subscribe for some blogs, they are up to date. you can join in the comment section if you have any doubts.
Even in this website they have a blog subscribe to them.

I gathered all my seo knowledge from forums and blogs. Internet is full of resources.
Good luck!

Are there any hard copy books about SEO? Where to buy them?

There are plenty of books on amazon, but I never read any of them.
IMO you could learn more about seo online. I'd rather stick to forums and blogs than reading some out dated books.
