Absolutely free "how to" advice and tool usage supported with fee-based products, tools, links, tutorials, and optimization services only if needed. This site is offered for those planning to build, optimize, and promote their own website. We offer a few secrets and help with everything from implementing effective SEO programs to developing do it yourself web promotion strategies and plans. This is hard, technical, detailed work, and we offer everything you need to succeed.

To construct a great content-rich website takes planning. A competent designer would use online architectural design principles, carefully combining information delivery and intuitive navigation to satisfy the visitor's needs (why they visited) while accomplishing their own goals for fame or fortune (why the website was created). Having a proper architecture is vital to the search engine marketing of a site that will attract and also satisfy visitors. Simply put, designing an award winning website is not enough. The site needs to be placed in front of potential visitors or they will not know you exist. It is the integration of web design, development, and search engine marketing with focused optimization and promotion tactics that is vital to the success of your site. Without smart promotion any great website will fail. And with a growing trend towards regional search, an international, national, and regional internet positioning strategy has to be woven into your site or it simply will not be found. Bruceclay.com focuses specifically on how to synergistically succeed at website design, search engine optimization, submission, and promotion. We help you achieve high search engine positioning without having to design search engine tools of your own.

At first glance unprepossessing and text heavy, this site nonetheless offers comprehensive, stellar information on effective website design, promotion and search engine registration. Clay's site is a must-visit for Internet marketers, for both the quality of its information and its modeling of what works on the Web." - Larry Chase, Web Digest for Marketers
