5.0 out of 5 stars Very good review of Drupal SEO tools
I work for an SEO company in colorado as a php/javascript/drupal developer. I had written the staff training material for drupal, which includes drupal specific training for our optimization department.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very Slow shipping
Shipping was taking over 2 weeks...
come on!!!! They said it would take 5-7 days with free shipping.
If you want to save several bucks and have a lot of time... this guy is good for you.
But if you need a book ASAP, this is not right one...you must be ready to pay extra bucks.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good review of Drupal SEO tools, October 13, 2009

This review is from: Drupal 6 Search Engine Optimization (Paperback)
I work for an SEO company in colorado as a php/javascript/drupal developer. I had written the staff training material for drupal, which includes drupal specific training for our optimization department.

What I can say about this book is that it pretty much covers exactly what I have in my material with a more comprehensive section on how to use RDF and Calais' webAPI service, which is something well beyond the scope of most people's understanding in our company. For example, when i say microformats or 'semantic web' to them, i might as well be speaking in tongues. But that's ok, because now they have a copy of the book to learn these things.

In case you didn't get it, I recommend this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great hands-on guide for practitioners, November 3, 2009
By Lance Loveday (Auburn, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Drupal 6 Search Engine Optimization (Paperback)
There are a lot of books about SEO and a lot of books about Drupal, but this is the first one I've seen specifically on SEO for Drupal sites. As such, it's a tightly focused guide that is packed full of Drupal-specific optimization tips.

I was really impressed with the practical and helpful "how to" approach of this book. A lot of authors (myself included) can't help but get preachy at times. But Ben manages to avoid that trap and stays laser-focused on his topic and providing concrete guidance for exactly how to optimize your site. There are plenty of helpful graphics and screen shots to help keep things interesting, and step-by-step explanations for how to do everything he recommends. This is definitely a reference guide that any Drupal developer or site manager should read and then keep within close reach.

I went to the DrupalCon in San Francisco back in April and Ben's presentation on "Conversion Rate Optimization" was the most interesting and informative session I went to the whole week. I immediately bought his book and highly recommend for anyone that runs a Drupal site check it out as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Practical and Essential!, May 29, 2010
This review is from: Drupal 6 Search Engine Optimization (Paperback)
OMG this has not only the commonsense you expect to find. But what I really love about it is the practical and specific DRUPAL instructions.
Thank you Ben!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best place to find Drupal-specific SEO advice, May 21, 2010
By Kathryn Hefner "Sloane" (Mokelumne Hill, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Drupal 6 Search Engine Optimization (Paperback)
This book is very valuable for Drupal developers and Drupal shops ... but maybe even more so for the do-it-yourself / individual Drupal site owner. It takes the basic premise of open source and adds the ability for anyone with a Drupal site to do some very effective search engine optimization. You don't need to be a programmer or SEO specialist to follow the steps outlined in the book and get results. It's very easy to understand and implement.

My advice: set up a Google Analytics account (if you haven't already). Then buy this book and use it, and track the results over the following months. You'll likely be as happy as I am. :)
