User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Good place to start good results.
I will keep this short and simple. I am a web developer ( stuffdone.com ) but not an SEO expert. I thought I would start to learn more.

I bought the book.

I followed the instructions.

I now have THREE different sites on page one of Yahoo ( without paying them their $299 fee! )

and one on page one of Google. All within two weeks of reading the book.

It works !

The Findability Formula: The Easy, Non-Technical Approach to Search Engine Marketing

5 Stars Great Book for the Search Engine Marketing “Newbie”
This is a great book for anyone just getting started with Search Engine Marketing as the author gives a great overview of the steps needed to set up pay per click campaigns.

Advanced users might find it a bit basic, but that’s not who this book is designed for. This book is designed for the small business owner who knows Search Engine Marketing is an important web traffic driver for his/her business, needs to get up to speed fast, and wants someone to explain it sequentially.

The author does a great job in setting up Search Engine Marketing step-by-step in an easy to follow way that should be very helpful to anyone who has never run a marketing team and needs to learn to do this themselves.

There are more advanced books out there for those who need to delve into the nitty-gritty, but if you are just getting started, and are a non-technical person who wants easy to follow instructions, then this book is a must read.

4 Stars Could be briefer
While this book seems to get the basic points line up in a way that readers can easily digest them, it also wastes some of your time with basics that anyone interested in internet marketing must already know. A better book I would recommend (that also teaches you how to build a website in fewer pages) is called “Your Best Website.” I used it to build my site,[...]about social anxiety and I knew nothing about SEO or building sites when I read it.

4 Stars How to Get Your Website Found
Getting your business, website, or product found by customers in today’s Internet age is now almost entirely dictated by search engines, and those are dominated by Google. Lutze has put together what she called the findability formula. //Findability Formula// provides instruction on how search engines work, how search engine marketing works, and how to take advantage of both. While you need some knowledge of how computers and your website operate, Lutze gives easy-to-follow instruction, plenty of examples, and tips and tools to successfully market your product, whatever it might be. There are plenty of online tools that Lutze includes, with a summary of each at the end of each chapter. An efficient, easy-to-read book that is well organized and well worth the time and effort it will take to read it, and include into your online marketing campaign.

5 Stars A must read for small business owners.
The Findability Formula has enabled our business, Preppy Pet Suites, to grow at 20% per month! Heather makes the complicated world of ecommerence easy to understand and easier to implement. Using the book’s formula keeps us ranked high on Google and Yahoo. I can sincerely say that our new business would not be as successful without Heather’s help.
