newbie question as it says: what is the best thing to start with SEO as in learning and experimenting?
there was some online course once called the challenge, i think it's still there but not so up to date. that's a really good start in my opinion, i used to send there every new IM'er i met but that was like 2 years ago. btw, i've noticed that some of the best IM'ers i know are former content writers and copywriters, maybe that can be a good start too
I'd suggest you to start with reading about finding good keywords because they are the footstone of your SEO efforts.. If you choose the wrong keywords then all your other efforts would go to waste
