SEO Expert Saves Small Businesses Over $5,000 in Site Optimization Charges by Providing Industry Secrets in New Book, 'Raise Your Ranking'

Search Engine Optimization expert, Erin Ferree of elf design releases new book, "Raise Your Ranking," showing small businesses how to save more than $5000 in SEO charges and take control of their own business by doing their own SEO. Says Ferree, "Your website is useless unless it is doing certain things for your business. This Small Business SEO system will show you how to move your website into the top ten of the search engine listings and keep it there."

Belmont, CA (PRWEB) July 14, 2007 -- Small businesses can now save $5,000 to $15,000 in fees for Search Engine Optimization (SEO) of their websites. SEO is a fact of life in an Internet-based business arena.

The purpose of optimizing a website is to achieve high positions and rankings in the organic search results lists of the leading search engines. Achieving higher positions and rankings connects Internet traffic to these business websites. Saving $5,000 to $15,000 in SEO fees is a significant move for most small businesses with tight marketing budgets. An invoice for $10,000 to $15,000 for site optimization by a recognized expert is a marketing cost many small businesses have been convinced they must consider a cost of doing business.

Today, however, the cost of doing business has been slashed to only a small fraction of the previous budget line by Erin Ferree, Principal of Elf Design, Inc. Ferree has become a recognized expert in both branding and SEO. She is, in fact, one of those SEO experts who can command such steep fees for her work. "The truth is," says Ferree, "SEO for small businesses is so simple that there is no reason for a small business to rely on someone else to do this for them. This book lays out a complete system that is really easy to follow. And it gives small businesses control. They can maintain their own site optimization throughout the life of their businesses.

Ferree has recently made a strategic business decision to focus her efforts on branding and website and logo development for her clients. As a small business owner, Ferree feels a deep affinity for other small business owners. She has an acute understanding of the pressures and priorities impinging upon small businesses as they try to succeed against big-budget multi-national corporations. "I decided it makes more sense to publish the entire system for small business SEO than to just allow a secret to slip out from time to time and make its way through the grapevine," she says. Although allowing small tips to slip out is exactly what many SEO experts do, Ferree promises that "every trick is in this bag."

Ferree's new product Raise Your Ranking is a multi-element, multi-media package that offers small businesses everything they need in one place. Ferree has broken down small business SEO and all the insider secrets she has learned into her own Total SEO System. "Your website is useless unless it is doing certain things for your business. This Small Business SEO system will show you how to move your website into the top ten of the search engine listings and keep it there."
