[Sigia-l] Beginner to SEO

[James Melzer]

I can see the job listing now -

fiefdom. Must have at least 400 years experience, control over
elemental nature, and a library science degree. Will lead project to
improve search ranking without actually changing our site in any way.
Demonstrated success with similar projects or other heroic feats
required. Ability to alter space and time a plus. Competitive salary
and benefits. Respond to recruiting at deus.net.
