One thing to constantly keep in mind with Search Engine Optimization is that it is constantly changing and ongoing support and coaching is a must.

The mindset that "...you can set it and forget it" is the biggest misconception of SEO according to Thomas W. Petty, associate SEO educator at Search Engine Academy Associates. In order to maintain top search engine rankings, content must be constantly added and updated.

Petty explains how SEO requires ongoing support and coaching, especially since the playing field changes daily. In 2009, traditional SEO will become less important as more and more are figuring out how to lock in high rankings and search engines expand beyond strict SEO guidelines.

Perhaps the biggest change is in the Web 2.0 arena. Social media outlets such as YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, etc. are "...taking the world by storm" according to Petty and companies that do not consider that will be missing out. All marketing outlets (YellowPages, radio, TV), now more than ever, must be tied into the Internet and tracked in order to be useful.

Above all, Petty advises that a client must understand their customer base and goals before even considering the tools they will use. Through Search Engine Academy Associates, Petty offers Search Engine Optimization training courses in the San Francisco Bay area.
