We were all beginners once. If the world of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and link-building is new to you, don't worry. The internet is full of great resources to help you learn the terminology and get starting improving your site rankings. Here are a few sites that helped me back when I was just a young green pea in the land of SEO:

You can also search for optimization tips on Microsoft's bCentral small business hub. You'll find pages of advice, which prove particularly useful in optimizing for Microsoft's new Bing search engine - although many of the tricks listed are still applicable to Google and other search engines as well.
