Step 1 - review the Beginner's Guide to SEO. For each site you work on, open the guide and move from beginning to end. This process will improve the site and help you learn SEO.
Step 2 - read SEO updates from quality sources. I would suggest focusing on the SEOmoz blog, Matt Cutt's blog and videos and Google's official information. While other sources can offer additional information, there is more then enough content in the mentioned sources to keep you occupied for many months. Additionally, there is a ton of inaccurate SEO related information which is best not to be exposed to until you have the credible knowledge learned.
Step 3 - apply what you have learned. Try working with your sites, applying the techniques, measuring the results and making changes. You should also understand not all results can be measured in rankings alone. Click-Through-Rate, Conversion Rate, Bounce Rate and other metrics are very important factors.

Re-writing articles, how does this effect SEO?
Hi there, I noticed a competitor had re-created a couple of articles I wrote, but they made reference back to me in the article, can in anyway possible myself or their site be penalised for duplicate content? The article isn't completely copied word for word, however it is definitely shows some similarity. Any advice around this? Thank you in advance

Hire single SEO & SEM person or hire separate people?
I've been moved to a busines development part of the business but I'm still in charge of all of our SEO and SEM. I was only an advanced beginner to begin with but our needs have grown. I'm not sure whether to contract with one or two people. Can someone be extremely well versed in all things SEO and SEM or is it better to get two people on board that might serve as a better sounding board? While they certainly work together, both are a constant moving target and it requires us to stay on top of trends and white hat policies of all the major players. My worst nightmare is to get someone that tries to game the system and screws up our rankings long term.

Do "big" SEO companies remove links after termination of service?
Or worded differently: Has anyone heard of "big" SEO companies removing links after termination of service? I have a client who isn't particularly happy with the SEO he's getting from a big Aussie SEO firm, and he wants to terminate, however they've built thousands of links for him and he's a little concerned they might all get pulled. Has anyone heard of this happening, or; Do you think this is a legitimate concern? I think its physically possible to remove backlinks like this because it seems the SEO firm in question is building links by using other client's websites. I also wonder if they might have large content farm style sites where they place links for clients which might be quite easy to take down. Please discuss!
