A homework assignment for an Search Engine Optimization (SEO) class I am taking, is to write why I decided to learn SEO. This is something I have decided to do several times and could make for a long story. But an abbreviated version is below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I started making my own websites about 20 years ago. I made a few sites but my most important was a website that hosted the computer games I created. Naturally I wanted to get as many visitors to my website as I could. I mean that was back in the days when most websites had a counter in the visitor saying “You are the XXX visitor to this site” so it was kind of a reputation thing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
