If you've been hunting down SEO advice for your Carpet Cleaning Service website on the net you've probably seen a lot of advice. But how much of it is true?
Not much ... is the answer!
In this section I'll take you through the common myths that surround Carpet Cleaning Service SEO and debunk them including:

- Sitemap Submission
