If you've been hunting down SEO advice for your Cupcake Shop 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 Cupcake Shop SEO and debunk them including:
- Blogging
- Sitemap Submission

It costs but Google will tell you how well your website is being received by people (versus competitors) while at the same time giving Google the data it needs to make ranking decisions far faster.
