Where is the best place to find an SEO coach?

[kadesmith]

I'm looking for a coach who can help me get to the next level with SEO and help me determine what's junk and what's true advice.  Are there any recommendations any of you have out there on where to find such a person?

For knowing what's good advice, I'd start out by reading our recently updated Beginner's Guide to SEO. That should help you get started without even needing to hire someone just yet.

Just read a lot of the postings here on SEOMOZ and its blogs. A wealth of info. Also I've been reading the   "Art of SEO" new version released this year. It is a long book but very informative. I highly recommend.

Once you have stepped up your game and you have some money, go to Market Motive and take Avinash's Analytics class.

It's not always about SEO. For my clients, it's about more money in the bank. SEO is only a part of the puzzle.
