I have not reviewed the book and I’m not a programmer, so I can’t tell you that  “Professional Search Engine Optimization with PHP" is any good or not - but given what I have seen of lousy SEO many web design companies produce ….it’s gott a help them, it certainly can’t be much worse than what is being produced by many firms today.

I got wind of this today from Revenews:

"

It was written by Jaimie Sirovich from SEOEggHead.com and veteran developer and book author Cristian Darie.

The book covers the following topics:

• basic SEO concepts
• building search engine friendly URLs
• content relocation and the HTTP status codes
• duplicate content
• on-page optimization using HTML and JavaScript
• web syndication and social bookmarking
• discussion of black hat SEO
• IP cloaking, geo-targeting, and IP delivery
• enhancing existing websites for better Search Engine performance
• a complete case study demonstrating an optimized e-commerce catalog

I will order a copy and write a review of it - but I’d get every developer I work with to buy their own copy.
