I am excited to announce a new project I am working on with Andy Hagans and a group of brilliant technologists. Our seo software will be called DIYSEO. Our product is meant to solve a simple problem: Small businesses with limited budgets, time, and online know-how need basic SEO help. The SEO service sector has expanded by a huge amount in the past few years, and there are varied and mature offerings geared towards corporations, agencies, and small businesses with $5,000-$1M+ annual online marketing budgets. On the tool and training side, there are a number of great SEO solutions out there that target different segments of the market:
- Professional SEOs, super affiliates, savvy webmasters, and in-house SEM managers can utilize Aaron Wall’s SEO Book and SEOmoz’s PRO membership.
- Marketing agencies and SEO service providers who need metric driven results can turn to solutions like SoloSEO and Raven Internet Marketing Tools.
But what about the small business that can budget only $500 and 25 hours per year towards online marketing?
The product is a couple of months away from a public launch but please leave your email address so you can be the first to preview the product and get other fun announcements along the way. You can also follow DIYSEO on Twitter. I haven’t been this excited about an SEO product since launching Text-Link-Ads.com back in 2003 and we look forward to bringing a product that will drive true SEO value to small businesses real soon! Visit DIYSEO.com to sign up for special announcements and product beta releases, etc.

Come on! You’ve got to give us more than just a teaser? How does it work? What will it cost? Will there be a free beta? We want details!
Everything I’ve seen so far looks great. Very polished. I’m excited to see more.
Sounds really interesting, its great that smaller businesses will be able to get themselves noticed online, as well as those that can afford to spend a lot of money on marketing! Sounds like it is going to be good!
Right on! I have a brother who just launched a site, and I would like him to do his OWN seo, rather than relying on me…bring it on!
This sounds like a great venture. Here’s wishing you every success. I look forward to seeing the finished product.

I couldn’t agree more. I would love to to know a lot more details on this new SEO product that is supposed to help small businesses with a tight budgets.
Hello again, just thought Id stop by and check your progress, I was struck by your logo design. I really like it, simple and friendly like i imagine your new product is.
Hey Patrick,
It sounds a lot like a project I am working on , http://www.ezwebsitemonitoring.com/ , which is also in beta right now.. Is DIYSEO similar to it with the tracking/monitoring/reporting or more geared toward giving SEO suggestions?
Congratulations Patrick! I think this is a fantastic idea and I can’t wait for the roll out.
Nice going Patrick. Can you please tell me what will be the pricing around for this product. I hope it would be worth to the pricing you decide. Best of Luck for the product though.
I totally agree in your plan to help small businesses gain expert SEO advice. I am wishing you success in this project of yours.
This is a great concept. It will open the idea of SEO to those small businesses who have a limited budget. This will help out the SEO industry too because then other small businesses will feel the pressure to compete with SEO. In any case, both the small business and the SEO firms will benefit.
