Hi Hossein Sheykholeslami,

The tricky part about SEO (in my opinion) is that most search engine algorithms are proprietary, so all these SEO consulting firms are just making educated guesses as to what works and what doesn't. They are constantly gathering and sifting through data to keep up to date. Most of the free page ranking tools no longer work.

Also, I think design and development is still useful as you can have someone else focus their attention and skills on keeping the rankings up (e.g. content marketing, A/B testing, etc.)

That being said, my favorite guide to SEO is here:

The one thing I'd like to see that I haven't found a great resource for is explaining Schema.org. Their site has a ton of examples, but it seems like even people who have identified the same gaps in explanations also struggle to explain how it all works in their guides (while being fully aware they are struggling to explain it). 😋 Maybe that would be a nice narrow subject to cover.
