Anyone selling SEO services on here, knows the 90% part that is freely available on the net, and just hasn't really mastered the remaining 10% yet.

But then, if you are too lazy to research this stuff yourself, or perhaps you lack common sense to pull all the pieces together, paying someone $200 to teach you the basics (90% part) isn't THAT bad of a deal.
