What's the best way to learn SEO?
I've worked online for just over 5 years, so I have a grasp of what SEO is and the theory behind it. I lack the know-how to actually perform SEO for my business. What is the best and most current resource to learn SEO?

I'm looking for either a book or an online program. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

"Landing Page Optimization" by Tim Ash - although this is a usability type thing, and only indirectly related to SEO. (was recommended by EGOL)

"The Art of War" by Sun Tzu - strategy book - has good application to any aspect of life involving strategic business. (read in Business Law class, then after recommended also by EGOL, read it again with an SEO perspective)
