As silly as this sounds, the book is written in a straight-forward manner that the 'average' person can understand. Includes helpful tips that would be missed otherwise -- how to be picked up by spiders, resizing in a photo editor vs shrinking/enlarging in design software, keywords, etc. Straightforward & simple, not just for dummies.
