Small Business Seo question

Ok, I'm new here, but I run a small business that im not really to interested in making money onlind, more just being #1 in a few nitches which would get me way more hits to my site the main nitch the top site only have 104 back links so i figure with some hard work i can come up with more than that. But my real question is the website right now is just static html since i don't do anything online that's all I really need. So would switching to lets say word press and using it as my cms just have a static index page be a better way to optimize it for the web or should i stay with a static html page.


Thanks

It makes no difference, it depends what you need to DO with the website. You can do SEO with html or php.

I just thought with some of the plugins available to wordpress it might be a better option

my friend welcome to the forum

to rank high in the search engines 20% is on page seo 80% is off page ie link building

so basically you can keep your site as is and just build links to it..

see who is number 1 for your chosen keyword and get backlinks from the sites that they link to

Thanks for the advice, will do.
