SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, is the process of improving a website’s visibility on search engine results pages (SERPs) to increase organic (non-paid) traffic. It involves optimizing both on-page elements, like content, keywords, and meta tags, as well as off-page factors, such as backlinks and social media signals. By using various techniques, including keyword research, content creation, and technical improvements like site speed and mobile-friendliness, SEO aims to align a website with the algorithms used by search engines like Google. The ultimate goal of SEO is to ensure that a website ranks higher in search results, attracting more visitors and improving user engagement.
No matter how niche or mainstream your market is, great content remains a significant focus for SEO.
