SEO

Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of growing the quality and quantity of website traffic by increasing the visibility of a website or a web page to users of a web search engine. SEO refers to the improvement of unpaid result (known as “natural” or “organic” results) and excludes direct traffic and the purchase of paid placement. Additionally, it may target different kinds of searches, including  image search, video search, academic search, news search, and industry –specific vertical search engines. Promoting a site to increase the number of backlinks, or inbound links, is another SEO tactic.

SEO differs from local search engine optimization in that the letter is focused on optimizing business’ online presence so that its web pages will be displayed by search engines when a user enters a local search for its products or services. The former instead is more focused on national or international searches.
