Search Engine OptimizationWhat is SEO?Few years ago Search Engine Optimization was rather independent
discipline only related to Internet Marketing and very often abused by
different individuals. Now as Web and Search Engines developed it is
integral part of wider discipline called Online Marketing (or Digital
Marketing) and is directly connected with Search Engine Marketing (SEM –
advertising through search engines). It is highly recommended that your
website is optimized for Search Engines otherwise it will not be found
among thousands of others and you will never meet with many valuable
customers. What is the difference between SEM and SEO?In short SEM (Search Engine Marketing) is dealing with paid
advertising on Search Engines like: Google, Yahoo or BING (former MSN)
when SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is dealing with so called organic
results which are FREE (you don’t pay for being listed there). What are Organic Results?Search Engines are using extremely complicated algorithms to
determine if your website should be presented as the most appropriate
result for a particular term (keyword) somebody is searching for. How the Search Engine Optimization works?Usually first “optimization” is done by your web developer
unfortunately in most cases (95% at least) it fails to perform. The
reason is that you need a deep understanding of how actually the Search
Engines work and how determine which website is the most valuable for
the Searcher in a particular case. The best practice is to collect
significant amount of data (Google Analytics), combine it with some
other tools and with in depth knowledge of algorithms. For each
website (Business) process of optimization will be a little different,
yet principles are the same. |
