AN SEO INTRODUCTION FOR BEGINNERS: WHAT IS SEO?

SEO is a term that you hear on the web more and more, and especially in the marketing context. but what is it and why is it so important for bloggers and marketers?

The abbreviation SEO comes from the English translation “Search Engine Optimization”. Search engine optimization is, very simply explained the art of appearing high in Google search results with its website.

Because so many people use Google to search for goods and services, it is obviously attractive for companies selling these goods and services to appear high up in search results in order to get seen. A high ranking on an important search phrase (keyword) leads to more visitors to the website, and more visitors to the website (hopefully) translates into more customers.
