Basically it is the practice of making sure your website is properly interpreted by search engines, such as Google, so that when people are searching for your business, or the products you sell, they will be able to find you. Of course earning the prestigious #1 rank and being the first page listed in search results on Google is the ultimate prize.
The Google search engine is always evolving and many of the illegitimate techniques for getting that #1 spot have been eradicated. Why? Well Google wants to make sure that when you search for something you are guaranteed to find an answer on the first page of results and allowing people to “buy” the #1 spot doesn’t always give the end user a good experience. Besides if you want to buy your way onto Google search results the easiest way is via Google Ads (see our Marketing & Online Advertising Services)
- content and keywords, including meta data that is not visible on your site. Content should be frequently updated and original.
- the number and quality of links to your website. The more other people talk about your website the more relevant you become.
- social media -how many +1s, likes, tweets, and shares your page has.
- the performance of your website – not only how fast, but how many errors, broken links etc. are all factored in to your ranking.
