This is for all you newbies who have heard the phrase seo and wondering what on earth it is all about.
Seo is the short term used for search engine optimization.
It is a process of making your websites optimized for search engines such as google.
Why use seo?
One thing any site needs, regardless of it's purpose, is traffic. You need people to visit your website.
There are many ways you can get traffic and they are all equally effective but the best things in life are free and if you learn seo and implement it, your traffic will be free.
Organic ranking is when you naturally rank high on search engines for your keywords.
This is one of the main types of traffic you want to be chasing.
When someone uses google search, they will normally only click on one of the results that appear on the first page above the fold, so you need to aim for top positions.
