2. What Is Search Engine Optimization?
Search Engine Optimization is the process of improving the visibility of a
website on organic ("natural" or un-paid) search engine result pages
(SERPs), by incorporating search engine friendly elements into a
website.
SEO is typically divided into two main groups –
On page SEO: Everything on the page. This includes all the content that
you put up on your website and the HTML tags that tell the Search
Engines about your content. This aspect of SEO is completely under
your control.
Off page SEO: Everything off the page. This primarily includes all the links
that come to your website from other websites. This is partially in your
control however with great strategy it can help achieve your SEO
objective.

3. Why Search Engine Optimization &
Marketing?
According to this study by the National Retail Federation, search marketing — including SEO — was the
most effective source for acquiring new customers in 2014 for 85 percent of online retailers.
85% of all traffic on the Internet is referred from search engines
90% of all users don’t look past the first 30 results (most view only top 10)
Many websites aren’t even indexed, are poorly optimized and get very little traffic
Cost-effective advertising
Clear and measurable ROI
 Operates under this assumption:
More (relevant) traffic + Good Conv. Rate = More Sales/Leads

code

 Consistency - All of your content will be styled consistently across the site.
 Content - Content is perhaps one of the most important aspects of SEO. More specifically, your content needs to be relevant and helpful.
 Site Speed - Site speed is super important when building your site there are lots that you can do to keep it fast.
 Responsive Design - Mobile is a huge part of the internet and it’s only going to get bigger, so having a responsive design is essential.
 Navigation - When building a new site it is a good idea to start by thinking about navigation and keep it simple as per user experience.

7. Perfect Keyword Selection
Keywords are the driving force behind all effective Internet searches. They
dictate how search engines rank websites; users type a certain search term,
then search engines scan the web for information on the subject before
displaying them on their results.
Keyword selection is more of an art than a science. Every page on your site
should have two sorts of keywords:
Short-tail: these are your more general and common keywords. As these are
popular, competition will be high and there is little chance of your business
being ranked on the first page of search results.
Long-tail: these are more specific and consist of three or more words. Such
phrases are almost always better than one or two-word searches. Why? They
tend to have a smaller search volume but this means that they are easier to
claim in terms of increasing your website’s search engine rank.

8. Rich Content Placement
Historically, having the right technical SEO (on page, site
architecture) was the first stage but using similar SEO strategies to
better optimize the content being created on page is becoming just
as important especially in light of Google algorithm changes such as
Panda, Penguin and more recently Hummingbird.
The content on your website should be authentic, helpful and easy
to understand for the users.
Quality content goes a long way into increasing traffic on the
website and makes it easier to earn backlinks from other websites.
The Quality of Content on your website will determine the fate of
your Online Marketing campaign. If your content can hold users on
your website it will definitely appeal to Search Engines as well.

9. Quality Backlinks Creation
Today larger brands attract a higher majority of new links, more referring
domains as well as generating more deeper linking to relevant content
areas, the infographic attached provides some more insights in the
opportunity of a backlink strategy and how it can benefit your
performance.
2015 marks a new era in link building. Even though earning links is far
more labor intensive, it is still important. You simply cannot have a top-
ranking site without generating top-quality links.

10. On- Page Optimization
Search engine optimization has significantly changed in
recent years much to the amiss of Google’s guidelines.
As you move into 2015 and look to grow your website’s
organic traffic, on-page SEO will be most important for
you to get better results.
It’s important to think of on-page SEO as the foundation
for all of your other SEO efforts, not just as something
helpful that should be implemented eventually.
