What is SEO? The Complete Guide
Search Engine Optimization Explained by America's Leading Experts
Understanding SEO Fundamentals
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is the practice of improving your website to increase its visibility when people search for products or services related to your business on search engines like Google, Bing, and others. The better visibility your pages have in search results, the more likely you are to attract prospective customers.
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization, which is the practice of increasing both the quality and quantity of website traffic, as well as exposure to your brand, through non-paid (organic) search engine results.
Why SEO Matters for Your Business
SEO is crucial because:
- 93% of online experiences begin with a search engine - SEO helps you capture this traffic
- SEO leads have a 14.6% close rate compared to outbound leads (1.7%)
- 75% of users never scroll past the first page of search results
- SEO provides 24/7 visibility unlike paid advertising
