All you need to know about SEO basics and how it can benefit your business....
SEO stands for “search engine optimisation” and is an integral area of digital marketing that works on the organic (unpaid) growth of a websites visibility in search engine results. It’s actually a lot of things all coming together to create a desired result....imagine a digital jigsaw puzzle all coming together to create a perfect picture for Google to hang on their wall!
With Google picking up a staggering 75,000 searches per second (!), it goes without saying that you really need to be clued up on how to get your business to the top of those searches.
HOW? Well.....listen up.
Let’s just compare SEO to a post on a social media platform - an image or video that you hope is eye catching and engaging enough to stop your target from scrolling. With a Google or Bing search, someone is already searching for something, they are at their keyboard looking for your services. They WANT to find you. It's about making sure your website contains the keywords on the right pages that will help guide them to you. Like a moth to a flame.
