         In simple terms, SEO stands for "Search Engine Optimization" means to be able to stand out in the eyes of search engines. However, the process is not as simple as it is simply described here. SEO is the process of getting traffic from free, organic, editorial or natural search results in search engines.

       Search engine optimization is a set of methods and techniques that try to ensure that whenever a user (using a search engine) searches for something on the Internet (called an organic search), relevant web pages appear in the results. Not only should it be included, but it should also be well positioned (that is, it should appear on the first page of search results, or in the first few results, to the user).

       Since organic search is the most prominent way for people to discover and access content online, a good SEO strategy is essential to improving the quality and quantity of traffic to your website. Remember that the higher a website is in search results, the more people will see it.




    Good SEO involves many different activities such as:


   •  Identifying relevant keywords for good search traffic potential

      3.   Quantity of organic traffic This is the number of users who reach your site through organic search results. Users are more likely to click on search results that appear near the top of the SERP. This is why it is important to use your SEO strategy to rank relevant pages so that you can rank your pages as high as possible. The more high-quality visitors you attract to your site, the more likely you will see an increase in activity on your site.
