Search Engine Optimization FAQ's

What is Search Engine Optimization (SEO)?

Search Engine Optimization, or SEO - for short, is a method of making a website 'better' in the realm of the search engine world. It impacts the visibility of a website and helps the website to rank higher in the searches (naturally and organically). Naturally and organically are terms that are used to describe that the website comes up higher in the searches without having to pay for online advertising. So, since it comes up naturally and organically, the search engine optimization helps the website to have a greater value. Advertising is a use-it-and-it's-gone kind of thing, whereas, search engine optimization continues to help the website, long after it is finished. Search engine optimization is well worth it's price, if done properly.

How long does Search Engine Optimization (SEO) take to do to a website?

Proper search engine optimization is a lengthy process. The more that is done to your website, the higher your website will rank. Even once you do the recommended things, there are things that will need to be updated every so often to keep the website fresh.

To maximize your SEO efforts, you'll want to analyze your website traffic daily, during and after the process so that you know what specific elements are helping your website the most. Keep in mind that some effects of the search engine optimization may not be seen until months after it has already been done to your website.

If Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is such a great thing, why doesn't everyone do it ?

Not everyone knows how to perform search engine optimization techniques. And, because of this, many people don't want to hire someone else to do it for them because it is generally an expensive service. It is a time-consuming process to do to/for a website. Most people don't realize, though, that the benefits will far outweigh the initial cost of the optimization to the website.
