Let’s take the word ’search engine optimization’ or better known in the geek world as SEO, and explain the definition. According to Wikipedia this is what it states:

Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via “natural” or un-paid (“organic” or “algorithmic”) search results as opposed to search engine marketing (SEM) which deals with paid inclusion. Typically, the earlier (or higher) a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine.

So in plain English what does that mean. It means that not only is having a website crucial to the success of your business but you need to have back links, relative meta keywords and quality traffic coming to your website to guarantee new clientele. Once this process is done, then you can sit back and let Google, Bing, and Yahoo website crawlers come daily to snatch up your keywords on your website for information.

Everyone wants to be number one on Google for their relative fields or services. To be on the first page or even in the top ten, its going to take sometime, it just doesn’t happen over night. It takes between 2-4 months for your website to receive the traffic it needs to match your services or niche. Quality back links, the correct keywords for your surrounding cities, and unique information are all ways to get ahead of everyone else.

So why is it when you search for lets say ‘website design stamford ct’ in Google Search, you get really crappy websites on the front page, and it doesn’t pertain to the real information your looking for. Well those crappy websites have been online for 2-4 months and Google sees them having the most relevancy, back links, and quality keywords.
