Search Engine Optimisation, or SEO, is the range of techniques used to get a website found on page one of Google.
There is no one silver bullet. There isn’t one thing you can do that will guarantee optimisation success. Activities for a committed SEO strategy include link building, writing lots of information and looking into the technical health of your website.
To get ahead of your competitors you need to give Google all the clues you possibly can. And these clues are what’s called optimisation techniques. The more clues you have, and the better quality those clues are, the more you’ll win in the SEO space.
It can take 6 months and even up to 3 years for optimisation to get results, so SEO is a long-term commitment and strategy.
