The trick-or-treating, mask-wearing celebrations is almost here but before we all dust off our cat ears and shell out our pumpkins, let’s spend some time on one of the most essential digital marketing activity – Search Engine Optimization!

In today’s World of Digital Marketing, SEO has never been more important than before. Search Engine Optimization is a MUST for every business aiming to compete online.

What is SEO?

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) includes a number of activites conducted to leverage the visibility of your business website and improve its ranking in search results. There are two main parts of SEO, On-Page & Off-Page. On-Page SEO involves behind the scene efforts pertaining to website URLs, headings, subheadings, tags, keyword usage and more. Off-Page SEO efforts are focused on increasing the visibility of the website by working on external elements like link building, social media activates, and more.

Why SEO?

When you plan to enter the digital business world, your first priority is to attract as many visitors as possible, and when it comes to traffic driven by search engines, SEO is one of the most reliable and effective ways. There are many different search engines, but for the sake of working from the top down, we most commonly reference Google, since it’s the leader in the search engine world. Getting your website ranked in Google search with the right keywords can generate tone of traffic as well as business if done correctly.
