What is SEO (Search Engine Optimization)?
Search engine optimization is everything that can be done to make a search engine send more traffic to a web site.
Usually this means defining keywords or key phrases and trying to have your web site listed first (or at least near first) for those key terms.
Search engine optimization is usually divided into two categories of tasks:
On-page optimization
Off-page optimization
On-page optimization is designing your web pages to achieve the best ratings from the search engines. On-page optimization
activities include:
Writing keyword-rich text
Applying good ALT tags to images
Making sure that the web page can be properly "spidered" by all of the search engines
Off-page optimization consists of creating inbound links
to your web page
