SEO stands for “search engine optimization.” It is the process of getting traffic from the “free,” “organic,” “editorial” or “natural” listings on search engines. All major search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing have such results, where web pages and other content such as videos or local listings are shown and ranked based on what the search engine considers most relevant to users. The goal of foundational SEO isn't to cheat or "game" the search engines. The purpose of SEO is to:
Create a great, seamless user experience.
Communicate to the search engines your intentions so they can recommend your website for relevant searches.
