Take this challenge: Define SEO (Warriors learn the best way to do SEO)

[ciel]

Hi there,

I was just wondering how well you define SEO & what is your way of doing it in best possible manner. My words:

SEO is of two types: On site & Off site.

On site SEO is done to improve overall website user experience which will lead to higher search engine rankings (that's why websites focusing on better user experience haven't got affected by Google latest algorithm update).

Off site SEO is done to make sure your website is gaining popularity & authority in your niche. Naturally it happens with people visiting your website & sharing it with others on their website, blog or social networks. But we do utilize manual SEO services for off site SEO.

So what's your take, how do you define SEO & what is your best way to do it? Thanks for your replies in advance, hope this thread can help many trying to do SEO the right way.

Cheers
Ciel!

You've described what it does... not defined what it is.

SEO could be defined as a process or systematic set of actions
instituted for the purpose of improving the "visibility" of a particular
web site within the natural or organic search results.

Such actions, processes or systems may be accomplished through
techniques and strategies relating to the site or page itself or through
other sites.

SEO is the process in which a website owner tries to get top rankings on Search Engines like Yahoo, google, and bing(mainly google) in order to drive traffic and sales.

Thanks for correcting me, yeah I was more focused on getting it done right rather than defining it
