What is SEO?
SEO stands for “search engine optimization.” It is the process of getting traffic from the “free,” “organic,” “editorial” or “natural” search results on search engines.
The major search engines such as Google, Bing and Yahoo all have primary search 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. It should not be confused with Search Engine Marketing (SEM) where you pay search engines to have your site or pages listed.
Both SEO and SEM are deemed as marketing with the aim in increasing your visibility in search engines. Net Solutions is able to assist in both SEO and SEM. But sometimes, you need to take a step back and evaluate your website before you focus on SEO and SEM activities.
What is a Website Assessment?
A Website assessment examines your website, prior to any SEO or SEM activities.
Why is this important? SEO or SEM will aim in increasing your visibility in search engines, but if you have a poorly constructed website, the increased traffic to your site might be harmful if they have a negative experience while on your site.
Believe it, or not, many Website owners do not know how their website is performing, or how it stacks up against the competition.
