SEO Glossary

Search engine optimization (SEO) is a series of tactics used to improve a website's position within the organic search results of a search engine for a specific keyword, or phrase. It's function is meant to increase the website's natural ranking in search results, which would as a result, increase the traffic to the site. The theory is that most users click on the first few links of a search result at a higher degree then further down the page. It is the desire of webmasters to rank as high on a search result for their targeted keywords. A variety of methods can be used to obtain this result and are best discussed in a variety of online SEO articles and tutorials.
