search engine optimisation (SEO)
get your business found online
what is SEO?
Search Engine Optimisation, otherwise known as SEO is the name given to any activity, both on and off site, that exists to improve rankings on search engines such as Google or Bing. Search engines rank and reference pages that they consider to be relevant and authoritative to the user who is searching using your keywords.
For your website to be seen by consumers, search engines need to know it exists by not only finding your website, but by being able to 'crawl' it to find the content that it deems to be 'relevant' and 'authoritative' to the user. Although design and UX usability are important in web design today, a strong SEO strategy is still needed, as although search engines are becoming more clever, they are still fundamentaly robots that read code.
Once these search engines have indexed your website, depending on what the search user has inputted as a search term (know in marketing as 'keywords') the consumer will then be shown a page of results from various related websites which is where you hope to show up, right there on the search results page (SERP).

keeping up with change
SEO is not a one time campaign, it is an ongoing strategy which your business should have a plan and resources for.
As well as the more traditional SEO tactics such as optimising URLs, meta titles and meta descriptions, it is just as important to optimise your website for the latest search engine algorithm changes and search trends.
1/5 of searches made on Google are voice searches (2022) and this is set to rise!
Optimising your website for voice search is also fundamental today as 1/5 of searches made on Google are now by voice. Voice search has become popular over the years due to the ease of speaking to your assistant rather than typing, getting faster results. If your website is not optimised for voice search and 'long-tail keywords' then the next time someone asks 'Alexa', 'Google' or 'Siri' for a business like yours, you will be found nowhere!
Just as important is mobile search optimisation with half of all internet traffic being on mobile smartphones, the mobile eCommerce market is huge! There is nothing more frustrating then trying to navigate a website on your phone that is not optimised for mobile.
