    Here is how I would define SEO:

    - SEO is the process of optimizing a website to increase the keyword performance of relevant keywords for websites at search engines.

    - SEO is the logical process of attempting to establish relevancy of selected keywords to a website.

    I think SEO is a very nice way to make the website more popular and visible.
    Just like the invisible advertisement.
    I like SEO, also SMO.

    SEO is the process of optimizing your website so that it is aimed to achieve higher ranking in the search engine results pages. SEO doesnt depend on keywords alone, though the current implementation and available technology limits SEO to the creation of content that closely follows the use and style of keywords. Content quality need not depend on keywords alone. In the absence of keywords, the search engine is unable to identify the concept or usage of something, I guess. The closest that technology has come to this point or tangent is LSI.

    SEO is dealing with natural (organic, algorithmic) results in various search engines. Its main goal is to achieve high rankings in search engine result pages (SERP’s) for targeted keyword or key phrases. High positions will bring traffic to the site and possibly turn visitors into customers.

    ON-Page Optimization: Keyword analysis, competitors analysis, Web page analysis, Sitemap creation and submission to Google and Yahoo search engine's. Ect

    OFF-Page Optimization: Free r Paid Directories & Deeplink Directories, social bookmarking, Articles, Press Release, Blog creations and commenting on other blogs, participating in other forums and Google, yahoo & Orkut groups...

    SEO (Search Engine Optimization) in my opinion, is the process of getting the desired results from organic search using whatever tactics you feel comfortable using … so long as you achieve the desired results
