    Its Latent Semantic Indexing. By using LSI algorithm, Google bot can now read and understand web content in more natural way. It can understand the main keywords with their synonyms and variations also. With the help of LSI indexing, Google is now giving more emphasis on natural content that uses synonyms and variations with main target keywords so that the user or reader find it friendly and easy to read and understand.

    LSI obviously represents terms and documents in a rich, high-dimensional space, allowing the underlying, semantic relationships between terms and documents to be exploited during searching.

    Latent semantic indexing adds an important step to the document indexing process. In addition to recording which keywords a document contains, the method examines the document collection as a whole, to see which other documents contain some of those same words.

    LSI is considered to be the most reliable white hat SEO technique. It means you should target keywords that's around your keyword using synonyms so that search engines could understand your need and give rankings accordingly.

    LSI stands for latent semantic indexing helps search engine to find out what a web page is all about. It means that you should not focus on a single keyword when optimizing your web page and getting links.

    Semantics: The meaning of a word, phrase, sentence, or text. Latent Semantic Indexing is the process of analysing the meaning of the contents of a page and indexing it accordingly. LSI arose as a direct reaction to keyword stuffing and meaningless page content full of nothing more than random keywords and no subject-related material or quality content. Now content can be interpreted by analysing synonyms relating to the keywords of the page. LSI can have the unexpected affect that it may influence the keywords that your site is ranked for.

    LSI stands for two terms: 1 - Latent Semantic Indexing
    2 - Local Search Index

    Basically what it means is that Google better understands how words relate to one another and can understand the topic of a page. The way to use it is by using lots of synonyms and related terms on a page. So if you were trying to rank for "cats", instead of using the exact word "cats" on your page over and over, you should include lots of terms that are related to cats like "felines," "kittens," "meow," "kitty litter," "purring," etc. as google knows that all of these things have to do with cats.

    In reality it should happen fairly naturally, since a good article on cats would include many of those words already. If Google didn't have this kind of topical analysis and were instead relying on something like keyword density, you could take an article about car insurance and insert the work "cats" into it a whole bunch of times and it would be the same as an actual article about cats as far as keyword density is concerned. LSI prevents this from happening. Personally I think keyword density doesn't matter at all anymore now that Google has LSI instead.

    LSI - Latent Semantic Indexing play important role in search algorithm. LSI means related terms or synonyms which helps search engines to find relevant pages to show in SERPs. For Example if user search for "web design" it will show links not only related web design but also related to web designing, website design, designing website etc.

    Latent semantic indexing, other wise known as LSI, is not what is it is frequently claimed to be. It is not something that a webpage can be optimized for, so that it conforms to LSI standards. There is no such thing as LSI standards. In fact, latent semantic indexing cannot be described to a layman in simple terms.
    LSI cannot be used to improve your search engine listings since it is nothing more than a concept. A very mathematically complex concept, sure, but a concept nevertheless, and concepts cannot be used for tangible results. However, there is a guide to what Google are trying to achieve in the use of the words within the term. In the context in which it used, the word semantics here means the meaning of words, and specifically the meaning to which words are put, and what is being conveyed, in the way that the term is used
