    SEO is short fort Search Engine Optimization, techniques that can help to rank your website better in search engines. There are probably hundreds or thousands of ways to improve your ranking by little ways, but I can't go much into those details since I'm not really a SEO dude. :p You'll probably see more tips by other posters. ;)

    Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via "natural" ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results. Typically, the earlier (or higher) a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, and industry-specific vertical search engines. This gives a web site web presence.

    SEO is two things.

    On-site: This means putting your "keywords" or targeted phrases in your title tags, meta descrips, h1, h2, h3, and in your body of content. Content on each page should be at minimum 250+ words. You should have your keyword phrases about 1.5%-2% of the content. Meaning for every 250 words, you have your keyword 5 times.

    Off-Site: This means getting links from reputable sites. No-follow, do-follow don't worry. Just get your site out there. Write articles, use anchor text <---an example and link back to your site using your keyword or phrase.

    Note: Most SEO people forget that it's not about keyword stuffing or following all of these steps. You have to have site that converts your hard earned visitors into profit. So put good copy on your site and have a good offer and capture people's information.

    That is all for now.

    SEO is an industry that grew around search engines...the big G in particular ;)...It's about figuring out what you have to do when your site is not "doing well" in G(...)

    SEO is a learning process. SEO is about understanding how search engine technology works. SEO is about learning to master Googledance ;)

    Seo ?
    ask Google about it
    you don't need to start a thread !

    anyway i think SEO Mean "So E-mail Me" so it must be SEM but everyone say SEO because its easier to pronounce .
    but !
    in this forum seo means Search Engine Optimization

    Pick a good ebook on SEO to learn SEO as it's important to your website, it's about optimizing your site to get organic traffic from search engines without spending money to advertise to get traffic.

    People pay a lot of money to get that kind of information, and I think it should stay that way. Keyword research is the most important part of your plan, and should be left to a professional (one who you are paying).

    Waw. ! Really nice and short question. But a single thread is not enough to explain you the all concepts and tactics of SEO. SEO is the process of making more traffic to your site as well as increasing your page rank. if you need more details about seo you can go for some online blogs , article, or e books. That will provide better knowledge about seo than here what you get. so undergo some little research on SEO. Good luck.

    Hi

    Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via "natural" or un-paid ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results. Typically, the earlier (or higher) a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, and industry-specific vertical search engines. This gives a web site web presence.

    As an Internet marketing strategy, SEO considers how search engines work and what people search for. Optimizing a website primarily involves editing its content and HTML and associated coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and to remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines.
