We are living at an exciting time – the digital age. Thanks to the internet, web 2.0, and new technology, our lives are so much easier. It’s the source of commerce and businesses, the avenues of success and a route for businesses to excel. So it is without a doubt that any business existing today needs an online presence to be successful in this digital world. Marketing being the backbone for any business requires adapting to the latest strategies to optimize online marketing. Actually, all online marketing efforts ultimately need results from the search engines. Therefore, SEO should be the stem of all online marketing. With millions of websites being made every day, the competition to be on top of the search engine is obviously tough. To compete, your website needs to first be visible. This means your website has to generate some kind of traffic. This is actually difficult since there are no clear steps or rules on doing this nor are there any shortcuts to achieve genuine results. The most important stage of SEO is ON PAGE OPTIMIZATION. It involves tweaking of the web page layout, content, script, Meta tags, titles and others that help the search engines find the web pages easily. To put it simply, this is just the first step in preparing your website to be search engine-friendly. This can help your website have a fighting chance and rank better on the search engine results. Keep in mind that traffic alone does not guarantee high rankings. You need to have quality content and a great UI design as well. The second stage of SEO would be the OFF PAGE OPTIMIZATION. This involves a lot of repetitious tasks such as directory submissions, reciprocal link building, forum posting, blog commenting, article submissions and so on. A lot time consuming work, but very effective. These outside links will improve the online visibility of your website, and there are countless ways and sources of doing it. For example, you could use Google AdWords to post your own advertisements all over the internet to drive traffic to your website.
