SEO stands for search engine optimization. It’s the process of improving or enhancing your website to increase its ranking on search engines. 
 
Search engines crawl websites, then index the results based on a recipe of requirements. This recipe is known as an algorithm and is designed to offer users a list of quality websites that closely match what they're looking for. SEO activities are like ingredients for the recipe to help search engines deliver quality results. 
 
You can break down the SEO activities into three main techniques: 

• On-page SEO—relates to the content on your website and is what most people understand when talking about SEO activities. 
• Technical SEO—involves the structure or architecture of your website. Search engines prefer websites that are easy to scan and read. Your website needs to be built with clear code and a logical structure. 
• Off-page SEO—helps search engines know your website is reputable and a trusted source of information. Activities such as listing your website in business directories (making sure they’re correct and consistent) or having other reputable sources (e.g. blogs or other sites) link to your website. 

All these activities are important because search engines will see your website as an ideal search result.

Most online traffic is driven by search engines. Organic search results cover more digital real estate, appear more credible to searchers, and receive more clicks than paid advertisements.

There are a few things to consider when enhancing your website for SEO. First, it needs high-quality content that matches your audience’s search queries and establishes credibility and trust. The best way to discover what your audience wants is to conduct keyword research. Not only will this research give you an idea of what content to produce, it will help you rank higher in search results.

In addition to providing your visitors with content that matches what they’re searching for, your website needs to work well from a technical perspective. Search engines like pages that load fast, are easy to crawl, and are easy to understand.
