What is SEO?
SEO is an acronym; The letters stand for Search Engine Optimization. Search Engine Optimization is a process of increasing the likelihood that your website will rank highly on a Search Engine Results Page or SERP. When a web user types text (keywords) in URL or search bar to look up a service or product, a search engine finds matching websites and lists those relevant websites in a results page for the user to select. When a user clicks on a posted website link, the specific website address page is presented to the user.
What is a search engine?
Search engine is the function to generate search results on a page. Google, the most widely used search engine, uses hundreds of complex algorithms to search (index) and match keywords from the text entered in a search bar to post websites listed on a SERP. Please see Google's story on How a Search Works.
