When I started marketing, I assumed I understood SEO. SEO stands for search engine optimization. And I knew that SEO stood for search engine optimization. The better your SEO, the higher your rank on search engines. You know what? I am an SEO genius.
It’s not so. There are indeed many things I didn’t know, and it led me to ask more questions.
Let’s now talk about the many SEO questions I had along the way. But I wasn’t sure who to ask. It’s hoped that it will help you if you have any questions about SEO.
FAQs Answers: You Are Too Confused to Ask
1 What is SEO?
SEO stands for search engine optimization. SEO refers to techniques that make your website more visible in search results, especially for people searching for your brand, product or service through search engines such as Google, Bing and Yahoo.
2 What is the difference between organic and paid results?
Search engines will show organic results if they have an algorithm that matches the search query. Paid or inorganic search results are displayed at the top of a page. Advertisers pay for these links to appear on search engines other than Google.
3 What are meta descriptions?
The meta description is the text below a page displayed in search engine results that describe what it is about. The meta description in this example is “Learn how to create a comprehensive blog post in just nine easy steps.”
Meta descriptions are still important, but not in the same way. Meta descriptions were once a place where you could optimize keywords to allow crawlers to find more information about your page contents. It is more important to write compelling content that encourages readers to click to increase conversion rates from SERP results to your website.
Should my domain name be optimized to include keywords? A keyword should not be included in your primary domain for keyword optimization. This can hurt your SEO. If your company name happens to have a keyword, that’s fine, but don’t go buying inboundmarketingsoftwarebloggingsocialseoemailautomation.com. What do I mean?
What is the best way to know if I use the correct number of keywords on a page?
Unfortunately, I cannot give you an exact number to determine the number of keywords that should be on a page. This is mostly due to the way that keyword optimization is done.
Keyword density is not something you should aim for. Keyword stuffing can lead to penalization. Keep the reader in your mind and only use keywords where it is necessary. There will be enough opportunities for keywords to be used naturally to avoid having to worry about hitting an unnatural number.
6 What is the difference between inbound and internal links?
Internal links are links that point to another page of your website from a page you have on your website. Inbound links refer to other websites linking to your content. Both are important for SEO.
How Many Internal Links Do I Need on Each Page of Content?
You should not include too many keywords in your content. You should only include them if they improve the reader experience.
8: Do I need to know how to do SEO by myself?
It is not necessary to be proficient in search engine optimization. You will need to have a basic understanding of code for some advanced SEO techniques, but not for all.
9 What is robots.txt

10 What is sitemap.xml?
This file contains an index of all pages on your website. This file is a quick reference to search engines for content you wish to index.
