HOW DOES SEO WORK?
Search engines such as Google and Bing use computer programs to “crawl” pages on the web, going from site to site, collecting information about those pages and putting them in an index. Next, algorithms analyze pages in the index, taking into account hundreds of “ranking Factors or signals,” to determine the order pages should appear in the search engine.
Search Ranking Factors are considered ambassadors for the aspects of user experience. Our Pie Graph of SEO Factors Breaks down the factors into six main categories and weights them by overall importance to SEO. The most Important to increase visibility are content creation, prescribed domains and keywords, but these are not the only factors you should focus on. Refer to Pie Graph.
The Search algorithms use these factors to surface relevant pages to provide the user with an efficient search experience. Therefore optimizing your site and content with these factors in mind will help your pages rank higher in the search results.
