SEO stands for "search engine optimization." It is the process of improving your website to increase visitors from Google, Microsoft Bing and other search engines, whenever people search for:

Products you sell.
Services you provide.
Information on topics in which you have expertise or experience.
The better visibility your pages have in search results, the more likely you are to be found and visited.
