In this modern day and time we are very dependent on technology. We cannot think of a day without the support of our gadgets. We have become so reliant on them that if we were to solely rely on road maps for a new journey on the road, eventually, we would get lost along the way. Therefore, we take our smart phones out that have a built-in satellite navigation (Google Map) we enter the post code and we get clear and accurate directions to our destination. It is not always possible to even rely on a passer by for directions as I am pretty sure they themselves are using their smart phone too.

Keywords are the words which you think is the target for your business. The words you think represent your product, brand and locations, you incorporate those keywords in your site to make sure that search engines rank you for it. By using words in a clever way to describe the product you're selling or even a service you provide, it's best to do a bit of research yourself to find out the niche relevant and then eventually apply them carefully near the content intended for sale or service. For maximum Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) you use those keywords in your website titles, descriptions, on site and offsite contents.
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation. when we talk about SEO we mean two things; Organic SEO or Paid SEO. With Organic SEO you build them naturally as I have explained them above. In regards to Paid SEO, you will be at the top as long as you have paid to be displayed or for Pay per Click. The best combination is do the best organic SEO based on your product, service and business model then spend money for Paid SEO.

You will have to focus the content very precisely on your products, services and location. With appropriate keywords, you get attention from Google, yahoo, bing and other search engines.
Search engines have their own ranking style. They mostly use an algorithm to calculate the sites value and importance. With this technique they identify the white hat and black hat techniques. At times they block the black hat techniques. Search engines prefer the natural contents with important keywords.
It is important to write the contents for humans not machines. Some people make mistakes and write the contents for machines like a robotic type of content which proves to have a negative impact. They will initially receive the ranking, however, eventually they fail the main purpose of the goal intended. The visitors realise this after reading a few lines having not understood most of the content. This will affect your viewing as it won't take long for them to leave your site once they had identified that it isn't relevant to them. That mistake will not bring them back to you.
