Search engine optimisation should not be confused with search engine marketing – or Google Adwords, if you will. Search engine marketing is about paying Google to rank your site higher in the search results. This is done by bidding on different keywords. Unlike search engine marketing, search engine optimisation is not paid; one can not pay to get higher up in the organic search result, but must instead work with the content and their web pages to deserve a higher ranking in the search results.

SEO is often called the “forgotten marketing exercise”. Many companies pump millions into marketing each year, without thinking about the most commonly used way to their website: via Google’s search results. But how do you become more visible in Google’s search results? In short, it is about two simple things: Relevance & Authority.
Relevance & authority
Google always strives to present the most relevant search results to its visitors. If you do not have content that corresponds to what the person is looking for, then you will not be visible in the search result. Slightly simplified explained: If you have not written an article about “chocolate muffins” when someone searches for “chocolate muffins”, then you will not be able to appear in the search result – you do not have the content the user is looking for. If you do not have the content, you can not get the traffic either.

However, SEO is also about authority. Once Google has selected all the sites that offer content that matches what the user is searching for, the results are sorted by how much Google trusts the site – that is, by authority. Authority is a mathematical expression and is expressed, among other things, in how many people link to your website.
The logic is that the more people who link to your website, the better the content must be – and the more trustworthy, or authoritative, Google considers you to be. Google gives you a score from 0-10 (where 10 is best), to tell you something about how trustworthy your site is. This score is called PageRank and is one of several signals Google uses to measure your authority. Simply put, the higher the authority Google perceives you to have, the higher your website will usually rank in the search results. Provided you have content that matches what the user is searching for, of course.
