In the last month alone, I had at least 20 people ask me for a proven and cost-effective way to drive traffic to their web site. Is free cost-effective enough? :) Search Engine Optimization is a free online marketing technique, that helps you drive more traffic to your web site and increase your revenues.

Did you know that over 70% of web surfers research and buy products by searching for them in search engines? This means that as you are reading this text, your target customers are using search engines to look for products and services to buy. Do you want your target customers to find YOUR web site, and buy from YOU, or find your competitors’ web sites and buy from them?

Since so many people are using search engines to locate products and services, it is extremely important to be able to direct that traffic to your web site. You can do that by using a process, called search engine optimization.

What is Search engine optimization? Search engine optimization (or SEO) is the process of modifying web page content and meta-information to improve the search engine ranking of the page. Meta-information includes certain HTML tags (title, heading, emphasized text, keyword and description meta-tags), as well as the internal (links between pages on the same site) and external (links between pages on different sites) link structure of a web site.

The search engine optimization process is described, in very simple terms, in the FREE Step by Step Search Engine Optimization Tutorial.
