4. SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION (SEO)
is the process of increasing the quality and quantity of website traffic by increasing the
visibility of a website or a web page to users of a web search engine.
SEO refers to the improvement of unpaid results (known as "natural" or "organic" results) and
excludes direct traffic/visitors and the purchase of paid placement.
SEO may target different kinds of searches, including image search, video search, academic
search,news search, and industry-specific vertical search engines.
Optimizing a website may involve editing its content, adding content, and modifying HTML and
associated coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and remove barriers to the
indexing activities of search engines like Google, Yahoo etc.[citation needed] Promoting a site to
increase the number of backlinks, or inbound links, is another SEO tactic. By May 2015, mobile
search had surpassed desktop search.
5. As an Internet marketing strategy, SEO considers how search engines work,
the computer-programmed algorithms that dictate search engine behavior,
what people search for, the actual search terms or keywords typed into
search engines, and which search engines are preferred by their targeted
audience. SEO is performed because a website will receive more visitors
from a search engine the higher the website ranks in the search engine
results page (SERP). These visitors can then be converted into customers.
SEO differs from local search engine optimization in that the latter is
focused on optimizing a business' online presence so that its web pages will
be displayed by search engines when a user enters a local search for its
products or services. The former instead is more focused on national or
international searches.
6. SEARCH ENGINES

the phrase
• “search engines” into the Search Bar to attain access to several
different internet sites that specifically aid in searching.
Select a search engine.
• Google.
• Ask.
• Bing.
• Dogpile.
• DuckDuckGo.
• Yahoo.
• Etc.
7. Keyword Search
• A Keyword search looks for words anywhere in the record.
Keyword searches are a good substitute for a subject search when
you do not know the standard subject heading. Keyword may also
be used as a substitute for a title or author search when you have
incomplete title or author information. You may also use the
Guided Keyword search option to combine search elements, group
terms, or select indexes or fields to be searched.

set because any of those words are valid using the OR operator.
