What is SEO?

Search engine optimisation (SEO) is a digital marketing tactic that includes the quality and quantity of your website traffic from organic search results. This is known as free or natural traffic. There are a variety of techniques used to enhance your SEO strategy, helping you improve your ranking on search engine results pages (SERPs).

An essential part of a successful SEO strategy is to optimise your website, using relevant and valuable keywords. This increases your ranking for these keywords, and content marketing plays a vital role in this process.

The Role of Content Marketing in SEO Strategies

You may have written the most engaging and informative piece of content, but it doesn't show up in search results. Driving traffic to your website is done by optimising your content, using the relevant keywords you have researched and analysed. The keywords are the words and phrases used by your audience when searching for products, services, or information your business provides.

When you prioritise content marketing in your SEO strategy, you provide new and informative pieces that uses your selected keywords, as a result, content marketing adds value to your website. Google loves new and updated content. Freshly published content is crawled and indexed quickly, helping to boost your ranking in SERPs.

Valuable Content and Backlinks

Even if you have the basic understanding of SEO, you know how important it is to acquire backlinks. You can acquire backlinks naturally by producing high quality, unique, and relevant content, helping to improve your domain authority (DA).

If your content is valuable, other websites will want to link back to it for reference. This is often the help you need to promote your content.
