What is SEO?
SEO is the practice of improving and promoting a web site in order to increase the number of visitors the site receives from search engines. There are many aspects to SEO, from the words on your page to the way other sites link to you on the web. Sometimes SEO is simply a matter of making sure your site is structured in a way that search engines understand.
Search Engine Optimization isn't just about "engines." It's about making your site better for people too.

Google Devalues Everything We Have Control Over
• Anything webmasters, developers, marketers, etc – have control over when it comes to link building is quickly being devalued by Google in an attempt to make truly “organic” search results.
• Don’t build links – build relationships, create worthy content
