What is SEO? – this is no longer a frequently asked question. One should rather be asking “why is SEO important for my business?”.
The term SEO has, in fact, become a familiar and widely used acronym used in both formal and casual conversations which seldom requires an explanation. More importantly, it has also become easily the single most important key to the success of any business.
SEO is the activity of improving organic search engine rankings, and thereby maximising the quantity and quality of your website traffic, by creating relevant and authoritative page content pertinent to your business, products and services.
Your website search engine ranking determines the number of sales leads you will receive via your website. The higher your rankings, the higher the frequency of sales leads you will receive. For ecommerce websites, your search engine ranking directly affects your sales.

How then should SMEs best prepare themselves to weather the coming economic storm?
Excellent website designers are expensive, and for good reason when you are paying for expertise that is in very short supply in South Africa.
And depending on a website designer is also risky especially in an industry where career mobility is so high.
It makes sense therefore to make use of website design templates and website design software that allows you to create great custom design websites dependably and affordably.
