Getting an audience to come to your website isn’t simply about writing a blog post, publishing it and then hoping that people will find it. In order to cultivate a true audience, you need to think carefully about the types of content you publish that will be great for SEO.
It might be an oversimplification, but if you can boil any successful business down to two things, they are: a great product, and great conversion. That's right: no matter how great you make your product and service, it's not worth a dime if those dimes are not rolling in. To sell a product, you need to call your clients' attention to it, and that's called advertising.
When creating content to market your business online, it's essential to understand what needs to be incorporated to rank successfully with Google and other search engines, this is known as search engine optimisation (SEO).
