Search engine optimization (SEO) is a must-have for any business, whether you're just starting out or have been around for years.
One study reports that a whopping 89 percent of consumers turn to a search engine to find information on a product or service before buying. That's a huge opportunity not to be missed.
There are lots of awesome SEO agencies and people who can help you do SEO the right way. Sadly, there are also plenty of not-so-legitimate SEO practitioners using questionable tactics that might generate positive immediate results, only to bite you in the behind later by getting you in trouble with Google. And once you get penalized by Google, it takes an enormous amount of effort to get back into their good graces.
