Search Engine Optimization, as we discussed in this tutorial, is a term comprised of three important keywords to understand:

1) Search … We look for something (online and offline). We quoted some examples to make our point.
2) Engine … What is the role of engine? Some examples…
3) Optimization … Getting ready … When a site is ready. It gets optimized and indexed by search crawlers and spiders.

SEO is all about getting ready to get indexed in search engines’ databases.

There are three techniques:

1) White Hat SEO technique … Legal and standard techniques …. No negative means are used to boost the seo page ranking.
2) Gray Hat Techniques …. Somewhat debatable. Between white and black.
3) Black Hat Techniques … Illegal, (in some cases, immoral) and against set standards and criterion.

If a website is found victim of black hat techniques, it’s penalized.

Then we discussed in detail the difference between on-site and off-site seo. We elaborated our points with easy to understand and practical examples.
