#2: What is Organic SEO and Paid SEO?

Organic SEO involves the techniques used to get the business on the top search results for a keyword for FREE using Google’s algorithm.

While in Paid SEO the advertiser pays the search engine to display their “ad” on the top or the below. The positioning of the ad depends on the relevancy and bid.

#3: What are meta tags and why are they useful in SEO?

One of the most asked SEO FAQs is do we still need meta tags? The answer is yes.

Meta tags are the “title tags” and the “meta description” added to a page to define a title and a small description about that page. The meta tags are the first thing that a user sees when your website is displayed in the organic search results.

Meta tags are not only important for the search engine crawlers to know more about your page content. But also important to increase your conversion rate. By writing a compelling content you can convince the users to click and convert.

If the domain name naturally has the keyword then it is fine. But if the sole reason is keyword optimization then beware it can in fact harm your SEO.

#5: What number is the right number?

The exact number of keywords which should be used in a page cannot be said. It depends on the number of words on that page. But still the exact keyword phrase should be included at least two times in that page.

But it is also important to avoid “keyword stuffing”. Which means that the keyword should not be just placed abruptly in the content to increase search engine ranking. On the contrary keyword stuffing may result you in penalization.

Include the keywords in a natural manner and keep your users in mind while framing the content. A good content writer will find ample opportunities to include the keyword naturally.

#6: Are Internal and Inbound Links different?
