How search engines work1. Search engines crawl the web via links
2. Search engines decipher and store the code in massive hard drives (datacenters)
3. When we enter a search query, engines return results based on their unique sorting systems (algorithm)

Why ranking mattersHigher rankings in the first few results are
critical to visibility.
A #1 position in Google's search results receives a majority of all click-through traffic.
The #2 position receives 10-15% %, the third 5-10%, the fourth less than 5%, and all others are under 2%.
Highly ranked sites build trust. Consumers view sites as worthy and relatively important.
