![Page 39: Maximizing Your Visibility Social and SEO SMM 9017 with Suse Barnes Social Media Marketing Program SF State CEL March 17 – 28, 2015](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649dab5503460f94a9a422/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
What is SEO?
• What makes up a number one ranking on a search engine results page?
• Each engine has a different algorithm
Al-go-rithm
a set of rules for solving a problem in a finite number of steps, as for finding the greatest common divisor.
![Page 40: Maximizing Your Visibility Social and SEO SMM 9017 with Suse Barnes Social Media Marketing Program SF State CEL March 17 – 28, 2015](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649dab5503460f94a9a422/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
What is SEO?
• For search engines the algorithm takes into consideration:– The number of keywords in the content– Where the keywords display, are they in the title,
meta data, hyperlinks, headings, alt tags?– What is the keyword relevancy?– How popular is the website? I.e. Link Popularity or
PageRank. How many inbound links are there?– Is the site readable by a search engine AND a
human?– Does the site allow easy indexing?– How often is the site referenced in social media?– How popular is the main author of the site?
