The “optimize” in search engine optimization includes all elements of SEO, i.e. content, link building, technical website-wide and individual page optimization. Within our services we think of “Optimization” as your website’s Technical SEO and “On-Page” Optimization. We also look at User Experience, Brand Signals, and Conversion Optimization, as these are important for SEO.
