Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is the practice of improving the quality and quantity of website traffic to a website from search engines. Your positioning and appearance in search engines improves with this optimisation.
How do I optimize my website SEO?
The Forex industry is highly competitive so making your website stand out requires research. The first step is choosing which keywords you will use. Then you will need to research similar websites and your competitors to see how they rank, so you can determine how to do better.
You can then place keywords throughout your content. It is very important to write quality content rather than overusing keywords as your overall goal is to engage your audience.
