Putting The Optimization Into Search Engine Optimization
Search engine optimization is the practice of targeting the search engines with keyword-rich content so that your blog posts, web pages, and other online content has a chance to rank well for the keywords and concepts that are important for your business. But how do you do it?
First, let me say that it’s no easy task. Even if you know how to write search engine friendly content, you have to compete against other businesses in your niche targeting the same keywords. You could try to find the gaps in the market and target those keywords that no one else is going after. But are those keywords valuable? That’s a decision you have to make.
The key to optimizing your web pages are the find the keywords that are just right for your business. They may or may not be the most valuable keywords for your niche, but they are the perfect fit for your business and the customers you want to target. Then, once you identify the perfect keywords, you build pages that are designed to rank well and deliver targeted traffic to those pages consistently.

That’s the trick, isn’t it? The RIGHT keywords.
The way I like to think of it is problem/solution. Someone has a problem, they search for a solution using certain words. You want your page/post to be the answer to their question. In order for that to happen, it’s got to contain those same keywords.
Optimization is much more than just that. You also need to check content, meta tags, title tags, ease of navigation, and many other aspects of the website before it is fully optimized.
