This infographic explains a common question ‘what is SEO’ in simple, easy to understand terms.
SEO is short for Search Engine Optimization and is the digital marketing practice of working with search engines such as Google, so that your website can be found.
If you've given advice all over Google Plus, it's very easy to forget where all this helpful, sage advice resides. What if you want to search your own posts and comments in a relatively painless way? Try these two tips.

Despite the character limit and the apparent impracticality it causes, Twitter has become a serious platform. These days people use it for job hunting, content marketing, creative discussions, or simply to expand their networks of both private and professional contacts.

Since Google and Twitter broke off their relationship in 2011 and discontinued Google Realtime Search (which showed all public tweets in Google results), Twitter users have been forced to use the default Twitter search. Of course, it works – but the results are not always satisfactory, even when you use the advanced search option.

Their names? WeFollow and Twtrland.

I wouldn't even like to count the hours that I've spent on Google. Most of the time when people search for something they use a standard keyword search.

Although search engines do their best to give you the right results for what you type they don't always manage get it right. Sometimes it takes you a couple of searches to find what you need or you have to look through a few pages of results but there are ways of helping the search engine to help you find it faster.
