IT - Information technology
Human life easy with web search engines. But with day to day growth in web,
proper information on the user search query is becoming difficult. User search
some information on the web, search engines results in a large amount of web
pages from his database in response of search related queries. For any user not
possible to access all web pages. So need of a search engines (SE) that provide
relevant information to a user search query. The technique called search engine
optimization (SEO), to do so. SEO is a method that uses search principles for
search engines to provide the higher ranking to the more suitable webpage. It can
be done by applying various pages ranking algorithms.
Ever since its introduction, the internet has become an important platform for
businesses to interact with their customers. With the number of web users
continuously rising on a daily basis and surpassing half of the earth’s population
in 2017, the need for companies to provide an online presence has become
undeniable. As a result of inherent growth, the internet has been cluttered with
information that inhibits effective navigation and the location of key knowledge.
Therefore, search engines have become increasingly important to access relevant
information with many people utilizing them as a starting point for their web
navigation. An indicator of their success can be seen by the search engine of
Google accomplishing the feat of one billion unique monthly visitors as the first
website in the world in 2011. While searches encompass a broad spectrum, most
commonly researched topics are in relation to products and services underlining
the importance to businesses.
Through the introduction of the Knowledge Graph in 2012, Google has established
further optimization for its search engine and provided an important
technological advancement for the future of information search. Defined as a
database shaped by user searches and keyword applications, this machine
learning technology provides information and recommendations beyond regular
search terms to provide users an all-encompassing overview and incite further
learning. While primarily developed for search enhancements, businesses have
Research Aim
The aim of this study is to analyze the utilization of SEO and Knowledge Graphs.
Firstly, business practices of SEO are studied. Secondly, research engages
common SEO practices and establishes current and potential usage on Knowledge
Graphs to increase businesses visibility and reach.
This section describes the core concepts of SEO: search engine, search engine
optimization, the key methods and White & Black Hat SEO.
1.1.1 Search engine and Search engine result page (SERP)
A web search engine is software, such as Google and Bing, which collects data
from websites that are stored in databases and from there provide the most
relevant result for the searched topic. The search engine shows search engine
result pages (SERPs) consisting of a list of indexed websites for specific keywords.
The highlighted sections on the Google search result page are discussed further:
➢ The search box is the input section of a search engine where users can place
their word, phrase, or sentence. The search can also be made by using a speech
by recording and pressing the microphone image in the right corner of the search
box.
➢ Paid advertising is also known as Price-per-click (PPC) shows the results which
are bought by companies from the search engine. This is an advertisement
section where the results are shown based on the variables such as relevancy, bid
amount and click-through rate.
➢ Organic results are appearing in this section exclusively based on their quality
and relevancy.
Search engines are important, because they offer effective access to a wide range
of topics and information and provide the most relevant search results for the
Search engine optimization (SEO) is a process which improves the quantity and
quality of website traffic to a website via search engines and its goal is to achieve
visibility to a website by utilizing the organic search engine results. These results
appear in the non-sponsored section of the SERP and unlike with paid
advertisement, when a user clicks the result and goes to the website, there are no
marketing costs for the specific company.
SEO can be seen as a process of creating a website that ranks effectively for
chosen keywords within the organic search results and simultaneously through
those keywords improving the quality and volume of traffic to the website.
There are multiple ways how to use SEO, and the main ways are related to on and
off-page aspects. With on-page SEO, everything that happens inside the website
and what is controlled by the owner of the website such as the meta description,
heading, content, and images are being measured.
The off-page SEO techniques are mostly related to external aspects that have a
relevant influence on Google ranking. The most efficient factor is the usage of
links, which direct the user to the company’s page. Search engines consider
external links as trustworthy and high-quality which automatically improves the
site ranking.
Keyword selection is one of the most important factors which influence SEO.
Understanding users’ search patterns and trends is crucial when identifying the
demand for specific content and facilitating its improvement. Keywords are the
words which users type into the search box in search engines and these words
are being categorized by Google when crawling and indexing web pages.
Keywords are the main factor that matches the search engine and website
together, meaning that search engine’s algorithms lift pages with correct
keywords on the search result list.
The best keywords for a company depend on the industry itself and which are the
search terms customers use when using search engines. For example, a sports
equipment company should select keywords to cover all the different sport
genres and aim to place as high in SERP as possible. Keywords such as “sport
equipment online” and “sport equipment shop” are too general, so a good way to
improve the listing would be using specific keywords to match the customer's
needs. In conclusion, keywords are the words consumers use when searching
specific things from the internet.
In keyword selection, companies need to identify those words and add those into
their content so the search engines can categorize them based on the coverage
and suitability. Naturally, the more relevant words a company uses, the better
chance it has of rising to the top of the result page and enticing customers to click
on the link to the desired website.
The two most common types of keywords are short and long-tailed keywords,
which both have a specific function and purpose. The short tail keywords are as
the name implies one-word search terms and very popular to use, because of the
multiple daily searches. Because of the high level of searches, the competition
with short tail keywords is tough between the players wanting to rank as high as
possible with the keyword on SERP.
The importance of placing high on search results is apparent since users are
more likely to click the results on the first page. Also, with popular keywords it is
The long-tail keywords consist of 2 or more descriptive words and are more
customer-focused, with lower competition than short-tail words. Since these are
more specifically searched, they tend to attract more quality customers and
convert more sales.
Long-tail keywords are less used than short-tail keywords, and there are fewer
monthly searches which makes it easier to rank high on SERP since the
competition is lighter. Morevoer, it is more likely for the user who is aiming to
buy a specific product or service to type a long tail keyword, and that can be a
signal of purchase decision.
There are two types of SEO techniques how the non-sponsored search engine
visibility of the website can be accomplished, designing the site to be more
consumer-friendly or focusing on strategies that influence only the search
engine's quality ranking process. These are called White Hat SEO and Black Hat
SEO.
In the early years of search engines, controlling algorithms was easier which
often led marketers to abuse the search engine in order to improve the ranking of
the site. This Black Hat SEO does not focus on the quality of the website or intends
to chain the internal content to match users’ needs but only intends to “cheat”
search engines to consider so techniques like keyword stuffing, which refers to
placing multiple irrelevant keywords to the site just to boost rankings for those
keywords, excessive tagging, and using unnatural links, are invented to present
the page in good light, but are conflicting the sole purpose of the existence of
search engines.
There are rules, more specifically official guidelines published by the search
engines, which purpose is to clarify the acceptable and undesired techniques and
in serious cases search engines might remove websites which use black hat SEO
activities from the organic list (Le, 2019). Search engines justify this severe
retaliation by claiming that manipulation of search engine results decreases the
level of customer satisfaction and degrades the result of “honest” websites'.
The SEO tactics which follow the guidelines and rules given by search engines
and do not harm the ranking of a website are called White Hat SEO. These
techniques might not give fast results but in the end, slowly improves the SERP
ranking and there is less chance for the website to be declined by the search
engines. In addition, the traffic coming from White Hat SEO to the website is
often better and optimization lasts for a longer duration of time.
The main and most commonly used White Hat SEO tactics are keyword
generation and link exchange. Keywords are the base of SEO which puts weight
on keyword generation. It is a process to choose the most accurate keywords
In conclusion, comparing the White Hat SEO and Black hat SEO together is
obvious that White Hat SEO is more beneficial, since it focuses on the consumer-
satisfaction, drives to improve the actual on-page content and there is less chance
for the website being penalized or banned by search engines.
Search engines favor high quality sites by placing them higher on SERP, which
results in more link clicks because of the users’ favoring for links placed on the
top positions.
The one reason why users tend to click links from the list of most “relevant”
search results is also connected to the website quality and brand equity. This
means that in order to keep the constant and quality traffic flowing to the
website, companies should invest in making the site user-friendly and provide
additional value and services to the user.
There are multiple studies proving the effectiveness of SEO to companies. In the
e-commerce environment, the understanding and utilization of SEO is crucial to
reach and maintain a steady traffic flow to the website. Therefore, it is necessary
for marketers to understand how to develop the marketing strategies including
SEO since they can reacha long-lasting effect on several marketing variables.
In the study, multiple SEO techniques were used, and to prove the positive effect
each individual site’s search engine ranking was measured in each phase of the
project. The results prove the SEO’s effectiveness by seeing the improvement in
search engine ranking, site traffic and improvement in sales.
Recent studies state that every modern company which has an online presence
should include SEO, especially keyword selection, to improve the website's
effectiveness and SERP listing. Companies with clear SEO strategies reached
higher rankings when comparing the new customers, sales, and site traffic.
Some research shows websites that use SEO link building get the most traffic,
better SERP ranking and increased revenue. These results occur exponentially
and gradually, especially when using the White Hat SEO
Now, business thought has grown tremendously. They have become more open to
products and brands that offer better quality than ever before. All this was
feasible only through digital marketing, which made it easier for these new
brands to reach out to consumers.
Consumers often switch brands Brand loyalty has been a big thing in the past. It's
very unusual when you see customers change labels. Today, though,
customers are able to switch brands, because the new one offers better
apps. With a lot of options on the market, customer engagement is
challenging and switching is fast. Customers now have a high level of tolerance

DATA ANALYSIS
DATA INTERPRETATION
Data Interpretation is the process of making sense out of a collection of data that
has been processed. This collection may be present in various forms like bar
graphs, line charts and tabular forms and other similar forms and hence needs
an interpretation of some kind. It is to learn about data interpretation with the
help of many important techniques and examples.
It is to see how to make sense out of the graphical data and other forms of it and
to learn to use it to solve the most common questions that are present in this
section of the quantitative aptitude.
In most of the cases, ordinal data is usually labelled with numbers throughout the
process of data collection, and so many times coding may not be required. This is
different from nominal data that still requires to be coded for proper
interpretation.
Quantitative data can be categorized into two main types, such as discrete and
continuous data. Continuous data is further divided into interval data and ratio
data, with all the data types being numeric.
Almost all the website owners are running in the race to achieve a higher ranking
in search engines. In this competitive world, everyone is struggling to find the
spot for their business. The digitization of the business has become mandatory.
The search engine optimization is the most common tactic that is can bring a
huge amount of significant traffic to your website. Those who are seriously
engaged in the practice of search engine optimization have witnessed the
versatile results on their website. There is no denial in the fact that SEO can give
the effective results in a short period of time if it is done properly.
The businesses who are willing to populate the search results with relevant and
positive links. The use of SEO enables this process with the help of content
creation and its promotion through link building. Reputation management is
considered as one of the most challenging tasks of search engine optimization.
This practice involves the optimization of pages on different domains. It uses
various social media profiles, public relations, press releases, etc for this task.
A less popular but equally powerful application of SEO is to use it for branding
purposes. Bloggers, social media websites, content producers, news outlets and
dozens of other web publishing archetypes have found tremendous value in
appearing atop search results and using the resulting exposure to bolster their
brand recognition and authority. The process is fairly simple - much like
traditional advertising's goals of ad repetition to enter a buyer's consideration set,
so to do online marketers observe that a website's pages consistently at the top of
search rankings around a particular subject has a positive impact on traffic,
consideration and perceived authority.
The higher the site appears in search engine results, the more traffic it will get.
The top three sites are the most visible, and also seen as more credible and
trustworthy than those that rank lower. Achieving these spots requires strong
SEO.
If anyone want to get more from their site, optimize it for keywords that are
relevant to their potential customers. Identify the search terms that generate the
most clicks and include them naturally in your tags and content. But don’t just
focus on number of clicks—focus on the terms that yield visitors who take the
next step.
Traffic is important, but one need to focus on the quality of new leads as well as
the quantity if they want to reach your marketing goals.
Optimizing a site for search engines and creating keyword targeted content
produces direct traffic from the engines, which typically expands into content
sharing, direct traffic and referring links as more and more people find, use and
enjoy the work you've produced. There are thousands of sites on the web that
leverage this traffic to serve advertising, directly monetizing the traffic sent from
the engines. From banner ads to contextual services like Google's AdWords to
affiliate programs and beyond, web advertising has become a massive ($25B+
according to eMarketer) industry.
• When to Employ
• Keyword Targeting
Any and all - the goal here isn't typically to select specific keywords, but instead
to create lots of high quality content that naturally targets interesting/searched-
A shallow, highly crawlable link structure is critical to getting all the content
indexed - follow good information architecture practices and use intelligent,
detailed category and sub-category structures to get the most benefit out of the
work. One should also need to employ good on-page optimization (titles,
headlines, internal linking, etc) and make the articles easy to share and optimized
for viral spreading.
If the company deals in e-commerce sales, then there is SEO for direct
monetization that it need to optimize for.
The product descriptions and names can be improved to meet direct search
queries and help drive sales by ranking high on search engine results pages.
While this space is extremely competitive, it can also be incredibly beneficial and
lucrative. The linking structure and content plans can address high-value
keywords that relate to products you sell. And if someone build enough authority,
they can bring in customers through SEO searches to his e-commerce stores.
2. Create Stellar Content - When prospects search the internet for information
about a product or service similar to what you offer, they'll come across social
media posts, blogs, web pages, and other content that was designed to answer
their questions, provide information, and otherwise facilitate a purchasing
decision. When an individual work to have the best, most relevant, most
engaging, and most authoritative content on the internet, prospects will find their
brand before all others, and this gives an opportunity to build relationships and
convert leads into customers.
Great content comes in many forms, and the goal should be cultivating and
creating content in a variety of them, including:
• Video (which can boost organic search results by 50 times more than text-based
content)
• Infographics
• Podcasts
• Animations
3. Go Local and Go Mobile - Two of the most significant changes to SEO best
practices that have arisen in recent years are the emphasis on mobile and local
content, and the two go hand in hand. Local SEO is becoming increasingly
important as more consumers use mobile devices to search for businesses
because 30% of all mobile searches performed today have a local intent.
Moreover, over 70% of people will visit a nearby business after conducting a local
search, so if an individual want to drive business to his physical or E-commerce
store, then he must focus on local content (including local keywords and landing
pages), and have to make sure your digital footprint is entirely mobile-friendly.
When someone want SEO to work for them, it can't be something it do part-time
or with minimal effort. To boost sales with SEO, one must have to be intelligent
with and dedicated to efforts, and that means having a solid strategy that
integrates all the components discussed here today. To accomplish this, one must
need a team in place that's familiar with SEO best practices and who can examine
the company goals to create and implement a long-term strategy that will help to
achieve them.
Here are three most crucial methods for turning web presence into a steady
source of extra income.
• Sell Own Digital Product - One must have the potential to make the most money
on a per sale basis when he can sell directly. That’s because there’s no middle-
man or person in between him and the buyer that’s taking a ‘cut’ from the money
earned.
SEO is one of the most effective digital marketing tactics that individual can
invest his time into, and there are a variety of ways to take advantage of the
practice.
Here are three key types of SEO that one can get started on.
1. On-page SEO
2. Off-page SEO
3. Technical SEO
1. ON-PAGE SEO
It includes those techniques that can be done on the pages of a website. This
process helps the search engine crawlers read the website content. A readable
website demonstrates quality and will bring about higher positioned pages. The
website design elements includes such as: Keywords in meta tag, tittle tag,
formatting, position, external link, density etc., which are controlled by site itself.
2. Title Tag : Title is the biggest ranking factor. Most search engine use the
website’s title tag as main factor of sites listing in search result pages.
4. Keyword in URL : In this site will be discovered all the more effortlessly via
web index crawlers if keyword incorporated into a URL. Web crawler pays
priorities to different domain name suffixes like edu or gov. Likewise shorter
length URL is favored in SEO.
6. Keyword in Alt Text : In At tag or text specifies alternative text for images.
Description of text associated with alt tag that that serves same reason and pass
on same fundamental data the picture. Alt tags are short and enlightening which
reflect the body text that depicts the image.
• Research your keywords – Determine the terms and phrases that want to rank
for on search engines. Do some keyword research on which terms have high
relevance and search volume, but also consider choosing terms with less
competition. Once determined the right keywords, be sure to let the writing team
know to optimize the page content to include them write.
• Optimize metadata – Metadata tells Google, and searchers, about the content of
a page. Make sure meta titles and meta descriptions include relevant content and
• Perform internal linking – Internal links are URLs that link to other pages on
own website. Often, individual will attach these to anchored text. Insert links on
targeted keywords in copy and link to high-authority pages to better help Google
read site, and to make it more user friendly.
Incorporating on-page SEO into marketing efforts is helpful for search engines to
understand the content on the site. And once Google understands the website, it
can reward by displaying the site for search queries it deems relevant.
2. OFF-PAGE SEO
Off-page SEO is pretty much everything that does not happen on the website. Off-
page SEO is all about creating exposure and trust for your company, which
ultimately can result in more visitors and sales.

To get the best search engine visibility, web designers should follow the Five
Basic Rules of Web Design, which state that a web site should be:
• Easy to read
• Easy to navigate
• Easy to find
• Consistent in layout and design
• Quick to download
Web pages that contain the words that your target audience is typing into search
queries generally have greater search engine visibility than pages that contain
little or no keywords. The way your web pages are linked to each other also
affects your site's search engine visibility. If search engine spiders can find your
pages quickly and easily, your site has a much better chance of appearing at the
top of search results. Sometimes, a popular web site will consistently rank higher
