SEO refers to the phrase “Search Engine Optimisation”, which came into use since 1997.Â
SEO is the process of improving a website’s quality and search-friendliness, with the aim of increasing its Search Visibility when people perform Google/Bing/Yahoo searches for products or services related to the business. SEO considers how search engines and its algorithms operate, the type of topics and actual search queries that people are looking for, and the various types of search results.
SEO has caught on as an effective business digital marketing strategy for many websites because of an important trend – when a website and its webpages have better visibility in Google search results, these webpages are more likely to attract relevant attention and bring prospective and existing customers to the business.
SEO has several key marketing advantages and benefits that distinguish this channel from other channels like Performance Marketing and Social Media:
SEO helps to increase your website's visibility on search engines like Google, and this improvement will better allow customers to organically discover your brand. Because Google has and will continue to optimise their search-intent-based algorithm, organic website traffic tends to be of high quality and grouped around particular sets of search intentions.
One compelling advantage of SEO is that, as an organic marketing channel, SEO is able to generate website traffic without a pay-per-click model, unlike performance marketing and search engine marketing. This allows businesses to allocate a fixed marketing budget and maintain their marketing expenditure for SEO, which can be an advantage over variable marketing costs with pay-per-click digital advertising.
With SEO, your brand can also start appearing when customers perform local Google searches for Products and Services – this also applies to location-specific and area-specific searches. Common examples of these local searches are "...... near me", "...... Singapore", "...... Chinatown".
Only a small group of marketing channels can present continuous 24/7 promotion and brand visibility – SEO and Google Ads advertising are the special few. With an estimated 5.6 billion Google Searches per day, and the average person conducting between three and four searches each day, many businesses are turning more towards marketing and advertising on Google.
Unlike other forms of traditional marketing, SEO provides trackable and measurable results, and that puts quantifiable numbers to your digital marketing campaign. We know when a user clicked on your search result, the common search queries that drive the most traffic, the number of users and pageviews on your website, and many more.sn
A lesser known advantage of SEO is that this digital marketing efforts will encourage better user experience across an optimised website. We know that Google's Mission is to present information in the most useful way, so in turn, SEO-optimised websites are both rewarded by Google and by customers since information is easily accessible.
We have observed that generally trustworthy websites tend to appear more on the first page of Google. This implicit stamp of approval from Google helps to convey more credibility and trustworthiness of the business website, and lends more business value to the company brand.
Because SEO marketing efforts are an overall improvement to the entire business website, we know that other areas of marketing initiatives tend to benefit as well. We have seen how other marketing areas have benefited, such as video marketing, content marketing, lead nurturing and upper funnel marketing.

Simply put, keyword mapping in SEO refers to:
1) the strategic placement of keywords on various targeted pages of your website, and
2) the alignment of keyword search intent and the type of webpage on a website. As a rule of thumb, keywords mapped to a page should be in line with the content and page hierarchy of the webpage.
A huge part of being successful at SEO is understanding where your competitors are at and how you can outperform them. Similar to other branches of marketing, performing SEO competitor analysis is a crucial part of the process. As such, it is important that you carefully study your competitors’ websites from a SEO perspective at the start and periodically from there on.
Not a problem, since there are an abundance of keyword research tools that are free-to-use or have trial usages, and we have a guide to finding keywords with freely available tools. We encourage marketing professionals and business owners to obtain familiarity with “SEO keywords”, because this process also allows better insights into their industry trends, the types of searches in a customer journey, and many other business insights. We’d also recommend using our keyword research tool for analysis.
This is an interesting question, as there are numerous factors proclaimed by the SEO industry to affect the quality of a backlink, and some factors appear to carry more weight while others appear to be less relevant. While Google does not (and we foresee that they would never) disclose the exact algorithms of backlink quality, we have observed that backlinks that are created naturally from highly-trafficked sites tend to display favourable outcomes on a receiving website’s organic rankings.
At MediaPlus, we definitely do fix missing pages (also known as 404 pages), and one way of fixing those issues is the 301 redirection instructions. By relation, we also fix broken internal links that point to the 404 pages. This site-cleaning activity allows Google crawlers to achieve easier crawlability through your site, and better discovery of the proper webpages and interlinkages.
