SEO is critical for businesses to gain visibility and credibility online. 81% of customers and 94% of B2B buyers search online before making purchases, so companies without an online presence will fall behind competitors. A strong SEO strategy positions a company's website and content highly in search results for relevant keywords, attracting prospective customers. When users search for products and services, businesses want to rank highly to gain mindshare through repeated appearances in search results as users refine their queries, increasing the chances users will eventually click through and trust the business more. In addition to rankings, good SEO improves a website's user experience and usability.

Why SEO is Critical for Business Growth and Sustainability
1. You should already know the answer to that question that if you are even
remotely related to a business or content writing. Let’s spell the obvious out:
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is extremely valuable and essential in the
growth and sustainability of a business, much more incredibly crucial if the
company is web-based. SEO is critical for business because it provides
organizations and firms with the visibility and presence for attraction and
strong solid credibility for unknown customers in this digital era. Eighty-one
per cent of customers and 94% of B2B buyers will perform searches online
before they make a purchase, so brands/firms that do not have robust internet
credibility will find themselves falling behind the competition. A strong SEO
strategy will enable brands to position their website and their content highly on
the SERPs for relevant keywords so that they can attract the attention of
prospective customers and bring them into their sales funnel.
When customers and users search for your products and services on the
internet or by going online, the businesses want to appear as high in the
search engine rankings as possible, but the reasons for this are more than
just what you want them to click through to your website. There is a certain
amount of value in only appearing in search results for terms directly related
to your business. For instance, most searchers don’t just search once, click on
some websites, and then be done with it. Instead, they search, click on some
sites, edit their search terms, search again, click on some more sites, further
change their search terms, search again, and so on.
So what does this indicate? It indicates that if you can continually show a
presence in all these search results that you are gaining more and more
mindshare with each potential customer. The chances are excellent that they
will eventually click through to your website, and since you continually
displayed in all their search results, they will trust you that much more. Search
Engine Optimization (SEO) is not only about search engines, particularly, but
good SEO practices improve the user experience and usability of a web site.
