Which product is better for SEO purpose? Widgets or API?
Firstly, What is Search Engine Optimization (SEO)?
SEO, is the process of increasing the quality of website traffic by increasing the visibility of a web page to users of a search engine.
SEO is one of the most important things in today’s marketing, even for professionals. The fact that your site is technically flawless and high-quality content makes you indexable as much as possible in SEO. The more successful you are in SEO, the more likely you are to get quality customers for free, which is very important. Besides all these, there are many criteria for your site to be rich in SEO. These are;
- Technical issues
- Quality keywords & contents
- Crawlable links
- Images
- Social media
- Diverse links
As well as paying attention to the content of your site, the products you use within the site are among the factors that affect SEO. SEO, which is a condition that should be taken into consideration in every step to be taken, can be negatively affected by a wrong move or a wrong product to be preferred. This affects your organic traffic and indirectly reduces your quality customer ratio as a result of your site traffic. Therefore, you should manage your off-site activities as carefully as you can for SEO within the site. This includes the products you use to improve the quality of your site, as I mentioned earlier.
