There are multiple website owners who are under the assumption that immediately after submitting their webpages to the search engines, they will have a number one page rank. While it is a possibility, it is not common. Submission alone is not your key to success. Learning how to be search engine optimized (SEO) will be your ticket to targeted traffic.

The definition of search engine optimization is the art of presenting web pages as inviting to the search engines. The goal of SEO is to get your website ranked on the first page of hits for internet searches. What is the big deal about being on the first page? It's critical as the typical internet searcher does not click on any of the sites beyond the first page. Why search beyond the first page when you can't see the results on the second or third pages? Your success when ranked on the first page instead of the second or third will be so amazing for your company.

So if it is so critical to be on the first page, then why wouldn't you attempt to get there? There are a few key reasons why people avoid recreating their websites for optimal ranking.

  1. It's Too Difficult

There is a large group of people who believe that it's just too difficult to learn SEO. Many people feel that search engine optimization is only utilized and effective for the large website owners but not for theirs. In reality, search engine optimization is not that difficult to learn. When it has such a positive affect, why wouldn't you take the time to learn it?

  1. The Learning Curve Is Too High

Some people think that there is just too much to learn to ever be able to search engine optimize. The process is just like any other. When you begin you will know absolutely nothing. With some training and a little bit of trial and error, you will get a grip on what is needed to get your webpage ranked highly.

  1. It'll Take Too Much Time

For all of those that think that search engine optimization will take too much time, they need to focus on the benefits. If your sales are increased 10 fold by getting your website optimized, then isn't that time well spent? If you want something in life, it is worth the effort required to achieve it. So if you want success, it will take some time to learn SEO properly. Once you learn the topic though, you will be surprised at what little time it takes to stay on top.

It will require some dedication and failure before success in optimizing your site. When you reap the rewards of so much targeted traffic, all of the work involved to get there will seem irrelevant. As we all know, more traffic means more sales.
