SEO stands for “search engine optimisation”, meaning the optimisation of content for the internet. The content is prepared using search terms (keywords) that describe the product in question and is therefore relevant to Google searches. This means: the better the content is optimised for SEO, the better search engines understand it and the more likely it is to be shown to the user.
