Hello and once again welcome to WsCube Tech YouTube channel馃檪
[2]
I am Umar Tazkeer.馃檪
[3]
We are starting a new video series with this particular video
[6]
which will be based on SEO (Search Engine Optimization)
[8]
and I will try my best to give you
[11]
the recent techniques, tips tricks and other information of SEO
[16]
**Music**
[22]
But, you will get this video course in the form of a playlist.
[28]
It will be a beginner video course.
[30]
So, the main objective of this is that I should focus more on the foundation
[35]
which means that I will focus more on clearing the foundation concepts of SEO
[43]
because you also know that SEO is such a dynamic field
[47]
that new updates and algorithms keep on coming
[50]
and search engines keep changing something or the other.
[52]
So, what happens when these many updates come in so less time
[56]
is that the techniques keep on changing very fast.
[59]
If the techniques keep on changing so fast
[61]
then if I tell you some technique now,
[64]
it may stop working after 4-5 months.
[68]
So, our focus will be mostly on
[71]
the techniques, tips and tricks that are always constant
[76]
which are working form last 7-8 years.
[80]
That is the base of search engine algorithm.
[84]
Most of our focus will be on all those things.
[87]
This is such a big and vast topic that even if 400-500 videos are made on it, it is still less.
[95]
So, this is a very big topic.
[96]
So, let's see how we can cover these particular things in this playlist
[101]
and provide you maximum knowledge.
[104]
So, let's begin.
[104]
I will talk about the history of SEO in this video, its introduction and its basic definition.
[113]
So, this is very basic topic.
[114]
But the content in this is very interesting.
[117]
You will come to know some such things that you were not knowing before.
[121]
So, let's start.
[122]
And we will see when did this SEO start.
[127]
SEO came into picture in the year 1991
[132]
and at this time only, 1st website was created.
[135]
When the first website was created, at that same time, SEO came into existence.
[142]
But when the first website was created, just after that in around 1-2 years,
[146]
so many websites were formed.
[148]
Now, what is the meaning of the creation of so many websites?
[151]
If I am saying that so many websites were created,
[154]
it means that so much of content came on internet.
[157]
Now, this content is not from single field.
[161]
Content will be of multiple niches.
[163]
Today, you are finding it very easy to find the content of multiple niches.
[169]
You go to Google and search it very easily.
[171]
But think of that time when there were so many websites
[174]
but no one was knowing more about search engine as its existence was not that much.
[179]
In that case, users used to face problems
[183]
in accessing the content of multiple niches on these multiple websites .
[186]
So, where there is a problem, there is a solution.
[189]
So here, the need was of structure and accessibility
[197]
to make this content accessible, give a structure to it
[205]
and identify the niche to which the it belongs.
[208]
From here, the concept of search engines came.
[214]
So, the problem was to access this content,
[218]
the solution to remove that problem was search engine.
[223]
Today, if I talk about search engine then people think of Google first.
[228]
It is fine also because Google is so much popular in today's time.
[230]
It's a search engine and I will say that
[233]
it's not only so much popular but also
[234]
Google is the most successful search engine of the world.
[237]
But Google was not like that in the beginning.
[241]
Yahoo had come into picture even before that.
[243]
But, from here, people came to know about SEO
[249]
and they also came to know that
[252]
to give a structure to the content on the internet in the form of websites,
[255]
we will need search engine.
[259]
Then, the real SEO game started in the year 1996
[266]
when Larry Page and Brin Started building world's most successful search engine till today.
[272]
And do you think that it's name is Google?
[277]
No.
[278]
It was not Google.
[279]
It was BackRub.
[283]
Very few people know that the search engine that Larry Page and Brin had made earlier,
[288]
its name was not Google.
[289]
Its name was BackRub.
[291]
Later, it became Google.
[294]
Earlier, its name was BackRub.
[295]
So, the first search engine that was made by Larry Page and Brin was BackRub.
[300]
Later, its name became Google.
[302]
And when Google came into picture or when it started,
[307]
by then people had come to know about SEO.
[310]
There was so much content and people were putting the content
[312]
and people had understood how to deliver our content to the people.
[316]
SEO is such a way that if I put any content on my website,
[321]
I can deliver it to lakhs of people.
[324]
But, SEO was not that much complicated earlier.
[330]
Today, the SEO that we see and the evolution of SEO that happened,
[336]
it was not that much earlier, it was very basic.
[339]
You had to put the keyword in the content, title and at some other 1 or 2 places,
[343]
it was so random like this.
[344]
We can say that it was not based on any algorithm.
[348]
If we put few keywords in the content and if the user typed those exact keywords
[353]
then the search engine used to show that index page.
[357]
And in this way, the work was going on.
[359]
But like this, just the work was going on somehow and here, Google identified an opportunity.
[368]
And Google started working on its own search engine
[372]
and started making its own search engine algorithm based.
[377]
I have written that same point here that
[379]
the evolution that happened in SEO,
[382]
the real game started from here
[384]
when Google saw the opportunity and started working on the algorithms
[387]
those who were giving values to quality, relevancy, content, etc.
[393]
Today also, we understand its value.
[396]
I have made so many videos on SEO.
[399]
We talk about the quality content and relevant content.
[404]
Whatever the user is searching, the content that matches his intent should be present on our website.
[411]
Only then will our website rank and
[413]
only then will Google rank our website for that keyword.
[417]
So, we talk about the quality, relevancy and content oriented SEO.
[422]
Google had already understood all these things.
[426]
And then it started building its algorithms on the same basis.
[431]
The algorithm updates that it had to bring,
[433]
it kept on bringing them on the same basis that
[435]
how we should rank the websites on the search engine
[441]
by considering quality, relevancy and content as our foundation.
[446]
So, from here, the real game started that we study today also.
[449]
Over the time, things keep on coming,
[452]
changes keep on coming in technology, so updates keep on coming.
[454]
There is nothing big in that.
[456]
But this thing is the foundation and you also know that it works today also.
[460]
So, from here, we came to know 1-2 interesting things and they are:
[464]
Google was not the first search engine of Larry Page and Brin.
[468]
It was BackRub that they had made during the time of their education.
[474]
And later, when its registration was done and it got domain and all those things then
[478]
it became Google.
[480]
So, we all know that in today's date, Google is the most popular search engine.
[487]
So, now let's come to a basic definition of search engine.
[492]
SEO is a practice. Keep this thing in mind that it's a practice, it's a process
[499]
of increasing the number and quality of visitors to a website
[502]
by improving rankings in the algorithmic search engine results.
[508]
Algorithmic search engine results means that
[511]
the results that we get in the search engine are algorithm based.
[515]
I have told this to you in the beginning also.
[516]
They are algorithm based.
[518]
So, in the algorithm search engine results,
[520]
the process that we do to improve our ranking
[524]
or the practice that we do or the series of steps that we do
[526]
or the initiatives that we take or the steps that we take, that is basically called as SEO.
[534]
So, this is the basic definition.
[536]
Here, I have used the word "practice" or the steps that we take or the process that we do.
[542]
So, there are 3 types of pain processes in SEO.
[546]
One is on page SEO, 2nd one is off page SEO and the 3rd one is technical SEO.
[551]
It's very basic.
[552]
On-page SEO relates to the content on your website.
[555]
If you make any changes in the content of your website
[558]
so that we should rank in the results of search engine.
[563]
That is basically called as on-page SEO.
[565]
What is technical SEO?
[567]
Technical SEO is related to non-content elements of your website.
[572]
It is not related to the content.
[574]
For example, page speed.
[578]
Page speed is something which is not related to content.
[583]
But, if we talk about on-page SEO
[585]
then if we are putting H1 tag in our content
[589]
then this is on page SEO.
[590]
This is not technical SEO.
[593]
Page speed is technical SEO.
[595]
Did you understand the difference?
[596]
Then why is off-page SEO done?
[599]
Off-page SEO techniques help us strengthen the influence
[602]
and relationships your website has with other websites.
[606]
They are talking about backlinks and all in technical language.
[610]
Through backlinks, we establish our relationships.
[615]
So, backlinks come in off-page SEO.
[619]
So, in this particular video, we saw the history of SEO,
[625]
how it evolved, how Google took the initiative
[628]
and started showing algorithm based results to the users.
[632]
We saw the basic definition of SEO and then, we saw the types of SEO.
[635]
From the next video, we will try to go in details of all these things.
[638]
In simple language, what is SEO?
[641]
SEO is that technique or those steps or that process
[646]
through which you want to rank your website or webpage in organic results
[652]
based on specific keywords.
[654]
That's it.
[655]
The definition is so basic.
[656]
That's all in this particular video.
[658]
I hope that you might have understood the video.
[660]
Please follow the series completely. This was the introductory video.
[662]
You are going to get a lot of information from this video series.
[665]
I am telling you again that the focus will be on this thing that your foundation must be strong
[671]
from the point of view of SEO
[673]
and then, when you will follow blogs and see other videos
[676]
then you can learn a lot of SEO on the basis of those things.
[679]
But, if your foundation is not strong then
[681]
you will always have confusion on how the things are working.
[685]
So, the main purpose of this series is that your foundation should become strong.
