8. What is SEO and how is SEO used?

 SEO

Search Engine Optimization or SEO is basically ensuring that a website is ranked highest in a search engine when a particular keyword in a search directory is searched by a user through a search website.

Search engine: Collects and indexes data from the web, then enables the users to search through that data using some method.

Search site: A website with features which users can use to search for information on the web.

Search index: A collection of all the data collected by search engine and user searches.

Search directory: Stores general information about websites (Kent, 2019, p.9).

SEO helps a e-commerce website grow by generating organic visits to the website/online store, possibly increasing their sale of products.

We are going to review and compare 2 websites selling energy drinks. Firstly, we have  https://www.lucozade.com/ . The page features a minimal look with a large product image and clear description.

The product page also has a promotion banner with free delivery and another stating reliable delivery and easy returns. (Lucozade, 2023) Secondly, we have  https://www.yourcoca-cola.co.uk/monster-energy-12-x-500ml/  . The page is similar to the previous, however this page contains more information like reviews about the product by customers, subscription and discounts for subscription , recycling banner for packaging and a product overview about the item.   (The Hut.com Ltd, 2023) References   Lucozade (2023).   Lucozade Alert - Original 12 x 500ml» Lucozade .
