SEO Explained

 

Learn exactly how SEO works, why it matters, and how Ascendr turns websites into traffic and lead-generating machines.

What is SEO?

 

SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) is the process of improving your website so it appears higher in Google search results when potential customers are looking for services or products like yours.

In technical terms: SEO involves optimising a website’s structure, code, speed, security, and content to make it more understandable and valuable to search engines like Google.

In simple terms: SEO helps your business show up when customers search online — bringing you more traffic, more leads, and more sales without paying for ads. If your site isn’t optimised, you're invisible to the people who need you most.

The 4 Pillars of SEO

 

SEO success is driven by four essential pillars — Technical (20%), On-Page (20%), Content (20%), and Off-Page (40%). Together, they ensure your website runs smoothly, ranks higher, attracts the right audience

Technical SEO (20%)

Makes sure your site loads fast, is completely mobile-friendly, secure (HTTPS), and easy for Google to crawl, index, and rank.

On-Page SEO (20%)

Optimises each page’s keywords, headings, titles, and images to match what your ideal customers are searching for.

Content (20%)

Provides valuable, relevant information that engages visitors and keeps them coming back — Google rewards great content.

Off-Page SEO (40%)

Builds authority for your website by earning high-quality backlinks, making you more trusted and visible to search engines.

At Ascendr, we expertly manage all four pillars to ensure your website ranks higher, drives more qualified traffic, and generates more revenue.

 

 

Why Backlinks Are Critical to SEO Success

 

One of the most important parts of SEO is backlinking — getting other trusted websites to link to yours.
Backlinks act like “votes” of trust in the eyes of Google, and the more high-quality votes you have, the higher you can rank.

However, not all backlinks are created equal.

 

Many SEO agencies use cheap, spammy links with low Domain Authority (DA) just to boost your rankings quickly.


This is dangerous — Google can penalise your site, causing your rankings (and traffic) to crash.

 

Domain Authority (DA) is a score from 1 to 100 that predicts how well a website will rank on search engines.

Higher DA = More trusted by Google.
Low DA = Risky, spammy, and often harmful.
