Search engine optimization is an important and often overlooked aspect of web development.  The purpose of search engine optimization is ultimately to allow the content of your site to be effectively presented to search engines, which, in turn, allows your target consumers to find you and the services or products you offer.

SEO practices involve creating an architecture for your site that is intuitive and further organizing your content by importance.  For example if you have a site that sells products, rather than have a URL that looks like: www.example.com/c12/p3242340780, you might structure your site’s navigation to look like this: www.example.com/products/clothing/mens/socks.  This makes more sense to end users, and makes the content more relevant for search engine digestion.

Additionally, adhering to modern web development standards is important.  Rather than having a bunch of text on a page in a poorly structured format, the content should be grouped and sub-grouped by sections.  This can be accomplished through various means, including using header tags, which hierarchically places emphasis on certain text, and relevant page titles.
