Conclusion

As we have outlined throughout this chapter, SEO touches IT/development, marketing, public relations, usability/design, social media, sales, and management. Getting every one of those groups to understand the basics of SEO is essential to long-term success. SEO is not the be-all and end-all, but it is a significant component of all these disciplines.

An SEO culture is focused on growing relevant, converting traffic to the website and the business overall. Educating your organization in these simple concepts will ensure that everyone is working toward the same objective and will bring a lot of efficiency to your overall operations, which will ultimately help you achieve SEO success.
