The Quest to Explain UX

The Quest to Explain UX

User Experience (UX) is one of those things that's tough to explain in just a few sentences.  Do a quick search for UX definitions and you'll find plenty to choose from  -- each full of buzz words that may or may not mean anything at all.  Don't get me wrong, there are a few great takes on UX out there -- but most require more than 30 seconds of reading.

What IS SEO Anyway?

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is a all about making your business more findable on search engines like Google, Bing, & Yahoo.  

Usually, it's pictures that say a thousand words, but in this case it's a number --95% of people find what they are looking for on the first page of search engine results. That means that if you’re on page 2, 3, 4, or 14 -- you’re missing a lot of potential customers.  

How do I know where I rank now?

There isn’t  just one rank for your site, but many rankings for different keywords related to your business.  For instance, if you sell dog outfits  -- you would have rankings for words like “dog clothes” and “chihuahua sweaters.”  Some of these keywords are better than others in terms of quality.
