SEO is of course search engine optimization and search engine optimization is the process of optimizing, or making your site good for, natural search engine rankings. I use the term natural search engine rankings to simply differentiate SEO from the purchased, or sponsored search engine rankings.
So what is important in search engine optimization?
There are two primary ideas of search engine optimization – that of on-page seo and that of off-page seo.
On-page seo is primarily that portion of seo that is performed on the web page itself – hence on-page seo. On-page seo is the least important form of seo, although without it one would wonder if a web site should really be ranked at all. On-page seo is simply very elementary, and foundational.
Off-page seo is primarily that portion of seo that is performed outside the realm of the web page itself – primarily on other people’s web sites – hence the term off-page seo.
On page seo generally deal with such areas as optimizing the title, the keywords, the description, and the contents in such a way that when the search engines read the source code of the page, the automatic assumption is that the web page has as its main premise, the idea that the keyword emphasized, connotes.
Off-page seo is generally the creation or proliferation of inbound links that are themselves optimized for the web pages’ keyword or keyword phrase. When the search engines see that there are many inbound links to your web page that have similar topics to your web pages’ theme – namely keywords (although a word of warning here: all the text anchors should not have exactly the same text) – they will assume that your web page is viewed by other web pages as being respected as a web page specializing in your chosen keyword.

Quality Links
Search Engine Optimization is a very difficult field to get down the path mostly because search engine optimization is constantly changing. There are many different factors to SEO but the general consensus amongst all of the professionals in this field is that SEO is affected most by off page optimization features.
These include features like link building campaigns. If you are unable to get a lot of links pointing at your website then ultimately any efforts that you make to optimize are going to fail. The vast majority of your SEO campaign to properly SEO your website should be in creating a number of quality and relevant links pointing towards it.
However, not just any links are good for SEO purposes and indeed the opposite is true; some links can actually hurt your rankings and even worse get your site permanently banned from the search engines because of its ability to cast a black light on all of your SEO operations.
If you are linked to a link farm (a website that is nothing but links) then Google will find this out and penalize or even ban your website.
So more important to the quantity of links (although this is still important) it is more important to get relevant links that determines your success within this field.
In order to get quality links you need to do things like adding your website to relevant directories and also things like writing articles, submitting them to different locations and including a link to your website at the bottom of each of your articles.
These will serve to build up quality one-way links to your website and ultimately this is going to be the most precious kind of linking for your SEO needs.
