What is SEO?
Search engine optimization is a process by which the visibility of your website or page has been increased by increasing the quality and quantity of your website traffic.
Quality traffic means attracting visitors authentically and having really on your site what Google tells them. It’s not like Google shows you are a food panda services site and in reality, you are a caring site for real pandas. So in this case you will get the traffic but that wasn’t considered quality traffic.
Quantity traffic is when you are getting an actual audience who wants what you are offering.
So, it is better to keep in consideration your actual audience according to your business while doing SEO.
