3. Basic and advanced SEO
SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) is the digital discipline that encompasses all those activities aimed at improving the ranking of one’s web pages on search engines.
Why SEO? Because search engines are the channel in which people use the web, 85% of traffic conversion occurs through SEO. It is a pull channel, i.e. a channel that does not push the user to buy, but instead allows him or her to make a better buying decision. In Digital Coach you will be able to deepen your knowledge and develop the appropriate skills to become a digital professional.

Web surfers search for information, products, or services, and want immediate answers to their needs. To meet users’ needs, Google is focusing on Micro Moments, and for a business, or company, it is important today more than ever to geolocalise, to appear at the right time, i.e. when the user’s need arises.
