SEO (search engine optimization) is a way to increase search engine rankings and attract targeted traffic from search results.
SEO website promotion services are an effective way if you are aiming to get your site in the top of search engine results. Website promotion using the search engine optimization method can be divided into two large sections, such as internal and external optimization.
Internal website optimization
It is a key way to promote the site and means the implementation of a set of works aimed at changing the code and content of the site pages based on the requirements of search engines. Internal website optimization services include:
In addition to all of the above, behavioral ranking factors are taken into account during the internal optimization of the site.
External optimization
In a broad sense, promotion by external site optimization means working on placing links of the promoted resource on other web sources. What does this mean in practice?
From the point of view of search engines, each indexed site has a certain authority, and if Internet resource A (donor site) posts a link to Internet resource B (acceptor site) on its site, then it automatically transfers part of its authority (weight) to source B.
External SEO optimization of a website can become a powerful tool if you know the answers to the following questions:
How often should you add links?
What parameters should be considered when choosing a donor site?
What to do with outbound links (links leading from the promoted site)?
Should you buy paid links? (not worth it)
Where can you get powerful and natural links?
Website promotion with contextual advertising is the display of advertisements to Internet users above the search results and on thematic portals in accordance with their requests.
The essence of website promotion with the help of contextual advertising means placing short paid ads practically on the entire Internet space. The largest search engines in the world, Google and Yandex, have fairly large partner networks where your advertising can be placed. Here it is worth considering the fact that often novice Internet businessmen place their ad anywhere, thereby simply losing their budget for non-targeted traffic. Only a professional setting of contextual advertising can give you the desired result.

Banner advertising
is a dynamic or static picture, contains graphic and text advertising information, and is placed in the most visible parts of Internet resources. It is completely clickable, therefore it provides an increase in conversion on the site.
Banner (display advertising) not only provides a link to the site, but can also inform potential users about the arrival of new goods and services. When ordering display ads, they are most often placed on sites with high traffic (visits). Along with this, it is worth considering the related interests of the site on which the banner with the advertisement itself is placed in order to get commercial traffic to the web resource.
