SEO stands for search engine optimisation. In simple terms, it means making your business easier to find when people search on Google.
Why SEO matters
When someone in Harare searches for "plumber near me" or "school uniforms Harare", they are ready to act. Businesses that appear near the top get most of those customers.
How Google decides who appears
- Relevance. Does your website clearly explain what you do and where?
- Trust. Do other reputable websites mention or link to you? Do you have genuine reviews?
- Experience. Does your website load quickly and work well on phones?
