Search Engine Optimization, also known as SEO, is one way for attracting potential customers to your website and it is a critical component for your Internet marketing efforts. Check out these seven tips for beginners via Business2Community.

1. Maximize your link backs: It’s good to have another website linked to your website, but make sure that website it relevant to yours.
2. Be careful with your graphics: Make the graphics necessary (and not just for fun) because search engines do not read graphics.
3. Rename your image files: You can tag your images with words that will come up on search engines. 
4. Use keywords: They are important in search engines. Make sure the words are not too general, but also not too specific or limiting. 
5. Beat out the competition: Figure out what your niche is and tailor your content and keywords to it so that they show up on search engines over your competition.
6. Show your involvement: If you link with a charitable organization, your website has a greater chance to show up in a search.
7. Go beyond Google: Even though Google is one of the biggest, not all traffic comes from Google.
