SEO Glossary: 65+ Search Terms Defined A to Z
Search engine optimisation has a lot of jargon. This A-to-Z glossary covers 65+ terms B2B teams encounter when working with an SEO agency or doing SEO in-house. Each definition is one to three sentences, with practical context where relevant.
How it works
B2B teams working with an SEO agency or doing SEO in-house. Founders, marketing managers, and product teams typically use it as a primer before kicking off an SEO programme. We deliberately kept definitions short and practical rather than academic.
We update the glossary every few months. SEO terminology evolves slowly, but Google's algorithm updates and the rise of LLM SEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) introduce new terms over time.

We focused on terms B2B teams actually encounter day-to-day. Highly technical or rarely-used terms were left out to keep the glossary practical. Email info@development-web.com if there is a term you think should be added.
