History of SEO
When we think about how much we rely on Search Engines and the web, it’s very hard to believe that 25 years ago, it didn’t exist.
The early 90s saw the birth of the Internet, browsers, and websites, so it wasn’t long before somebody invented some way for all Internet users to be able to connect to all of these things together—enter the Search Engine.
In the early days of using the Internet, we only relied on Search Engines like Yahoo, Excite, and Lycos to take us where we wanted to go and what we wanted to search for. However, Google took over and re-invented search queries and Optimization Techniques that we now term SEO.
