Why Do You Need SEO?

Statistics show that 92% of people who find your website get there from a search engine. Google controls roughly 70% of the search market with Bing and Yahoo fighting to get back in the game.

Websites ranked number one received an average click-through rate (CTR) of 36.4 percent; number two had a CTR of 12.5 percent; and number three had a CTR of 9.5 percent.
