🚀 When I first heard about SEO, I thought it was just about keywords. Add a few words in a blog post, boom, Google loves you. Wrong 😂. SEO is a whole universe. Think of it like a football team ⚽: On-Page SEO is the striker, Technical SEO the defense, Off-Page SEO the cheering fans, Local SEO the home advantage. And it doesn’t stop there. Mobile, video, voice, international… SEO keeps evolving like the Avengers 💥. Which type do you use most, and which is underrated?
