  1. When SEO Started: A Brief Look into When SEO Started: A Brief Look into the History the History Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) began in the early 1990s with the advent of search engines. Archie, the first search engine, launched in 1990, followed by WebCrawler in 1994. As the internet grew, websites began to compete for visibility, leading to the earliest forms of SEO. By 1996, engines like Lycos, Excite, and Yahoo were widely used, and businesses sought ways to improve their rankings. Early SEO tactics included keyword stuffing and meta tag manipulation, as these elements heavily influenced rankings. The Entry of Google Google’s launch in 1998 transformed SEO. Its PageRank algorithm evaluated the quality and quantity of backlinks to determine authority, shifting SEO’s focus from simple tricks to meaningful content and link- building. By 2000, Google powered 75% of global search queries. Algorithm Updates in SEO Key updates like the 2011 Panda update penalised low-quality content, while the 2012 Penguin update targeted spammy backlinks.
