Hero
In the context of web design, the Hero area (sometimes used as “Hero Image” as well) refers to the primary spread on a webpage, usually the site’s homepage, at or near the top of the screen and generally just below the navigation menu.
Your hero area should be the most visually prominent area of the page, and also have the most immediate, actionable information for the user to your site.

Total Addressable Market
Refers to the entirety of a company’s potential customer base. The total addressable market might be used to refer to the broadest possible marketing campaign that would still reach a relevant audience.
Often, this market is used not to create marketing campaigns, but to break into sub-groups, from which more targeted marketing efforts can be made to more specialized but still large groups of potential customers.

Google Search Console
Google Search Console (GSC) is an analytical tool provided by Google that records search data related to a linked website. As opposed to Google Analytics, which largely analyzes traffic once it’s on your site, GSC provides data on search results that provide impressions and click throughs to your site.
Search Console is also a tool that allows you to monitor pages on your site that have been indexed in Google’s system, and request indexing of individual pages. This can also be done on a sitewide level by submitting a sitemap to Google through the GSC system. The tool also provides information on possible errors or warnings related to site usability.
