Inbound Marketing
An approach to web-based marketing that emphasizes attracting people to your site, and its products and services, through informational content that is searched and shared.
This is in juxtaposition to paid marketing, which pays money to present ads and similar placements in order to draw people to your site. In an inbound marketing model, organic search traffic is the primary driver of traffic to many key pages.

Cost Per Click (CPC)
A calculation of how much each ad click costs in a given ad campaign. CPC can be affected by the ad itself, or by its competitive environment. If an ad is targeted at a high-volume search term, for example, more companies may be bidding for ads related to that search, thus driving up the price.

Featured Snippet
The Featured Snippet is a short-form answer to a search engine query that is displayed at or near the top of the page. The search engine attempts to respond to the query and present a succinct answer within the search results themselves, before linking to the webpage that the answer came from.
Crafting web content that aims to be showcased in the featured snippet can be a valuable way of generating traffic for your website.

Wireframe
A Wireframe is a visual outline of a web page or web element. In a design sense, it’s intended to provide a sketch of the eventual live design. It can be easier and quicker to make design adjustments at this stage, so that you avoid costly and lengthy adjustments to more complicated web elements later in the design process.
