Audience Segmentation (i.e. Customer Segmentation)

Audience Segmentation is the process of breaking a large audience into smaller chunks, or segments. The purpose for this is to match products, services and messages with the audience that will be most receptive to it.

18-year-old men and 70-year-old women may not want the same services you offer, for example, but if they’re both in your customer base, you’d want to separate them so that you can send them information that will be relevant to them.

Some software tools and services will even boast individual segmentation levels, with audiences of one. This refers to content that is delivered to users based on their past web behavior, so that what one person sees is unique to them.

Minification

Minification refers to the reduction in file size for website elements.

The purpose of this is to reduce the load time of your website, which can increase when it has to load large files. This is better for the visitors to your site, and is also preferred by search engines, which will often base rankings on page load times.

Search Engine Results Page (SERP)

Search Engine Results Pages, or SERPs, are the numerous listings for search engine queries that are not strictly organic results. In a typical Google search, for example, you may see product listings for sale, a local map with business listing and their contact information, a “questions also asked” panel, and more. Getting your site and services listed in these can be a valuable way to increase both traffic and sales.
