Keyword
Keyword is a bit of a misnomer, because it can refer to a word or entire phrase that appears in web searches.
However, in either case, it refers to a word or phrase representing a specific search term and idea. Websites will build strategies to rank for particular keywords that are closely related to their products or services, in order to generate more traffic and leads.
