SEO is essential and a main factor for success, but it is not a replacement for online advertising.

SEO is becoming more difficult. Google update their algorithms constantly and we also have to be updated with latest technologies. I think SEO is essential for any business. It helps to increase your customers and sales.

If you think of SEO in a search engine's standpoint, yes, it can be difficult. If you define SEO as "search engine optimization" not "search experience optimization", then it can really be difficult. SEO is somewhat a game of logic; it highly requires common sense and practical understanding of human behavior. When you come in control of your senses, and know exactly how your target audience will react on every statement you give out, then SEO will become lighter than you think.

SEO is just a Internet marketing field where things are changes fast, you need to stay up to date with latest updates, try new things and see the effects of those things and learn from it. It's constant process so I think SEO is not easy not hard you just need to stay up to date so you can do better work.

Do you apply those basic methods & got any improvement for your Keywords in SERP?

I do find it's not an easy task to do SEO for any Website, due to the regular updates from Search Engines, we have to consecutively work much hard to maintain/improve the Keywords SERP.

Although, if the Keywords are with low competition, basic methods may help

Truly said! Working in SEO gives physical pain. As we don't have that habit to work continuously on the system. But as the day passes it becomes habitual to us and then we feel relaxed. In the mean time we get to learn various different techniques which are comfortable and relaxing. So I can say it's difficult to start, but easy at the end.

From my experience, when i start doing SEO thought that its so easy. Its just a job of copy and paste or ctrl+c & ctrl+V. As I grow in this field i came to know that it has lots of thing except copy paste. Now i feel that there are lots of things that i have to learn about SEO.
