Optimizing content for search engines or SEO is a popular way to get more readers. When you set up the content so that search engines can easily see what is important and what isn't, then the pages will rank better in search engine results and so you'll get more readers. But SEO is not something everyone thinks about, and it's not vital for every page. For instance, some of my personal pages don't need to be optimized because the only people who need or want to see them are people who have gotten the URL directly from me. Sure, these pages have been indexed by search engines, but I don't care where they rank.
