organic search
Natural search listings
Organic search refers to unpaid search engine results—the listings that appear because algorithms judge them relevant, not because someone paid for placement.
Contrasted with paid or sponsored results.
In marketing, organic search traffic means visitors who found a site through these natural results: Most of our traffic comes from organic search.
The organic suggests something that grew naturally rather than being artificially promoted.
