What is SEM?

Search engine marketing, or SEM, is the best way to continually improve your rankings. There are two main categories of SEM: organic and PPC (pay per click).

Organic marketing focuses on content creation and ongoing search engine optimization, with the intent to naturally boost your rankings over time. This type of SEM creates lasting results, compounding over time and allowing you to remain competitive. Organic marketing also draws more attention than ads in many cases. While some ads show above organic listings, over 80% of people would rather choose an organic listing than paid ads.

PPC campaigns are a little different. These campaigns require you to set a budget and pay for an ad that shows on the search engine. As long as you can continue paying, you will compete with other businesses paying for ads for the same keywords for the top ad spot. However, as soon as you stop paying or pause your campaign, there are no lasting results.

There’s a time and place for both organic marketing and PPC campaigns, and we are happy to help you determine whether you need just one or a combination to achieve your business goals. Organic marketing is a great option for a long-term focus on marketing and improving traffic to your site, while a PPC campaign is a great option to highlight a sale or draw customers to your site during a slow season.

Your website is your business’s online storefront – whether you offer products or services, this is where customers or clients should be able to learn about you.  However, just having a great website doesn’t mean that they can find you. The first step to being found online is search engine optimization, and while many may think that’s all they need to do, there’s still another step: search engine marketing. Search engine marketing can help you elevate your online presence, driving targeted traffic to your website and allowing potential customers to find you when they need your products or services.
