SEM forms part of a company’s overall Internet marketing strategy. Not to be confused with search engine optimization (SEO), SEM encompasses SEO but goes further by getting the right viewers to a company’s website. While SEO optimizes a website to achieve a high ranking by search engines and therefore boost free traffic, SEM obtains paid traffic for a company.
Through SEM strategies such as pay-per-click (PPC), a company can purchase a spot among the top results of a search engine. SEM strategies such s PPC can be particularly beneficial for start-up companies that need an immediate boost in visibility until they gain a reputation for their services.
