Crafting an SEM plan that works for your brand may take a while, but the initial time spent on the drawing board could potentially save you weeks (or months) of stumbling in the dark and wasting resources.

What is Search Engine Marketing?

Search engine marketing is the practice of marketing a business using paid advertisements that appear on search engine results pages. Advertisers bid on keywords that users of services such as Google might enter when looking for certain products or services which gives the advertiser the opportunity for their ads to appear alongside results for those search queries.

Search engine marketing’s greatest strength is that it offers advertisers the opportunity to put their ads in front of motivated customers who are ready to buy at the precise moment they’re ready to make a purchase

Why PPC advertising isn’t as easy as it sounds

The Pay Per Click model, better known as PPC (or sometimes, Google Ads, formerly known as AdWords), has completely upset the advertising apple cart. Why? Well, unlike traditional ad formats, with PPC your budget never goes to waste, because you literally get what you pay for. In PPC advertising, you only ever pay when users actually click on your ad – this mostly happens in search engines, but some social platforms use this model too.

Making Search Engine Marketing (SEM) work for you

SEM, or search engine marketing, is using paid advertising to ensure that your business's products or services are visible in search engine results pages (SERPs). When a user types in a certain keyword, SEM enables your business to appear as a result for that search query.

To ensure you're able to use SEM to properly advertise your products or services on the SERPs we employ a multitude of different strategies to ensure you get the best result while reducing your spending.

Key Stratagies for Search Engine Marketing

It might appear simple on the surface, but this is a system with a lot of moving parts. PPC works on bidding systems where ad space is auctioned off – but not always to the highest bidder. To knock your competitors out of the top spots, there’s lots to think about – which is where we come in. From targeting keywords, bidding strategies and ad copy through to ad extensions, split testing, quality scores and more, we can help you to master the art of PPC

Making the most out of Search Engine Marketing and Programmatic Remarketing

To drive revenue growth, it’s important to cover as much of the market as you can – a PPC advertising strategy that combines both Google AdWords and Bing advertising networks is a no-brainer. While both platforms are very similar on the surface there are minor subtleties which can be used to tweak your campaigns to get the best results. The kicker is that we can easily import a successful Google AdWords campaign into Bing Ads, broadening your reach at very little cost.

Boost your sales with Google Shopping Ads

For online retailers, Google Shopping ads are essential. This ad format allows you to seamlessly integrate your online retail website with the Google Shopping network. This network displays product-based ads directly in the search results page – getting your product in front of your prospects early in the buying cycle. A high-performing Google Shopping campaign requires a well optimised product feed from your website. We work with our clients, web developers and product feed tech vendors to make this happen on every one of our campaigns.

What is the difference between SEO and SEM?

SEO is sometimes used as an umbrella term that includes SEM. Search Engine marketing is about getting traffic via paid ads, and SEO is more about acquiring, monitoring and analysing organic (unpaid) traffic patterns.

Creating visibility through organic SEO takes time and energy. Search engine marketing on the other hand provides almost instantaneous results. Your ad is placed in front of your potential customer as soon as they search for you. This makes it an ideal short-term strategy for quickly creating visibility for your products, service, or organization.
