Search Engine Marketing - Internet Marketing Services - What is the difference?
By Sunil Punjabi of SEO-SEM Professionals
Marketing of services and products has been in existence ever since human beings started trading and conducting businesses. In ancient times, it was word of mouth publicity and marketing, and in the last few centuries through pamphlets, billboards, newspaper advertisements, and many other ways and via media. In the past two decades with the use of the Internet and Search Engines growing by leaps and bounds, companies and advertisers have taken a liking to Search Engine Marketing and Internet Marketing Services in a big way. Search Engine Marketing is a part of, or form of Internet Marketing Services, and is meant to promote products and services of a company by marketing the company's website, on the Internet and Search Engines. The marketing and promotion of a website is achieved by raising its visibility and ranking in the result pages of Search Engines. SEM includes utilizing Search Engine Optimization techniques, paid inclusions in Search Engines, and paid placements. The efforts of a SEM strategy are aimed at increasing the traffic and visitors to a website from Search Engine Results. The number of visitors and the conversions thereof are also calculated to get an idea of the effectiveness of the SEM campaign. Conversions are the measure of total visitors to the site and the actual number of visitors who registered on the site, or bought a service or product, or contacted the company for more information. One of the best-known and widely used Search Engine Marketing methods is PPC or Pay-per-click marketing. It is not only used in Search Engine result pages, but is also used in advertising networks, websites, and blogs, and advertisers only pay for the number of clicks or in short, the number of people clicking on the advertisement. Advertisers bid on keywords or key phrases that are relevant to their target market. When a user types a keyword/phrase in a Search Engines search box, which matches the advertisers keyword or key phrase list, or visits a web page with content that is relevant to the advertisers keyword/phrase, the advertisements are displayed. These advertisements are known as sponsored advertisements or sponsored links. Internet Marketing Services is a much broader field and includes Search Engine Marketing. Internet Marketing brings together the creative and the technical aspects of the Internet and includes website design and development, advertising and sales. Internet Marketing Ideas does not mean just building and promoting a website, nor is it just placing banner ads on many websites. Internet Marketing can be effective only if there is a comprehensive long term strategy according to a company's sales goal, business model, keeping in mind the company's website, function, and appearance. The focus of Internet Marketing Services is on a target market by selecting proper advertising media, type, and design. Marketing through the Internet is comparatively inexpensive as to the cost of reaching a target audience. Companies who want to advertise their products and services can reach a wider audience for a fraction of the traditional budgets for advertising. The Internet allows customers and consumers to search for and buy services and products at their convenience. Thus, businesses with an online presence and Internet Marketing Services in place have the advantages of reaching more consumers, which brings better sales and quick results for the money spent on advertising.
