SEO and SEM: two routes to visibility

Understand the role of organic search and paid search in a digital plan.

Build an accessible foundation

Search Engine Optimization focuses on helping people and search engines understand a website through relevant content, sensible structure and technical quality.

Use paid search with a clear purpose

In this context, SEM refers to paid search campaigns. Define the audience, landing page, budget and desired action before a campaign begins.

Measure useful outcomes
