SEO and SEM (Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing)
What is SEO and SEM?
SEO
is the process and art of modifying a webpage or website so that
it reaches a better position in the SERPs (search engine result pages)
by increasing its PR (page ranking). SEO is organic in the sense that
search results appear in the natural listings of the search engine, as
opposed to SEM, which brings search results as a consequence of paying
for advertising.
On-Site and Off-Site Optimization
SEO
consists of two key disciplines, on-site optimization and off-site
optimization. On-site refers to the optimization in relation to
content, layout and meta-tags. Off site refers to website promotion
executed externally throughout the Internet to increase traffic.
- On-site optimization is achieved by ensuring that all pages contain relevant titles and sub headings, relevant keywords, user friendly navigation and a good internal linking structure.
- Off-site optimization is done mainly by building back links to your website and increasing the website popularity and general visibility
- Content is a key factor in SEO. Relevant, original and regular content will increase page rankings. Your page titles and targeted keywords must also be related to the content.
SEM vs SEO
SEM
encompasses any promotional campaign. This may consist
of using Pay Per Click advertising, banner ads placed on other
sites, classified ads or any other sort of advertising that
increases the visibility of your website.
The key difference between SEO and SEM is that SEO is organic and essentially free, whereas SEM is a paid form of promotion.
