Frequently Asked Questions

What is an SEM?

SEM refers to using paid advertising and organic search engine optimization (SEO) to improve a website’s visibility in search engine result pages. It is also referred to as paid search or pay-per-click. As consumers search and shop for products online more often, search engine marketing has become crucial to expanding a company’s market share.

In Search Engine Marketing, companies only pay for impressions that convert into visitors. Thus, it becomes an efficient way for companies to spend their marketing funds. Additionally, each visitor improves the website’s rankings in organic search. Such visitors are also more likely to purchase than those on social media. SEM is the fastest way to increase traffic; the results are almost immediate.

What does an SEM agency do?

An SEM agency provides a wide range of services, including paid advertising(PPC) and organic SEO, to increase your website traffic. They manage their client’s PPC campaigns across platforms like Microsoft Advertising, Google Ads, and Bing Ads. This includes keyword research, content writing, bid management, and campaign budgeting. SEM agencies also optimize landing pages for conversions.

They also set up conversion tracking to measure the effectiveness of PPC campaigns and use it to optimize campaigns to increase conversions. They also work on Search Engine Optimization(SEO), including On-page optimization, technical SEO, and content strategy. On-page optimization includes working on website content, tags, meta description, and keywords. SEM agencies also work on technical aspects of SEO, such as improving website loading speed, architecture, and mobile responsiveness.

What are the different types of SEM services that companies provide?

There are two main types of SEM services: paid SEM and organic SEM. In paid SEM, one directly pays the search engine to display ads. The most common type of paid SEM is pay-per-click (PPC) advertising. It involves bidding on keywords that potential customers might use to search for your products/services. The company pays only when someone clicks on the ad.

Organic SEM involves improving a website’s ranking in natural search results with Search Engine Optimization(SEO) practices. This involves optimizing a website’s content and technical structure to make it more relevant to search terms. Local SEO is another SEM service that ranks websites in local search results. Mobile SEO is about optimizing your website for mobile devices.

What are the benefits of working with an SEM agency?

There are a number of benefits of working with an SEM agency for your requirements. They have in-house specialists who know the latest trends and algorithms of popular search engines. As a result, they can craft effective strategies which are suitable for your niche and target audience. They can manage your SEM campaigns, which can be time-consuming and require keyword research, content creation, and performance monitoring.

They have specialized tools and software that provide deeper insights into campaign performance. SEM agencies dedicate their resources to ensure your campaign remains effective and competitive. All this is done with a data-driven approach and the use of analytics. Thus, you save a lot of time to focus on your core business area.

What should I look for when choosing an SEM agency?

You should look for some specific factors while choosing an SEM agency. First and foremost, look for agencies that have experience in your industry. They will be able to understand your target audience and the competitive landscape. Look for case studies or testimonials from companies already working with the SEM agency. Although it does not necessarily guarantee success, Certifications from Google or Bing ads give some credibility.

The other things you should look for include the data analytics they use, communication style, and transparency. You should be comfortable asking them questions and getting updates regarding your campaign. Finally, be clear about their pricing structure and the services included, not just the total cost.

What is the difference between SEM and search engine optimization (SEO)?

Search Engine Marketing(SEM) is a term that encompasses all the strategies to increase the visibility of websites in search engine results. SEM includes both organic SEO and paid advertising campaigns. So, SEM is about driving traffic to your website via any means search engines provide.

SEO or Search Engine Optimization are practices specifically meant to improve your website’s ranking in organic search results. You do not have to pay for where you are placed in Search Engine Result Pages(SERPs). It involves optimizing a website’s loading time, technical structure, content, and other aspects to make it more relevant to search terms. The results of SEO are much slower than those of SEM and take time.

When can I expect to see results from my SEM campaigns?

You can see results from SEM campaigns comparatively quickly, but for significant results, the time varies. You may get early signs within 1-2 weeks with initial impressions, clicks, and even conversions within the first few weeks. Within 1 to 3 months, you will get a clear picture of your campaign's effectiveness. This can be done by analyzing Click-through Rates(CTR), conversion rates, and ROI.

For complete results, you may have to wait for three months or even longer to see the full impact of your SEM campaign. If you are in a highly competitive industry, it will take even longer to see full results, as you will be competing for ad space with competitors. You can expect faster results if you have a larger budget than competitors.

What is the cost of SEM services?

For small and medium-sized businesses, the price ranges from $3,000 to $10,000 per month. Several factors have an impact on overall cost. More competitive industries will have higher costs due to keywords, which are more costly and sophisticated campaign strategies.

SEM agencies with a proven track record will charge more than inexperienced agencies. The amount a particular company is willing to spend on advertising will directly impact the cost. So, to be sure about the price, get a detailed cost structure that mentions the services offered and how they will measure success.

What are some questions I should ask potential SEM agencies?

You should start with their experience working with clients in your industry. Ask questions related to the manpower they have, their skill sets, and expertise. Enquire about the communication and transparency present during your collaboration with the SEM agency. You should also be crystal clear about the cost structure and how the payment will be made.

You should also ask questions about what will be included in the services and how they will measure success. Enquire about the tools and technologies they will use for your SEM requirement. Ask them about certifications or awards they have received from reputed organizations, which add to their credibility.
