Results Are In on SEM: Synergy Sells
February 2007 From Tipline
Given that we provide integrated online marketing services at our firm, my team and I find ourselves persuading natural optimization clients to run paid search campaigns. And just as passionately we encourage paid search clients to optimize their Web sites. There’s only one reason we spend so much effort convincing clients to balance natural and paid search marketing campaigns—it works. Three critical factors are at the root of this principle: 1) the physical properties of a search page; 2) the nature of how natural search and paid search work together; and 3) the human reactions to both types of search results. Simply put, having both natural (or free
