SEO & SEM

• Search Engine Optimization (SEO) "optimizes" website content to achieve a higher

ranking in search results, for example, by incorporating specific keywords or links

associated with the website. Depending on the context, SEM can be an umbrella term for

various means of marketing a website including SEO, or it may contrast with SEO,

focusing on just paid components

• Search Engine Marketing (SEM) is a form of Internet marketing that seeks to promote

websites by increasing their visibility in search engine result pages (SERPs) through the

use of paid placement, contextual advertising, and paid inclusion.

In 2008, North American advertisers spent US$13.5 billion on search engine marketing
