Search Engine Optimisation

Search Engine Marketing (SEM) is internet marketing intended to bring traffic from a search portal to another site. SEM includes Search Engine Optimization (SEO), and Pay per Click Advertising (PPC). Search engines represent a very unique medium, in that it allows you to target an interested audience. The goal of SEM is to increase the levels of high-quality targeted traffic to a web site.

The function of SEO is to improve a web site’s position within the ‘organic’ search results for specific terms, and in this way increase the amount of traffic to the site. The higher the position (ranking) on the search engine results page, the more people will visit your site.

It’s a process which involves making modifications to your site, such as editing its HTML coding and revising the site’s content and layout. The process is long-term, and overnight success is extremely rare.
