1. Search Engine Optimization
SEO is the process of optimizing a website or its content so that it appears higher in unpaid,
organic search engine results pages (SERPs) when users search for relevant keywords on
Google, Bing, or Yahoo.
The goal is to make your website more visible, credible, and accessible to search engines
so they rank it above competitors without paying for that placement.
Types of SEO
On-Page SEO — Optimizing elements within your own website such as title tags, meta
descriptions, headings, keyword usage, image alt text, and content quality.
Off-Page SEO — Building authority through external factors, primarily backlinks — other
reputable websites linking back to yours, signaling trustworthiness to search engines.
2. Search Engine Marketing
SEM is the practice of gaining website visibility through paid advertisements that appear
on search engine results pages. Unlike SEO which earns rankings organically, SEM involves
paying for placement most commonly through Google Ads using a Pay-Per-Click (PPC)
model.
When a user searches for a keyword, businesses bid to have their ad shown at the top of
the results page above organic listings marked with a small "Sponsored" label.
3. Display Advertising
Display advertising refers to visual-based ads like banners, images, videos, animations, or
interactive graphics that appear on websites, apps, and platforms across the internet,
rather than on search results pages.
These ads are shown to users while they browse other websites, watch videos, read
articles, or use apps making them a powerful tool for brand awareness and remarketing.
