What is a Search Engine?
Definition: An internet-based tool that searches an index of documents for a particular term, phrase or text specified by the user. Commonly used to refer to large web-based search engines that search through billions of pages on the internet.
Different than a Directory
Common Characteristics:
Find matching documents and display them according Spider, Indexer, Database, Algorithm
to relevance
Frequent updates to documents searched and ranking algorithm
Strive to produce “better”, more relevant results than competitors

Examples popular Search Engines

How Do Search Engines Work?
Spider “crawls” the web to find new documents (web pages, other documents) typically by following hyperlinks from websites already in their database.
Search engines indexes the content (text, code) in these documents by adding it to their databases and then periodically updates this content.
Search engines search their own databases when a user enters in a search to find related documents (not searching web pages in real-time)
Search engines rank the resulting documents using an algorithm (mathematical formula) by assigning various weights and ranking factors

Search Engines statistics
Google – 41.6%
Yahoo – 31.5%
MSN – 27.4%
AOL – 13.6%
Ask Jeeves – 7.0%
% bases on usage

Why is Search Engine Marketing important?
85% of all traffic on the internet is referred to by search engines
90% of all users don’t look past the first 30 results (most only view top 10)
Search engine traffic is low and websites aren’t indexed because they are generally poorly optimized
Cost-effective advertising
Clear and measurable ROI
Operates under this assumption:
More (relevant) traffic + Good Conversions Rate = More Sales/Leads

What is Search Engine Optimization?
SEO = Search Engine Optimization
Refers to the process of “optimizing” both the on-page and off-page ranking factors in order to achieve high search engine rankings for targeted search terms.
Refers to the “industry” that has been created regarding using keyword searching a a means of increasing relevant traffic to a website

What is a SEO Algorithm?
Top Secret! Only select employees of a search engines company know for certain
Reverse engineering, research and experiments gives SEOs (search engine optimization professionals) a “pretty good” idea of the major factors and approximate weight assignments
The SEO algorithm is constantly changed, tweaked & updated
Websites and documents being searched are also constantly changing
Varies by Search Engine – some give more weight to on-page factors, some to link popularity

Steps to developing a good SEO strategy:
Research desirable keywords and search phrases
Identify search phrases to target (should be relevant to business/market, obtainable and profitable)
“ Clean” and optimize a website’s HTML code for appropriate keyword density, title tag optimization, internal linking structure, headings and subheadings, etc.
Help in writing copy to appeal to both search engines and actual website visitors
Study competitors (competing websites) and search engines
Implement a quality link building campaign
Add Quality content
Constant monitoring of rankings for targeted search terms

What a Search Engine Sees
View > Source (HTML code)

Pay Per Click
PPC ads appear as “sponsored listings”
Companies bid on price they are willing to pay “per click”
Typically have very good tracking tools and statistics
Ability to control ad text
Can set budgets and spending limits
Google AdWords and Overture are the two leaders

PPC vs. “Organic” SEO
results take 2 weeks to 4 months
requires ongoing learning and experience to achieve results
very difficult to control flow of traffic
generally more cost-effective, does not penalize for more traffic
SERPs are more popular than sponsored ads
very difficult to compete in highly competitive market space
ability to generate exposure on related websites and directories
more difficult to target local markets
better for long-term and lower margin campaigns
results in 1-2 days
easier for a novice or one little
knowledge of SEO
ability to turn on and off at any moment
generally more costly per visitor and per conversion
fewer impressions and exposure
easier to compete in highly competitive market space (but it will cost you)
Ability to generate exposure on related sites (AdSense)
ability to target “local” markets
better for short-term and high-margin campaigns
“ Organic” SEO Pay-Per-Click
