Search Engine Marketing (SEM)
Search Engine Marketing (SEM)
Search Engine Marketing (SEM) is a digital marketing strategy focused on increasing a website’s visibility on search engine results pages (SERPs) through paid advertising. Unlike SEO, which focuses on organic rankings, SEM places your website directly in front of users through search ads, shopping ads, and display ads, typically using platforms like Google Ads, Bing Ads, or YouTube Ads.
