SEM

Search Engine Marketing: paid advertising on search engines such as Google.

In detail

SEM places ads in search results for chosen keywords, paid per click. It produces traffic immediately and is useful while organic SEO builds, or for terms too competitive to rank for.

Success depends on keyword selection, landing page quality and conversion tracking.
