Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing is a business marketing strategy with efforts aimed at increasing website

search boxes of search engines to obtain these results. Doing SEO and SEM correctly will generate targeted traffic and
quality visitors.
The largest Search Engine Marketers in the world are Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft.
Since 2006 SEM is growing faster than the traditional form of advertising.
During the late 90s, due to the humongous increase in websites, search engines appeared on the Internet to assist people in
finding information easily and quickly. Search engines also developed many business models in order to finance free services
they offered. Some of these paid services were pay per click or PPC programs provided by Open Text (1996) and later on by
Goto.com (1998). A few years later in 2001, Goto.com changed the name to Overture. In 2003, Yahoo purchased Overture and
now provides paid search services for online advertisers through Yahoo! Search Marketing. Google began to offer online
advertisements on search results pages in 2000 through Google Ad Words. By 2007 PPC advertising was the primary
money-spinner for search engines.
SEO Consultants started expanding their scope of work and offered to assist businesses in
learning and using online advertising opportunities that were being offered by search engines, and a new field of
expert SEO Consulting focused primarily on advertising and marketing through earch engines started emerging. Search Engine Marketing covers a large spectrum of activities involving SEO and management of paid listings
in search engines, submitting websites to web directories, and developing various online and Internet marketing strategies for organizations, businesses, and individuals. In 2008 Search Engine Marketing is stronger than ever with marketing budgets increasing by 750%.
