Search engine marketing
Search engine marketing, or SEM, is a form of Internet marketing that seeks to promote websites by increasing their visibility in search engine result pages (SERPs). SEM methods include: search engine optimization (or SEO), paid placement, and paid inclusion. Other sources, including the New York Times, define SEM as the practice of buying paid search listings.
In 2006, North American advertisers spent US$9.4 billion on search engine marketing, a 62% increase over the prior year and a 750% increase over the 2002 year. SEM was growing much faster than traditional advertising and even other channels of online marketing.
All U.S. advertising spending in 2007 rose just 0.6 percent from 2006 - much lower than in other regions.
However, Internet ad spend continued to demonstrate the strongest performance (18.9 percent growth) of any media category in the U.S.
