Search Engine Marketing has come a long way, baby!
There is a certain magic to how fast things can change and lead to great leaps forward in the Internet world. For example, less than a decade ago, outsourcing a Search Engine Marketing (SEM) agency was prohibitive to small businesses because you had to spend at least $10,000 - $15,000 per month, typically with a 12-month contract.
Other options were to do SEM in-house (who has the time or the expertise?) or to hire a freelancer (time spent on manual work instead of strategy; and sometimes only SEO or PPC offered, not both.) Plus, no reporting technologies existed that could track numerous search engines all in one place and in real time. These were the “not-so-good” old days.
Let’s fast forward. For a few years now, small businesses are able to outsource teams of SEM experts to bring more visitors to their websites quickly and affordably. Finally, we’re able to offer custom solutions, results tracking platform, and short-term contracts at “you-can-afford-this” prices.
