Common Paid Search Questions
What is SEM, and how is it different from paid search or PPC?
SEM stands for Search Engine Marketing. It’s often used interchangeably with paid search or PPC (pay-per-click). In practice, they all refer to running and optimizing paid ads on search engines like Google and Microsoft to capture high-intent searches.
How much should I expect to spend on SEM to see results?
Budgets can be flexible as there is no minimum or maximum spend requirements. However, the larger the budget, the higher the delivery of ads against your target audience..
How long does it take to see results from SEM?
Traffic and clicks can start within days, but performance typically improves over the first 60–90 days as we collect data, refine targeting, and optimize bids, ads, and landing pages. SEM works fast, but efficiency improves over time.
What platforms do you manage beyond Google Ads?
In addition to Google Ads, we manage Microsoft (Bing) Ads and other search-based platforms when relevant. Platform selection depends on your audience, industry, and goals, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
How is your SEM approach different from other agencies?
We focus on profitability and efficiency, not just clicks or impressions. That means:
- Tight keyword and intent control
- Clear conversion tracking
- Ongoing testing and optimization
- Alignment with landing pages and CRO
No set-and-forget campaigns. No bloated spend to hide poor performance.
Is SEM a good fit if we’re already investing in SEO?
Yes. They often work best together. SEO builds long-term visibility, while SEM captures demand immediately. Paid search also provides keyword and conversion data that can strengthen your SEO strategy over time.
