The vast majority of all search engine referrals, across the web as a whole, come from the organic or non-sponsored listings. Search engine optimisation is the only means of improving your performance in those important 'natural' search results.

SEO has no associated cost-per-click overhead. The more traffic your SEO effort delivers the greater the ROI. Search engine optimisation is the most cost-efficient means to target the widest audience.


Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is the practice, strategy, and techniques of optimising the benefits that search engines can offer to your business.

SEO is about knowing how, when, and why your potential customers, suppliers, and important contacts will use the search engines to find information about products and services you offer, or even about your company itself. It is about ensuring that you present yourself well and effectively from the start - from the search results.

Search engine optimisation requires greater initial commitment than PPC search marketing. SEO is akin to building and owning your search presence, as opposed to the rental arrangement of PPC. However, SEO still works best as part of a broader search marketing campaign.

SEO Delivers More Visitors

Search engine optimisation can efficiently deliver more traffic (visitors) to your website. It does this in several ways that paid search cannot.

Firstly, since there is no per-click overhead to SEO we can afford to attract somewhat less tightly pre-qualified visitors. We can afford to attract a wider range of potential customers, even at a lower conversion rate, without any detriment to profitability at all.

Secondly, there is no reason why you cannot attempt to compete on search terms that would be too expensive for your profit margins in paid search. No matter how many clicks you get, you don't run out of budget and lose visibility. Instead, the more clicks you get, the lower the effective cost per click of your SEO campaign investment becomes.

Thirdly, SEO allows you to target the 'long tail' of search in ways that are impossible through PPC advertising. Google reports that half of all searches made use five words or more as their search phrase. A huge majority of searches in any given day are uniquely phrased. SEO uses all the words on your pages for your visibility, not just the two or three most common words alone.

Fourthly, much of SEO is simply putting the right knowledge and procedures in place. Once that is done, there is no real additional SEO cost to competing for more keywords and phrases. In fact, your SEO campaign gets more efficient as you increase the number of phrases that you appear for. All you need do to increase your keywords is to create content that uses those words - no other cost.

There are more reasons why search engine optimisation is the most cost effective and efficient form of search engine marketing for driving traffic. Why not contact us to discuss them?
