Is that not just SEO?

3 – CO-OPTIMISATION

Co-optimization

1. If I am ranking #1 do I need to buy the traffic?

2. Why am I spending so much on Paid perhaps I can get it “free”?

3. Are there more opportunities with my SEM campaign?

4. Is there room to improve my creative?

5. Can I manage my marketing budgets more efficiently?

1. If I am ranking #1 do I need to buy the traffic?

If you rank number one in SEO and rank number one in SEM. What

happens when you switch off SEM? Do you get more value through organic, or

is there a 1 + 1 = 3 effect?

2. Why am I spending so much on Paid perhaps I can get it “free”?

The CPA in paid is high or there is no CPA and we don’t rank anywhere!

Would the money not be better spent getting the rankings?

3. Are there more opportunities with my SEM campaign?

SEO is delivering value but we are nowhere to be seen on Paid, surely

there is an opportunity?

4. Is there room to improve my creative?

We see far better conversion rates from SEO than SEM for the same word, is there something wrong with my paid

creative?

5. Can I manage my marketing budgets more efficiently?

Where should my marketing rupees be spent? Which channel is actually more

cost effective?

4 – MULTI-MESSAGING

Multi-Messaging

• You rank #1 in paid and #1 in non-paid what happens when you mix up the messaging?
