It’s a common question asked by website owners and customers: is PPC better than SEO or is the reverse true? The simple answer, although it may not appear simple, is that they both have their advantages and they both have their ideal uses. Fortunately, of course, there is absolutely no reason why you can’t use both forms of search marketing in order to generate a marketing mix that drives highly targeted and incredibly active visitors to the pages of your website.

PPC marketing can be used to generate traffic very quickly. While SEO usually requires several weeks if not months before you start to reap the rewards of your efforts, once a PPC campaigns has been established, verified, and funded, it can start to generate traffic immediately to all of the relevant pages on your site. For the new website this offers obvious advantages, and makes PPC the form of search marketing that many new website owners turn their attentions to first.

Combining PPC with other forms of marketing allows you to generate an online marketing mix that offers a consistently high level of traffic as well as visitors that are inclined to perform the desired actions on your site. PPC, like SEO, generates targeted visitors as long as you conduct decent keyword research and ensure that the landing page copy on your website is properly optimised to take full advantage of the traffic as soon as it starts to arrive. Combine PPC and SEO, as well as any other forms of marketing in order to get the best results.
