Search marketing is the single most important form of Internet marketing. It effects every single business and person who wants to leverage the Web. It encompasses all aspects of online marketing related to the positioning of a website in front of a searcher or prospect at the very moment she or he is looking for that precise information, service or product. That moment is golden and more lucrative than any other form of marketing or advertising. Why? In short, because all other forms of advertising are intrusive, forcing a prospect to see the ad while they are interested in other info or programming. In search marketing, on the other hand, the ad (in the form of a link, graphic or other media) only is evoked when the searcher or prospect is looking for it.
