What is SEO; Beginners and Newbie’s Guide
“All I know is (that) I know nothing”
-Socrates
We’ll pick up on that later…
I can easily spend an entire article explaining in detail the meaning and the value of Search Engine Marketing in today’s world; its practices, its purpose, approaches, tactics; all regardless of the fact that I’m an apprentice and an admirer of the industry itself. I can be completely ignorant on the subject, and teach you everything you might think there is to know about SEO. How? Well Google of course! …And yes, I can’t deny it, Wikipedia as well; but the truth is, at this specific moment in time, I can’t really give you complete thorough answers or explanations to either the market nor the practice of SEO. I believe no one really can. Not even the “experts” themselves.

What is Paid Search?
One of the hottest trends in Internet marketing is paid search, also known as sponsored search. As its name implies, paid searches are advertisements in which the sponsor pays for placement at either the top of a search engine results page or as a separate ad, generally placed to the side of organic or natural search results. This method of advertising is designed to cash in on the theory that most surfers will only respond to the top ads on the first page of results. Like anything, it has benefits as well as drawbacks and carefully considering these will allow a potential advertiser to decide if paid searches will work for their particular online business.

How Does Google Adwords Work?
Google’s advertising network is referred to as Google AdWords. The way the Google Adwords network operates is by allowing advertisers to bid on an endless selection of keywords that they believe may be typed into the Google search engine in search of information. When an advertiser bids on a specific keyword, and they bid a high enough price, the result is that their ad will appear in a special segment of the search engine results pages for that keyword which is located both above the regular search engine results (shaded in yellow) and along the right side of the page as well.
