In online marketing in the post-Soviet area there are two extremes, between which the vast majority of companies are torn. Some "creative agencies" prefer to allocate meager budgets for marketing or do not allocate them at all, while others use rather enviable budgets, pumping money purely into SEO and search advertising. However, advertising opportunities today are more extensive and interesting.
SEO and search advertising are very different from each other, but they work effectively together. This is not the case when you have to choose only one of these two promotional tools.
SEO is an orderly and slow website setup, change of algorithms, use of keywords. This is a long process, but it has a continuous efficiency, unlike search engine advertising, which brings instant results, providing accuracy in reaching your target audience, but even with the slightest reduction in your budget (or in case of its absence), its output automatically falls.
Search engine advertising is part of an overall development and promotion of a web project. When you already have a website, and its SEO-promotion is carried out, search advertising can be an excellent additional source of customer attraction for your business. The main advantage of it is an accurate targeting. You can customize the display of your ads using any filters — area, interests, status, etc. Search advertising has very flexible targeting settings.
