Hi! I just wonder if these SMM, SEM and SEO tools can help in businesses? Are they necessary to gain a site's popularity around the globe? Are there seminars about this? I just need to know because my cousin and I are planning to put up an online business. Thanks for your time.
SEOare methods that you can implement yourself whereas SEM and SMM are methods which require paid advertisement and setting a budget. Although SEM and SMM will get you results fast, they are limited to the size of your budget. SEO and SMO are more long term solutions which, if done right, can continually bring in the desired results for your business. try to search in google to see if there are seminars or even webinars.
Do you know if companies offering digital marketing services can help us with all of those? Also, how much is the normal pricing for starting websites?
I use SEO with great success. I posted about 300 words a day on my Wordpress blog, and before I knew it the website was at the top of keyword searches and the phone started ringing.
