A Comical Saunter through the Web: Decoding the Alphabet Soup of SEM
Everyone loves a good giggle, and here at Orange Hippo Designs, we genuinely believe that a day without laughter is like a website with no SEO (just plain dull!). Speaking of SEO, let’s dive into our primary keyword of the day – Search Engine Marketing Strategies. Now, don’t let that hefty phrase intimidate you. After all, the online world is not a battle zone unless you’ve lost your sense of SERP-itude!

Unraveling the Magic Carpet called ‘Keyword Research’
Remember Aladdin’s magic carpet that whisked him away to destinations unknown? Well, consider keyword research your online magic carpet. Don’t just stop at flying around aimlessly though; use this carpet to fly right into your customers’ hearts (and searches)!
Before you sky-rocket away, here’s a chucklesome fact: Forbes stated that a whopping 75% of users lose interest past the first page of search results. Hilarious, isn’t it? Your ticket to stay within this magic one-page boundary lies in mastering keyword research.
Flexing your PPC Muscles
No, this isn’t about literally working on your biceps. In Internet jargon, PPC (Pay-per-click advertising) is a method of buying visits to your site. It’s like buying a ticket to the Ferris Wheel that gives you a better view of the park (read: gets you better visibility and attention).
WordStream reports that the top three paid ad spots on search results reap 46% of the clicks, underlining the power of a well-devised PPC strategy to grab the biggles (big giggles, of course).

And with the right competition analysis in SEM, you’ll be skipping all the way to granny’s house – or to the first page of Google search results, to stick with our analogy.
