Another is by buying pay-per-click (PPC) ads with search engines. These ads focus on selected keywords and then are shown on search engine results pages when those keywords are used in a search. Results may also come up on other Web sites whose content includes the keywords specified.

Another important type of search engine marketing involves link building. Getting and creating inbound links to a website from other relevantsites is a way of increasing exposure of the site and increasing organic rankings in the search engines.
