WHAT IS SEARCH ENGINE MARKETING (SEM)?

Search engine marketing is the process by which you market your product or services to be visible in SERPs, or, search engine results pages, through paid search ads. Many things fall under SEM, like YouTube advertising, mobile app advertising, Google Ads campaigns, Bing Ads, PPC and bid management, contextual networks, display ad marketing and remarketing pixels.

WHY IS SEARCH ENGINE MARKETING IMPORTANT?

Search engine marketing is your way to become visible in the oversaturated online market at the time when buyers are actively searching for your product or service. Search engine marketing allows you to be extremely precise in who you target and allows you to produce advertising “touch points” on a continuous basis throughout the buyer journey, potentially leading to a conversion. While SEO takes months to see results, with SEM brands can show up on the first page of Google within a couple of hours.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SEO AND SEM?

SEM is the collection of tactics and mediums marketers can use to advertise to their audience through search engines through paid ads on a pay-per-click (PPC) basis. SEO services include tactics to increase “organic” traffic through back-end code optimizations, content planning and strategic keyword research/usage on your website. Both organic and paid search marketing are essential for your internet marketing strategy and should be used in an integrated way to complement each other.

We are Certified Search Partners with Google Adwords and Bing Ads and specialize in bid management and PPC campaign strategies, including ad copy development and testing, landing page optimization, keyword research, bid management, budget planning and pacing, mobile ad formats, lead generation, shopping ads, and more.

The badge shows that a company has demonstrated Ads skill and expertise, met Ads spend requirements, delivered agency and client revenue growth, and sustained and grown their client base. Alphametic is a registered and certified Google Partner Agency with specialization in search advertising.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN THAT YOUR GOOGLE ADS CERTIFIED?

The Google AdWords certification is a professional accreditation that Google offers to individuals and agencies who demonstrate proficiency in basic and advanced aspects of AdWords. An AdWords certification allows individuals to demonstrate that Google recognizes them as an expert in online advertising.

What is the Google Partner Program?

Google Partner Program
Google’s Partner Program offers a suite of tools and services to empower agencies and encourage their growth. Google established it’s Partner Program as a tiered membership service that incentivizes continuing education through a rewards-based protocol. The paths to Google partnership are structured using skill-based examinations that account strategists are required to complete to refine their proficiency. Furthermore, Google ensures strategists proactively maintain account health and upkeep through insight-based recommendations provided on a periodic schedule. Recommendations set a base-level of knowledge that can be helpful to agencies, and in particular, for those who are more junior members of a team. It is necessary to maintain the health of your account as Google requires a minimum optimization score of 70% to keep Partner status – however you’re in control, with the ability to apply or dismiss recommendations based on your own assessment and your clients’ goals.

Get Started

What are the benefits of working with a Google Partner Agency?

Authentication & Trust
Recognition, badges and rewards offer a sense of pride and accomplishment that authenticates the veracity of your expertise. Further, to motivate your team, continuing education programs are gamified to avoid mundanity and presented in the form of quarterly challenges and product excellence goals. You can check your rewards dashboard to track progress and points. Every time you complete your goals, you earn points that can be redeemed for Google Partner prizes.

The partner badge in particular can be displayed to showcase at least 50% of agency account strategists have demonstrated proficiency with at least one certification in an area of expertise (for example Search, Display, Video, Shopping, or Apps).

You can be confident that when working with a Google Partner Agency, you are afforded the opportunity to work with a talented team of account strategists certified across Google’s suite of advertising platforms. Strategists are entrusted with your account, and as members of a Partner Agency are required to maintain a 70% optimization score (an in-built scoring system that mandates ongoing optimizations) and are incentivized to continue their education through the rewards program.
Education & Insights
Skillshop is a portal that serves to provide educational resources, trainings and examinations. Get access to free educational resources, build product knowledge and earn certifications on Skillshop. Finally, expand your Google Ads expertise through livestreams and trainings.
Consumer Insights
For Partners-only, access global consumer insights reports to stay on top of industry trends and unlock deeper conversations with clients.
Access and Support
Get Google on “speed-dial”. As a Google Partner, get VIP access and support to bolster client success. COVID has forced Google’s hand in throttling the amount of support intake allotted to individual accounts. Partners’ direct access is opportune for getting the help you need, when you need it the most. We reach out to Google via phone, email or chat, or contact your dedicated account representative.
Recognition & Rewards
After successfully meeting requirements for Google’s Partner Program, team members and agencies are rewarded in ceremonious fashion with certificates, a partner agency badge and access to the rewards-based system used in exchange for Google-branded goods.
Always Evolving
Google’s Partner Program is designed with evolution in mind. Notwithstanding the challenges faced in an ever-evolving industry, Partner agencies commandeer resources dedicated to expand Google Ads expertise and stay on top of trends. When you work with a Partner agency, you can feel comfortable knowing that your agency is required to maintain their Partner status through ongoing optimization efforts and proficiency-based certifications.

Work with a certified team of Google Ads specialists to create a comprehensive digital ads strategy.
