Paid search vs Organic search
Organic search – is comprised of results that are algorithmically generated. Search engines mine the web, extract the content, and assign value and relevance to each query. The results displayed in the organic position are more trustful and induce higher click rate than paid search position.
Paid search – consist of advs that advertisers can buy to display to searchers who type in particular queries. The advs are labeled “sponsored” on the search results page. It is short term and sustainable investments are required.
A recent survey in US showed that 88% of online search dollars are paid results, even though 85% of searchers click on organic results. Through organic search, you can reach potential customers at the very moment they are considering a purchase and provide them information exactly when they are looking for it.
