See below for descriptions of each marketing type:

Search Engine Marketing (SEM) is the process of using paid advertising on search engines to reach potential customers. It involves placing ads on search engines like Google or Bing, and paying for each click or impression made on the ad. The goal of SEM is to drive targeted traffic to a website and increase conversions and sales. The most common type of SEM is Google AdWords, where advertisers bid on specific keywords and display their ads in the search results for those keywords.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the practice of optimizing a website to rank higher in search engine results pages (SERPs) without paying for advertising. This is accomplished through techniques such as keyword research, on-page optimization, content creation, link building, and technical SEO. The ultimate goal of SEO is to increase organic search traffic to a website and improve its visibility in search results. SEO is a long-term strategy that requires patience and consistent effort, but it can provide a higher return on investment in the long run compared to SEM.

Social Media Marketing (SMM) is the process of promoting a product, service, or brand on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn. The goal of SMM is to reach a large audience, engage with potential customers, and drive traffic to a website. SMM involves creating and sharing content, running paid ads, and engaging with followers and fans. The main advantage of SMM is the ability to target specific demographics and interest groups, as well as the ability to interact directly with customers and receive immediate feedback.
