Question: If My Site Is Already Ranking Well For Many Targeted Keywords, Is A Good Strategy To Keep Using Adwords For Those Keywords? I Should Called This Post Organic Search Results vs. PPC.

The answer is in your metrics or analytics data, I know this wasn't the answer you were expecting to get from me but I ensure you that it's the right answer, is no way you can make a move of dropping or shutting down your Adwords ads any of your keywords just because you are already getting high ranking on. You need to check your Internet marketing analytic data which you should have after applying strategic testing and tracking on each campaign and keyword, in Adwords or PPC and in your organic search results as well. Then, and only then you can make a decision.

1.- SEO or search engine optimization is the Internet marketing strategies focus to help your website or blog rank high on top search engine like Google, Yahoo, MSN, Ask, and AOL. With this method you will be seeking to place your site on the top 5 or 10 of organic search result for your main keywords. This section gets the most traffic.

2.- PPC or pay-per-click is the online advertising channel that can help you put your site on the front page of organic results of targeted web users. This method needs some investment and cost you a lot of money if you don't know to use this powerful channel. These are the ads that you see on the right next to your search results. This is known to have better web conversions and ROI (return on investment), off course if you know how is done right.

3.- Search Marketing or SEM for short is a mixture of both online marketing methods, actually I should say that successful SEM campaign is a strategic mixture of SEO and PPC.

You need to know that the best way to know when an investment is bad or good is with the right data, if you know your metrics you can tun your marketing methods and make the path to the right direction. Little by little you will get better at risk management. Here are a few tip you can use today:

Want thing you should check to help decide is your sales data, because if you know which source or method is bringing the most responses or sales conversions you will indeed know where to focus your budget on.
