Good or bad, search engines are the gateway to the Internet. Research suggests that buyers at various points within the purchase funnel use search engines as a tool to help them make a purchase decision. In addition, search engines and search results serve as a meaningful vehicle for brand positioning. Whether it is search engine marketing or optimization or simply understanding how search engine local directory services work, search engines need to be positioned strongly to support all marketing campaign activities.
