About the course.

The search landscape is changing at record speed. And so is our search behavior. Even though Google still dominates, more and more people turn to social media and AI assistants to find inspiration and answers to questions. For companies this brings new challenges, but also opportunities. This course gives you the tools to understand the basics of SEO and SEM and how you can work strategically to be visible where your customers search.

SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and SEM (Search Engine Marketing) are about meeting the customer's needs: offering what they are looking for with their search. But the companies that manage to bring in lots of traffic to their website via Google do not do it by chance. Performing well in organic search results or with search ads requires the right conditions. In this intensive course you learn the basics of how to work with SEO and get your content visible in Google's organic search results. From doing a keyword analysis and choosing the ”right keywords” to creating SEO-friendly content that meets visitors' search intent. We also go through how developments in AI, such as AI Overviews and ChatGPT Search, are changing search behavior, and which strategies you can use to be visible in AI-generated answers too. You also learn the basics of SEM. Both how to approach goals and KPIs, which ad formats exist and what fits your goals. But also how to get started in practice with creating search ads in Google Ads, and optimizing and analyzing the results. After the course you will have a good understanding of how search marketing works and is changing, the benefit of working with both SEO and SEM, and how to get started with the work in practice.
