    Digital Marketing

    SEO and SEM are important but optimizing searches has become a real must of the digital marketing strategy of both e-commerce and media. Why? 43% of people visiting a website, do it through a search. Figures, data, success examples. How important is the search efficiency within a channel or a website?
