Click Consult Study Finds That Combining PPC and SEO Increases Conversion Rates By 51.5%

Cheshire, United Kingdom, December 13, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Click Consult, a leading UK search marketing agency, today revealed the findings of their combined Pay-Per-Click (PPC) and Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) study. The study found that conversion rates for clients who combined PPC and SEO were 51.5% higher than clients who just undertake PPC.

A random sample of 44 clients was used in the study to ensure coverage of different industries and different conversion types, such as e-commerce transactions and completed enquiry forms. For this sample of 24 ‘PPC only’ clients and 20 ‘PPC and SEO’ clients, conversion rates over a 3 month period (01/09/08 to 30/11/08) were analysed and compared.

“The findings of this study make a compelling case for companies to unite their PPC and SEO campaigns,” comments Matt Bullas, Managing Director of Click Consult. “A sponsored links ad and an SEO listing together on the first page of the search results not only generates addition traffic and revenue through a website, but it also makes a company look like a major player in the industry.”
