In this lesson:
Paid search results
Paid search results are essentially ads. With these, your placement is usually based on the amount you're willing to bid for the ad's placement, and other factors like the quality and impact of the ad.
You can do this through Google, Bing, Yahoo, or any other search provider with whom you can set up ads.
You can set up a targeted campaign to drive traffic to your website.
Note that if your site violates Google's Terms of Service, you'll get removed from search results entirely.
Paid search results usually show up first with an “ad” indicator.
Organic search results
Organic search results are unpaid results that come up organically.
When someone Googles you, for instance, Google's looking at that search query and determining which pages on the internet are reputable and relevant to your search. It then displays those results ranking them based on that relevance.
The top results get clicked most often.
