Now in its second year the UK Search Engine Marketing Report is produced by E-consultancy in association with Search Engine Marketing agency Neutralize.

Cornwall, UK April 18, 2008 — The survey which forms the basis of the report was completed earlier in the year by over 1000 respondents from both agencies and companies with first-hand experience of search engine marketing.

The results offer a valuable insight into the changing search engine marketing landscape and include evidence that the industry is thriving with 63% of companies planning to increase their paid search
(PPC) budget and 61% planning to increase their Search Engine Optimisation budget.

This year readers will benefit from year on year comparisons and additionally new questions that reflect emerging trends such as utilising social media within search marketing campaigns.

Lucy Cokes, Managing Director of Neutralize commented:

“It appears evident that search engine marketing is now cemented in the minds and therefore budgets of UK marketers. It is fantastic to see a greater understanding of the benefits of a well managed search marketing campaign and budgets being increased accordingly across both paid
and organic search.”

The report worth £149 is available to download now free of charge from www.e-consultancy.com/publications/search-engine-marketing-report-2008
