UK Search Engine Marketing Survey goes Live; Complete Survey For Free Copy of Report

London, UK (PRWEB) February 16, 2008 -- This research, sponsored by search agency Neutralize, comes a year after the widely read 2007 UK Search Engine Marketing Benchmark Report which covered both natural and paid search. More than 700 digital marketers responded to last year's survey including just under 400 client-side search marketers and more than 250 agencies.

Those taking part in this year's survey will receive a free copy of the ensuing 2008 UK Search Engine Marketing Benchmark Report.

The research will cover online marketing budgets and the effectiveness of search marketing, as well as looking at the use of social media.

Lotte Mahon, marketing manager at Neutralize (**) (http://www.neutralize.com), said: "We are really looking forward to working with E-consultancy on the 2008 report. Last year's results offered a unique insight into UK Search Engine Marketing and the report received a wealth of positive feedback. We are aiming for an increase in respondents this year so I would urge everyone involved in the industry to give us their valuable opinions!"

The online survey, which is open to both advertisers and agencies, will be live until Thursday 6 March. Those wishing to complete the survey should visit the following URL: http://tinyurl.com/3al59r (http://tinyurl.com/3al59r)

Highlights from last year's report included:

- Just under half of respondents (48%) said that their companies carried out paid search exclusively in-house. Some 57% of companies were doing SEO exclusively in-house.

- On average, company respondents said that they spent 32% of their total marketing budget on online marketing. On average, they spent a third of their online marketing budget on Search

- Overall, respondents said that SEO was more important than PPC in terms of impact on brand.

- Google was viewed as the best search engine across a range of criteria. However, half of respondents believed that Google had an unhealthy dominance of the UK search marketplace.

- According to company respondents, lack of internal resource was the biggest problem preventing success for both Paid Search and SEO (natural search).
