Spur Business Growth with High-Performance SEM Campaigns
High-ROI SEM Agency in Singapore
What is Search Engine Marketing (SEM) ?
Essentially, Search Engine Marketing (SEM) is the purchase of ad space on keyword search results. SEM allows highly-targeted ad visibility, allowing media buyers to only show their search ads for specified search keywords and search engine results. Within the industry, Search Engine Marketing is commonly referred to as Paid Advertising and Performance Marketing – this channel is one of the biggest and heavily-utilised channels of digital marketing.
As an SEM agency in Singapore, MediaPlus Digital specialises in SEM services, and we are capable of tailoring the SEM campaign strategy for businesses and companies of all sizes and industries. While most companies leverage Search Engine Marketing to drive their inbound lead generation from search engines, SEM campaigns may also target brand awareness, brand visibility and brand recall.

The Advantages of Search Engine Marketing (SEM)
Search Engine Marketing (SEM) has several key marketing advantages and benefits that distinguish this channel from other channels like Organic Search and Social Media:
Highly-Targeted Audience
SEM campaigns can be set up to narrowly target specific audiences and selected keywords, driving the greatest number of goals and conversions for the campaign.
Higher-Quality Traffic
With highly-specific targeted audiences and selected keywords, the website traffic coming through via the SEM campaign will be more qualified and in-the-market. This improves the quality of potential customers.
Cost-Effective Advertising
Unlike other forms of traditional marketing, SEM provides efficient and cost-effective paid advertisements with trackable and measurable results. We know when a user clicked on an ad and when they submitted a form or completed a conversion.
Immediate Results
While other forms of traditional marketing and digital marketing will typically take time to see marketing and business results, SEM campaigns drive results immediately by targeting customers in the Buying-Consideration stage.
Pay Only When Users Click
The search advertising cost model only charges for clicks – no longer do businesses need to pay upfront for entire advertisement spaces. Instead, companies only pay when the user clicks their ad. This fee is also known as CPC (Cost Per Click).

Our SEM Campaign Strategy
How does MediaPlus recommend keywords?
Keyword recommendation is threefold. We first find out what is the objective of your business. Second, we identify keywords that have significant search volume and a manageable CPC. Third, we scope it down based on the desired amount of leads or revenue. This way, the keyword strategy is aligned to your business goal.
How does MediaPlus recommend budget?
Upon identifying the keywords and CPC of each keyword, we apply an industry average Clickthrough Rate (CTR) and Conversion Rate to calculate the required budget to meet your business goal. CPC varies by industry and market trends, and we want to ensure the right budget accommodates this.
Our SEM Campaign Management Tactics
These tactics are how we deliver excellence for our clients’ SEM campaigns.
Keyword Research and Management
It all begins with keyword selection, and the goal is to achieve as many conversions as well. We’ll recommend the most suitable set of keywords and match types depending on your ad budget, and strike the ideal balance between search volume, quality and cost.
Keyword Optimisation
Throughout the campaign, we meticulously trim the non-performing keywords and utilise negative keywords and keyword match types for greater performance.
Budget Management
As the campaigns are running, we manage the campaign budget for better delivery of ads and tighter control of cost expenditure. We know that some days demonstrate better performance, so we utilise day-parting for better results.
Ads Split Testing
We understand that ads, headlines and creatives can resonate differently between different groups of audiences. We run split testing to discover the better-performing ads and generate higher ROI for the campaign.
Performance Data Analysis
Because SEM is digital by nature, we receive lots of measurable data and metrics – then we analyse the campaign’s CTR, quality score, keyword performance, conversion rates, the list goes on. These insights will further enhance the campaign optimisations.
Conversion Tracking
Conversion tracking technology is a big asset in our SEM toolkit. Based on the client’s business goals and campaign goals, we set up the conversion tracking in-house.
Whichever the goal, we can track it. Forms, phone calls, WhatsApps, emails, button clicks – we track them all.
Machine Learning
Our SEM specialists leverage machine learning technologies for our SEM campaigns. It enables us to make greater use of campaign data, user behaviour, search intent and other indicative signals to enhance the campaign performance.
Bid Adjustments
We know that your targeted audiences will have certain characteristics, and we can optimise for that with bid adjustments to show your ads more or less frequently based on where, when, and how they search. This gives better visibility on the search engine results pages.
Remarketing List Search Ads
We understand how some customers may need the extra nudge to complete a purchase, or book an appointment. We create remarketing audiences through Google Analytics, and utilise Remarketing List Search Ads (RLSA) to target website visitors that have not completed an action.
Campaign Reporting
Our campaign reporting covers a high-level overview and detailed metrics to gauge the performance of our clients’ Paid Ads campaigns. Because we value our clients’ trust, we uphold strong communications and transparent reporting of their campaigns. On a periodic basis, our digital marketers will conduct campaign reviews and updates with our clients.
