We recently viewed “Automating and Optimizing Your Paid Search Marketing Campaigns″ and pulled the following key paid search marketing takeaways from the webinar:

Takeaway #1: Paid search marketing automation technology is rapidly evolving

Search engine marketing automation is becoming easier and more detailed as technological capabilities within the industry grow. This rapid evolution is resulting in an opportunity for greater campaign management efficiency.

But have no fear – automation cannot replace a number of paid search marketing components, such as the development of an effective search engine marketing strategy and a true understanding of the business and its needs as they pertain to SEM.
