With the ever increasing popularity of the Internet, it comes as no surprise that more and more people are finding a new career in search marketing.

The problem, of course, is how do you explain to someone else what it is you do exactly? Perhaps you shouldn’t worry? For my part, I just ask if they use a search engine, such as Google or Yahoo, and then explain I help people with websites get their site listed higher in the search engines so that their products or services get seen by targeted visitors.

With that out of the way, would you want a job in search? Is an online marketing career something you’d be proud to do and enjoy at the same time? Of course, the answer is ‘it depends’ but generally speaking, a career in the fast moving Internet industry can be both exciting and rewarding at the same time. If you find yourself working in the right search marketing company then you’d be hard pushed to find a job that offers as much scope for change as a career in search marketing. Add to that the feel good factor of knowing that you’re contributing to another company’s success and you’re on for a really good career*
