Raise your hand if you don't do Search Engine Marketing. What, no hands raised? Not surprising, is it?

Search Engine Marketing is a key part of any marketer's acquisition strategy, and it has only become more important over the last few years. It is also unique because it tends to be one of the most data rich environment for a marketer. Math. Algorithms. Relevancy. All kinds of sweetness.

Yet very often our Paid Search programs are measured based on easily available, but primitive, metrics such as click through rate (CTR) or cost per click (CPC) etc.

The goal of this session is to highlight practical new ways of thinking about Paid Search holistically. We'll identify valuable metrics you can use, understand how to seize new ways of monetizing how people use search, and finally look outside your own company for opportunities.
