In each of my 10 years in the industry, I\u2019ve noticed that the beginning of the year can mark a surge in calls for SEO and PPC to work together.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The difference in 2024? There\u2019s an elephant in the room: AI.<\/p>\n<p>Google\u2019s organic and paid sides are both rushing to adopt AI. From Search Generative Experience (SGE) to Gemini (formerly Bard), the SERP results for both paid and organic are evolving almost daily.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/1038259\/SEL_Post-text --><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1693000027709-0\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"post-break\"><\/div>\n<p>This is sparking unrest for paid and organic marketers alike \u2013 and putting an even bigger emphasis on paid and organic teamwork, as I discussed in my <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/events.martech.org\/spring-2024\/sign-in?rId=vs-2033391\">recent presentation at the MarTech Spring Conference<\/a> <em>(registration required)<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve already covered the important reports SEO and PPC teams need to run (and share) to help each other succeed so I won\u2019t go in-depth on those here. However, there are other key initiatives paid and organic teams need to incorporate into their joint 2024 strategies to help everyone navigate the early days of AI.

Education and awareness of the changing SERPs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s go into specifics. There are a lot of considerations in 2024:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Google algorithm updates.<\/li>\n<li>SGE.<\/li>\n<li>Google Ads changes.<\/li>\n<li>Shifting search behaviors.<\/li>\n<li>Tracking changes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On the paid side, we\u2019re all intently watching the roll-out of ads in SGE because we can bet Google will figure out a way to monetize them. Since little is known about what this will look like, it\u2019s important to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stay in close touch with your SEO counterparts.<\/li>\n<li>Keep an eye on industry updates.<\/li>\n<li>Monitor click-through rates\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Seeing how the ad algorithm and SGE algorithm collide and what campaign types will include it (are we all assuming it will be Performance Max?) and assessing impacts on ad inventory make SEO efforts and collaboration more critical.<\/p>\n<p>As far as organic SGE, we could see an even bigger shift. No SEO can confidently say that they can optimize content for SGE because it\u2019s even more of a black box than the traditional search algorithm.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As SGE rolls out, some brands will win and others will lose on the organic front. PPC teams need to be prepared to either pick up the slack or (in a best-case scenario) shift the budget to other initiatives where organic gains permit. <\/p>\n<p>Continuing to optimize for the user and focusing on top-of-funnel content is a great place to start as we monitor SGE impacts.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-shared-learnings-off-google\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Shared_learnings_off-Google\"><\/span>4. Shared learnings off-Google<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In 2024, paid and organic collaboration must expand to platforms beyond the search engines as search behavior becomes more fragmented. <\/p>\n<p>Forums like Quora and <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Reddit<\/a> are picking up steam (even in the SERPs) on the B2B side and organic social results from LinkedIn, X and beyond continue to be pulled into query results as well (and that\u2019s not even mentioning TikTok, which a huge chunk of younger users now use as their primary search platform).<\/p>\n<p>This opens collaboration opportunities beyond the search engines. Say your founder has a viral organic post on LinkedIn or your brand happens to be dominating a juicy topic on Quora. <\/p>\n<p>Both present the paid team with testing options \u2013 maybe a thought leader ad on LinkedIn or a contextual campaign in Quora. <\/p>\n<p>On the flip side, paid campaigns doing well targeting certain interests or placements on social platforms can inform SEO teams that they should lean in on \u201chidden gems\u201d covering the same topics.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-future-proof-your-search-marketing-efforts\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Future-proof_your_search_marketing_efforts\"><\/span>Future-proof your search marketing efforts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When change is fast and furious, it can be easy to put your head down and focus on what\u2019s right in front of you (e.g., what you can control).
