European Marketing and Advertising Professionals Are Encouraged to Participate in the Search Marketing Survey at the SEMPO Website by Friday, January 26

The Search Engine Marketing Professional Organization (SEMPO) announced today that it has launched its first survey designed to estimate the size of European corporate spending on search engine marketing activities and to document key SEM trends in Europe. SEMPO, a global non-profit professional association, represents the common interests of 500 search engine vendors and professionals from over 20 countries worldwide.

SEMPO's European Working Group has been asking for the market data for years, so SEMPO was happy to make this a key research initiative for 2007

We see this as being the first step in establishing SEMPO as the source of information on the search marketing industry in Europe, as we've done in North America through our annual State of the Search Market Survey.

Given the depth and ongoing growth of our membership base in Europe, SEMPO is in a unique position for fielding this benchmark survey

We have a lot of enthusiasm and support for the project from European members and partners. We expect the survey will further empower our members within their companies and the industry.

The Survey is now live on the SEMPO web site at:

European search marketers are encouraged to complete the survey by Friday, January 26, 2007. Survey results will be available via the SEMPO website.

The research project is being coordinated by SEMPO’s European Workgroup and is being conducted by JupiterKagan Research. SEMPO plans to release the European market survey results at search marketing and advertising industry events in the second quarter of 2007.

“SEMPO’s European Working Group has been asking for the market data for years, so SEMPO was happy to make this a key research initiative for 2007,” said SEMPO Chairperson Gord Hotchkiss. “We see this as being the first step in establishing SEMPO as the source of information on the search marketing industry in Europe, as we’ve done in North America through our annual State of the Search Market Survey.”

"Given the depth and ongoing growth of our membership base in Europe, SEMPO is in a unique position for fielding this benchmark survey,” said SEMPO Europe Working Group Chair, Mauro Lupi. “We have a lot of enthusiasm and support for the project from European members and partners. We expect the survey will further empower our members within their companies and the industry.”
