The search engine optimization services market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $170 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.6%. The anticipated expansion in the upcoming period can be associated with the rise in digital advertising revenues, the advent of affordable internet services in developing nations, the increase in the digital native population, and the upsurge in social media usage. Notable trends in the forecast period encompass rich snippets, emphasis on visual content, optimization of video content, mobile optimization, page experience signals, voice search, thorough keyword research, and the utilization of featured snippets.
The increasing penetration of mobile, tablet, and other electronic devices, along with the growing consumption of data, is set to propel the market for web content, search portals, and social media. The rising sales of electronics contribute to a larger population owning internet-accessible devices and increased access to digital platforms. For instance, in the US, the average time spent on the internet per person increased to 282 minutes per day in 2021, creating opportunities for companies to generate more revenue per user. This heightened internet usage is expected to drive the market for search engine optimization services.
The expansion of the e-commerce sector is anticipated to be a significant driver for the growth of the search engine optimization services market in the foreseeable future. E-commerce involves the buying and selling of products and services through electronic networks, primarily the Internet. It encompasses the exchange of data or funds to complete transactions. Search engine optimization services play a crucial role in helping online retailers attract organic traffic to their websites, enhance user experience, increase conversion rates, and gain a competitive advantage. Optimizing websites for search engines enables e-commerce businesses to attract more customers and boost revenue. For example, in the second quarter of 2023, retail e-commerce sales, adjusted for seasonal fluctuations but not pricing adjustments, amounted to $277.6 billion, marking a 2.1% (0.9%) increase over the first quarter of 2023, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Hence, the growth of the e-commerce sector is a driving force behind the search engine optimization services market.
There is significant competition for search traffic among major players such as Google, Yahoo, and Bing. Strategic partnerships play a crucial role, contributing a substantial share to the revenues of these major competitors. For example, Apple utilizes Google as its default search engine, contributing as much as $8.8 billion to Google's annual revenues, and Yahoo has switched to Microsoft Bing.
