The semantic search marketing adds a whole new dimension to the online marketing. Businesses, especially small businesses, which are short on budget, and cannot allocate a lot to online marketing, can take full advantage of the offerings of semantic search marketing. It gives the best results a business could get by incurring minimum cost.

The two main features of semantic search that make it the Holy Grail of internet marketing are:
