The only time to even think about this question is if you want your website to provide sales or interest from clients who do not know you and are seeking your goods or services over the internet. If your website is purely an information service for current customers then the answer is simply a straight forward no, you require no online marketing.

If you do wish your website to work that way then you have to establish if you need optimization, or if your site is good enough in that arena already. The best place to begin your investigations is with your competitors and their listing, compared to you, on the internet search engine results list.

Choose your usual internet search engine, think about your sector and come up with a few quite specific words or phrases that describe loosely what products or services you offer. Then entre these into the search engine one at a time and take note which of your competitors are generally listed on that first page of results. Also check each page in turn until you find your own website details ( if this does not occur after the first 10 pages of results you can stop searching!).

At this position you will be able to tell if your position is a lot lower that the competitors or not. If not, and you are listed up there on page 1 of the results then either you have a very specific product, practically no competitors or your site is already optimized to the right level. Do double check at this juncture that you have not chosen a very specific keyword or phrase for your trial as this will twist results dramatically and give you a guarantee good Search Engine Placement!

If you have identified your website way down the listings, or indeed you have not located your site at all in the first 10 pages then some online promotion in the form of search engine optimization may be worth doing.

There are professional companies out there who will help you to develop your positioning in the search results and this is important for a decent amount of business. All the companies currently sitting on page one of the search results will draw the attention of at least 85% of the searching clients and as long as that they do actually offer what their potential customer wants they will almost definitely get the business. The customer will certainly not be trawling through page after page of search results when his answer is right there on page one.

The SEO Company can make certain that your positioning improves over the period of a month or two and the benefits should then make themselves clear.
