I don't know why people don't accept that SEO is a part of SEM, SEM is search engine marketing that include PPC and SEO both.

 

SEM also contains PPC and Paid Listings while SEO is part of SEM

Contrary to it SEM is related with earning money via of marketing. Google adsense, PPC ,affiliate marketing all lies in the category of SEM

I came to knew about both from G4EF.

 

Hi,
SEO concentrates on meta tags, titles, keyword density, effective and clean html coding whereas SEM looks into the search engine submission, paid inclusion, directories submission, traditional adds, PPC (Pay Per Click), PPS (Pay Per Sale) and press release.

 

SEO is ought to earn good volume of traffic and will convert visitors into potential traders. While, SEM finds traders to directly buy their product and services.
Bigger companies/sites need to include SEM in their plans, whereas smaller businesses can get away with just SEO :pleased:
and yes.. i agree, overall SEO is a piece of SEM.

The SEM is meant to be both a tutorial and a general information resource.If you frequent other prominent SEM resources you will find that this tutorial, like most search engine promotion sites, tends to go over the same ground. This is because there are no secrets to successful search engine positioning - just experience, a lot of research and tons of hard work.
