SEO VS PPC

[RobinKruegel]

In one line SEO is using algorithm science and PPC is to use money to get the sales.

[Deepak Kaushik]

Both are important and both are on their places. SEO is ongoing process and shows results after a period of time and PPC shows instant results.

I saw a similar thread on another forum, so I`m going to tell you what I told the people there:

The problem should not be PPC or SEO, it should be ppc AND seo.
SEO is used for longterm, it is a slow and steady way to increase traffic and PPC is a method of obtaining a fast increase of traffic in a short period of time.
Only when you use both methods you will see true benefits.

Pay per click is a faster way, a prospective quick-trick and an easy remedy which isn't maintainable. SEO of a website is something that is worth making an investment in and a good base for further success.

Both are good but SEO is way more cost effective than PPC.

PPC has nothing to do with rank..(SERP)....

Agree with you. SEO is best for the long term results.

SEO: SEO is the long term beneficial technique. It takes time but it is an organic method to get traffic on your website and web pages.

PPC: PPC, pay per click is the short term process. You have to pay ad publisher every time some money when the ad is just being clicked.

SEO is a technique by which we promote or showcase our page to the wide numbers of audience without losing single penny and just like Paid advertisement PPC offers to promote your page, product or services to number of targeted peoples and a certain amount will be deducted for the advertisement as per the chosen delivery method.

SEO is a “free” method of driving visitors to your site, while PPC is "paid" promotion of your site content.
