    Chose one, then find a partner that does the other. My business partner is a great programmer. I handle all of the ideas, marketing, and seo. Works out well for us.

    You need both basically but don't try to do them both yoursef. I for one know I'll never learn any coding ever in my life...:)

    Be good in both of them. I know that specialising in one area makes really good in that particular area but it can get you in a dead end! I think you should be a flexible person that can adjust yourself to both areas! ;)

    A little bite of both ... if he will do web programming... i mean , a web programmer must to known some web design , html , ajax, seo ,etc... when creating a big online database,no?


    But a normal programmer... working on C++ and writing PC games... don't really must to known all this things ;)

    A software programmer has to be really good at it to get anywhere with it.

    A SEO guy can ramble on about whatever and still slip by :p

    Whichever you're more passionate about. If you choose a career that you love, it will work out better for you in the long run
