    If it was me... I would do SEO and PPC ad network (not search network)... this way you get high ROI lol...(this is only if you want to make a lot of money and have a lot to invest).

    Same opinion here. SEO is the base, PPC - just another brick in the wall.

    pay per click and others are just an effective way of getting quality traffic.

    I think you should spend 20% of your budget on PPC and 80% on SEO. I have used this technique and it worked for me.

    I look upon SEO and PPC as being able to compliment each other.

    In the initial stages while SEO is being worked on PPC provides a short-term (though expensive) traffic solution.

    As natural rankings start to increase the PPC budget can be cut back.

    In the long-run though you can use PPC to pick-up the long-tail search phrases that provide cheap clicks and it isn't cost effective to SEO for.
