    I think that social media marketing is a great way to grow a business both physical and online.

    You may not try to totally separate the 2 when you are talking about search engine optimization, because what you have on many social sites will directly effect your serp(search engine results pages) listings. The answer is above all else seo, but you may mix in your smo to get there.

    SMM is more for brand awareness and direct traffic. SEO is for online visibility in niche related areas

    SMO is more focused on improving your linkability
    SMO will encourage you to share your website

    SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. In SEO you learn the techniques that how to get backlinks, how to create links how to get rank in search engine. SMO stands for Social Media Optimization. In SMO social bookmarking and social networks are the main things. Both are helpful go business or website popularity.

    SEO is search engine optimization that means optimizing web site to drive traffic from search engines.
    SMO is social media optimization that simply means using social medias to drive traffic on your web sites from your social network and connections.

    There are various differences in SEO and SMO like:-
    1)For SEO,the title tags of a page tells the search engine what a page is about and carries a lot of weight in the rankings where as for SMO titles and headlines are extremely important to grab attention and getting users to click through.
    2)The Content must be readable by the search engine spiders in SEO whereas in SMO it is readable by humans.
    3)Quality content is important in order to rank of the site but In SMO quality content is important to hold the reader's attention and win their approval.
