SEM is more related to actually submitting your site to search engines and getting them to try to cache & index your page. Where as SEO is more about actually building and optimizing your site and content so that it ranks higher on the search engines.

SEO is a part of SEM..SEM including ppc and seo

 

SEO and SEM are the two common terms used by the webmasters. I think SEM is a broad term. It's everything that can be done to utilize the technology of search engines with the goal of promoting a web site and increasing its traffic. And SEO, therefore, would be a subset of SEM.

 

SEM is a much broader term than SEO, and actually includes SEO as one of its techniques. SEM is all that a company can do to advertise itself on a search engine, including paid inclusion and other ads.
