    Hi,

    The SMO or Search Marketing Optimization is vast concept of Internet marketing to promote your products and services through online process. SEO or search engine optimization is part of SMO or Internet marketing. From my point of view is that Seo is basic part of SMO or internet marketing. SMO touches vast entities where as Seo is touch only one of the SMO segments.


    Thanks,

    I'm afraid, you're mistaken when referring to SMO as Search Marketing Optimization, it's Social Media Optimization, therefore, SMO can be called one of the aspects in SEO

    SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization and SMO is Social Media Optimization. While some people tend to think that there is a difference SMO actually falls under the umbrella of SEO as an Off Page Optmization activity. SEO is a long term activity while SMO is a short time activity that brings quick results.

    SEO is not an competitor for SMO. They are both different aspects and both are inevitable for success of your brand. SMO brings a lot of traffic if done correctly.

    I don't think that any person, who has at least a light idea of what SEO and SMO are, can ever suggest that these are the competitors. The overall idea is that SEO and SMO (being a part of SEO) shouldn't be missed by the company in its online marketing strategy
