Hi Sean,
The benefits are there for SEM marketing as this article shows. I’m not ready yet to spend money on advertising so I will stick to organic SEO and learn about this form of attracting online traffic.

I appreciate you pointing out the difference between SEM and SEO Sean. Now I will be able to distinguish when I hear the two options discussed.

That is a clear explanation of the difference between SEM and SEO. I particularly like the point that SEM works better with a foundation of SEO – and why woudln’t you optimise a site/[page anyway?

At least with SEO money can come in with none leaking out as it can more disastrously with SEM

Now I know! When you strart out in internet marketing all the terms like SEO, SEM, SERP just confuse the hell out of you….but bit by bit as you learn them term by term it all falls into place…and SEO and SEM are explained very clearly here. Thanks \m/

Hi Sean

Thank you for a well written article that clearly defines the concepts of SEM and SEO.

While I see the benefits of using both, I still need to learn a lot about SEO as I don’t have volume or quality of traffic to my site yet.

I want to learn as much as I can about search engine optimisation so that I can get my site ranking to no 1. This article and many other articles you have written on SEO are teaching me to do just that. Now I have to take massive action.

Thank you.

Hi Sean,

I’ve worked hard at understanding and implementing SEO strategies and I think I’m getting there. I’m still learning with SEM and I’m nearly ready to have a go. Especially since I may be able to find a free trial offer. You really make it look easy.
