PPC or Organic SEO?

[cata]

It's not a matter of OR in my opinion, but a matter of AND.
PPC has the obvious advantage of being quick but it's paid. SEO has the advantage of being free but it takes some time in order to get good traffic.

I look at it this way.....PPC is paid advertising and done correctly you can generate some quick a consistent leads or potential sales.  If you don't pay your ads are gone in secs.   

Organic SEO on the other hand is something that takes time which can generate leads and potentials sales as well.  The only difference is, its FREE and they are forever.  Creating articles or content period will stay on the internet until you decide otherwise.

I think Organic SEO is most reliable and durable. It builds your company reputation truly.

I'd concentrate on building up your SEO for sure.  That will build over time and maintain a level of exposure that will go away when you stop using PPC. 

I would also however experiment with PPC and see how it works for you. Google is always giving away free $100 coupons to new users and that would be a good way to test it out.

Hey....

SEO is the best investment! The moment you stop paying PPC, your ad/site is nowhere. However, if you start doing SEO it is there as long as you do it correctly.

I am quite agree with you.... I would like to go with SEO... I think it is best option for money making...

PPC is result oriented and fast way to get the traffic and costly too.So one should always be aware about PPC with great working and cost too.
On the other hand SEO takes time and low cost as compared to PPC.
It depends upon the choice to follow.

I am also of the opinion that you should have both.  Focus more on the SEO for organic and have adwords going (don't require much work to keep going and testing). 

Last year adwodrs cost me about $22 per lead which is lower than most of the other things I do.  It added about 75% more leads to my web leads.  It's sort of hard to determine exactly the number of leads as sometimes I did not record some of the calls when I was driving and they were super far from being deals. 

It really works well when you search for we buy houses [city] and your website comes up 2 or 3 times on the page.

Natural Search Engine Optimization still refers to the processes and strategies that are undertaken to optimize a website so that it gets good relevance ratings based on the keywords that the site is responsive to. The only difference between Organic SEO and the SEO we now know is that natural Search Engine Optimization is a manual process vs. the current automated processes of page submission and alteration that characterizes "modern" SEO. Organic SEO focuses on promoting websites on the Natural search engine results also known as organic results in contrast with sponsored links (Pay-Per-Click/PPC). Natural Search Engine Optimization, if you really think about is a "purist" approach to website optimization because nothing is a "black box". As an expert in Organic SEO, you know optimization; you don't just blindly trust it.

SEO and PPC are both beneficial, but SEO being a more holistic approach helps in better promotion of your company and product than PPC. PPC being a paid service would although give you a visibility, but on only limited search engines where you have applied for PPC only. SEO if done properly will help you get better ranking in almost all search engines as all work on almost similar algorithm.

I think Organic SEO is includes adesign,user friendliness,keyword desity and hidden tag.but pay per click is used bidding.costs per  click differ on your industry and competition.

Organic SEO is the best method of SEO campaign. You can get fast Result bu other illegal method but they are not longer and as long it will be banned by Google. But Organic seo result last for long time.
