Please suggest what is best and how.

    Both are good and entirely different. PPC is faster tough, and many times people use it before SEO so they know which keywords are worth targeting with their SEO campaigns.

    In that case SEO is best because I think so having adsense in a website does not allow paid campaign at any instance. And in that context PPC is not recommended.

      Hi rmacklyn,

      That is not entirely accurate.

      PPC advertising is indeed permitted for AdSense publishers as long as you are following all the rules and policies for both AdWords and AdSense programs.

    If site is fresh, you need to go for PPC, as for the fresh website you need instant advertising by PPC advertising and can earn more traffic in less time. or there will be a number of users who come to know your brand, services or information.

    But if you go for SEO, It will drive same traffic in with time consumption but it will be free of cost.

    Now the decision will be your you want quick adverting with good traffic by paying good amount or want Free or time consuming way to promote a website.

    Thanks!

    PPC can bring you faster results so you can run a PPC campaign and test which keywords convert better and then try with SEO to rank for those keywords.
    Use PPC when you have a high converting product and use SEO when you have a limited budget to spend on advertising.

    Most people come to ppc initially for fatest results while losing money due to new to the game, in ppc, campaigns/keywords/ads tweaking needs hard and consistent work, if done well, definitely an easier option to go.

    While for seo, you need to get reliable seo provider to do the work, not black hat stuff, for better long term solution.

    Hi Sona

    It depends on your needs and budget. If you want more traffic fast and are willing to pay for it, then PPC might be right for you. But if you're operating on a tight budget, it may make more sense to invest time in chasing high search rankings through SEO.

    But if you have even a little capital to invest in PPC advertising, consider giving it a try because it offers a number of benefits.

    PPC has a learning curve, though. Start with small, highly targeted campaigns and tie your PPC campaign to your Google Analytics account. It can tell you which conversions are from PPC visitors and whether your ROI is positive or negative.

    One major weakness of SEO is that algorithms change from time to time. When that happens, sites that have been optimized in one way can lose rankings -- and profits -- practically overnight.
    But when you pay for traffic, you're assured a steady stream of visitors, no matter what changes Google and the other search engines make.

    Don't waste time with SEO.

    Even if they don't come out with another animal farm update, you will face competitors trying to derank your site.

    I dunno about you, but what you can achieve in 6 months or a year with SEO, I can do that in 1 day with PPC.

    SEO may be "free" (if you doesn't count in the cost of seo softwares and articles writing), but if I can probably make more than you even I spend on PPC daily.

    Eg, I may be spending 500 per day right now and making back 1200.
    So what is 500/day to me?
