What is the difference between SEO and SEM

SEO stands for search engine optimization. SEO is very important for online businesses and generate more traffic for any website will come from the search engines. The biggest search engine is undoubtedly Google, which garners more than 400 million searches per day, hence, most SEO campaigns target this specific search engine.

As stated above, SEO is comprised of two different activities.

SEM – Search Engine Marketing – is the management of business visibility on search engines. This includes PPC (pay-per-click), SEO (search engine optimisation), content creation, and in my opinion it will increasingly also include social media and online reputation management.
PPC is a specific field only concerned with paid ads, the main example being Google AdWords.
 
The difference between SEO and SEM is simply that Search Engine Optimization is part of Search engine marketing or Search marketing as it is widely known. Both processes aim in increasing visibility in search engines. SEO is about optimizing the web property to get better rankings in the search results while SEM goes beyond SEO. It involves other methods as well which can get you more search engine visitors like PPC advertising.
