SEO vs PPC: What Is the Difference?

SEO earns unpaid visibility in search results, while PPC means paying for ads that appear for chosen searches. Both can work, in different ways.

How they differ

With PPC you pay each time someone clicks, and ads stop when the budget stops. SEO takes longer to build but can keep bringing visitors.

Paid ads suit quick launches, offers and testing keywords before you invest in content.

Many businesses use PPC for speed and SEO for steady growth, and share keyword insights between them.

Do not treat the two as enemies. Check which search terms convert in ads and use them to guide your content.
