organic is for the long term and PPC is for both.. I dont really get SEO as something I should work hard to.. But well I see a lot of people w/their sites sitting on their organic rankings which is at the top..

Thanks a lot for the great information. Overall I would really rather choose to improve my SEO tactics rather than go and spend money on PPC ads. It just works a lot bette for me, and it is free of any charges for the most part. I really like your page layout. Keep up the great work.

Hi Jim – I think in a recession/slump the tendency will be to reduce spend on ads/ppc. Spend on seo wouldn’t neccessarily increase – but people would retain seo before advertising and even look at doing some home-grown/in-house SEO. Searches for SEO aren’t neccessarily ‘rising’ in volume, but performing well in a direct comparison to searches for PPC which are tailing off.

thanks mate

I appreciate the linkage, but I’m really not following how a rising search for the term “SEO” would reflect a deteriorating economy. I mean, what does search engine optimization have to do with the size of our wallets? If anything, as things fall further you’d expect PPC to GAIN ground since it is more relevant to making money online.
