This is fairly new to the web but it is definitely a trend and a strong one in its development as a preferred link building tool.

SEO and SEM are both used almost interchangable, they commonly are bandied by webmasters. Is there really a difference? If there is a difference, what is it?
For starters, SEM is an abbreviation for Search Engine Marketing, and is a broad label that covers pretty much anything that will get your site listed more visibly in search engine results. This can range from utilizing back links to deliberately submitting your URL to search engines. By contrast, SEO is narrower, and stands for Search Engine Optimization. SEO is a subcategory of SEM, but any individual SEM operation does not necessarily contain SEO.
It’s important to know the difference between the two terms; make sure you ask for all information if you’re unsure before going and spending money on a SEO or SEM package. For example, a company offers you a package, if you don’t ask, and get all the information, you might be buying into a package that merely is the company submitting your website URL to a few search engines, something you can easily do yourself.

Otherwise, SEO covers an extremely large range of tactics, strategies, tools and software that one can lose track of in the maze. As for the other concept, page ranking represents the estimation of the page importance or value, performed by the search engine on the basis of the optimization we’ve mentioned above. Read more...
