Comparing Organic SEO and Paid SEO

Organic SEO

The goal of organic SEO is to create helpful content that answers the questions or solves the problems people are searching for. The content and your website’s coding must be friendly and approachable to humans while also paying attention to the technical details that search engines use to determine whether to list a page in the search results. Think of organic SEO like getting in line and waiting for your turn when your content rises to the top of the list.

Paid SEO

By using paid advertisements, you can take a shortcut to the front of the line and reach the top of the search results list quickly. The jump is temporary, however, and does not affect your organic rank. Once you stop paying, you return to the end of the line. Paid ads on search engines point to your website or landing page, and is the most effective when your destination pages are high quality and follow the same standards used to achieve organic SEO success.
