hi Alan,
I think it's a matter of opinion and is like asking is Bud better than Coors, or is Mac better than PC?
It also depends on what it is for.
What kind of website are you trying to promote?

I heard about SMO & SEO but so far only working on SEO. As said above SMO is Social Media Optimization. So it depends how you use it.

SEO or Search Engine optimization is by creating and improving a website so that it will rank high in the search engines and help potential customers or clients find the website.

Social Media Optimization (SMO) is an Internet marketing strategy which employs social media, like online communities, RSS feeds, social news buttons, blogging and incorporates third-party community functions like images and video. Social Media Optimization differs from Search Engine Marketing (SEM) because the focus of SMO is to drive traffic from sources other than search engines.

Both are great internet marketing tool which have gotten their own benefits. Combination of both of them is the key to get a much better result since SEO benefits from SMO through the backlinks that gives significant impact in search engine rankings.

SMO if done properly can give you plenty of traffic in short term while in SEO can give long term traffic to your site though, the process of doing it takes some time and effort.

I think both have their own significant values. SEO will give you traffic for long term and it is time consuming too, on the other hand SMO is also useful for creating huge traffic in short term.

I have checked it and find some informatino about their relationships.

They both plays a great role in driving traffic and the two work together rather than separately. It drives traffic to our site so why not combine them to get a much better result since SEO benefits from SMO through the backlinks that gives significant impact in search engine rankings. If both done correctly will work like a needle in a thread. SMO works great if your topic is about entertainment, music, sports, technology, and other internet related *plum*. It can give you plenty of traffic in short term while in SEO, it works great with almost all of the niches and it can give long term traffic to your site though, the process of doing it takes some time and effort.
