Which service is better: Organic or Paid?
Both services have their positives and negatives. However, they are most effective when used in conjunction. A good PPC campaign will position your site on any keyword you choose, guaranteed. The negative is the fluctuation in PPC bid price. It can be very expensive and it is shown that only 10% of users click on the PPC links as opposed to organic results. Organic listings bring in far more traffic, but are not guaranteed rankings. Used in conjunction, a good PPC and SEO campaign can fully utilize Google's user base.

Unethical SEO techniques that seek to manipulate or exploit the search engine algorithms to bring faster rankings can lead to the site being banned or penalized by the search engines.
