Here are the main advantages of one and another:
1. SEO - inbound links greatly influence page ranking, also relies in large part on title tags, headers, image title, bold text and proper keyword usage, aims to make a site easy to read for search engine spiders, places high priority on content quality and site structure.
2. SMO - proper implementation will benefit SEO efforts as well, not so much importance placed on coding and tags, relies in large part on visually attractive and striking elements, places a lot of importance on titles and headlines,

Both SEO and SMO are best at its place. SEO uses many techniques to get high page rank on the SERP while SMO uses many social media sites to increase the visibility of your product and services.

I Thought that Both are Important. Because SEO and SMO both are Different. You did Seo For Your Site , you may get your website in Search Engine Result Pages like google, bing, yahoo. Through that process you may popular and get conversions.

and You Did SMO For your Website, To increase your brand rate and may also get conversions through facebook, twitter, google+, Pinterest and linkedin.

Both Seo and SMO aim is same but implementation different.

SMO is Best to Popular earlier, Seo takes Time
