SEO and PPC both have the same goal: to increase relevant traffic to your website that converts into sales or lead generation. Pay per click and SEO accomplish this goal in slightly different ways with different advantages and disadvantages.

We can not compare the both. SEO is a free practice of creating links and enhancing the traffic while PPC is a paid practice of sharing the traffic and inquiries for a particular keywords you pay for which.

If you are starting - SEO is much better.

The problem with PPC is that you can lose serious money before you start understanding how the process works.

Good luck!

So someone might ask, why would I bother with all the time and resources needed for SEO when I can just buy my way to the top with PPC? The easiest answer is that PPC can be expensive. Paying for placement at the top of a page, especially in one of a competitive industry, requires a significant budget. Curious what a certain keyword will cost you? Try using  Google's Keywords tool. SEO is much less expensive, especially for someone who has a significant number of keywords they want to use.

For me, SEO is better because it doesn't require money, with very little investment you can start SEO and you would keep learning and enjoying too..

While PPC takes money, even you have to test products first to earn money.

When should one can use both these things:

If someone has started a new business ans he is worried on getting quick results. If at that point of time, they have to ask professional for any suggestion, they would surely come up with, that in the beginning you can go with PPC as SEO is not that quick with the results and once to start getting SEO results, you can stop spending on PPC.
So, both are necessary.

This research makes it clear that it's very important for your brand to have a strong presence in the search engines, ensuring that you're in front of your target audience. However, there's still a big decision to make - whether to use SEO (Search Engine Optimization, or naturally ranking high in the organic results) or PPC (Pay-Per-Click ads, the Sponsored Links and purchased ads on a Google search) to get in front of your target?

SEO and PPC sometimes seen as natural enemies we thought it would be helpful to pit the two against each other and see which is right for different scenarios.v You can pay for traffic using the PPC advertising programs provided byGoogle Adwords, Yahoo Search Marketing and others. They enable you to display ads in the sponsored results section of each search engine's results page.

SEO and PPC both have their advantages. 

As a newbie starting out it takes time to build  creditability with your audience. So PPC can be used to test how well your site converts. Because you do not know how well your site converts until you receive a lot of traffic. And PPC will tell you immediately if you are going in the right direction.

SEO done the right way will have long term results whereas PPC is generally short term.

First SEO, PPC follow.
SEO is useful to reproduce the visitors. With the number of visitors, we can easily earn from PPC.
But do not ever expect much with the PPC, because there Adsblock  :D

PPC is good If you are giving something at free of cost else getting a customer through PPC is very hard. You will lose lot of money and get only 1 or 2 customers.

SEO is better.

The main difference between Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and Pay Per Click (PPC) is that traffic coming from SEO (organic) is free while traffic generated from PPC is not free (as the name implies you have to pay a cost per click).  This is also the reason why you may sometimes see the terms organic search engine listings and paid search engine listings (or Paid Search Advertising – PSA).

Both SEO and PPC are part of Search Engine Marketing (SEM) which is one of the tools you can use as part of your overall Internet Marketing campaign.

Why SEO is better:
- It's return om investment will continue to rise long after PPC has peaked. This is because of several reasons. If you consistently searching for similar terms then you will start to see the same ads and develop the equivalent of banner blindness;
- 85% of clicks resulting from a search are on  the organic links rather than the paid ads;
- 86% of web searchers trust organic SEO listings more than sponsored/paid PPC listings.

Why PPC is better:
- it has instant results and can generate visitors as soon as you turn on the taps. Adding in a crowd sourced company like Trada and you can not only take the work off your plate - but  see a higher ROI as a result;
- you can manage your budget and measure your ROI much more easily with PPc;
- 50% of people arriving at a retailers site from paid ads are more likely to buy than those who came from an organic link.

SEO is the clear winner here. It's not just about ranking higher in search results – it's about building a strong online presence and establishing your brand as an authority in your industry. PPC is just a quick fix, a way to buy your way to the top of the search engine results page. But once you stop paying for those ads, your traffic will dry up.
With SEO, you're building a long-term foundation for your business that will continue to drive traffic and generate leads even after the initial investment.

PPC is better for quick test. Example, you have MVP and you want launch AB test. (For check conversion rate, make funnel etc.)
But SEO is better in all other cases.

If this message takes 20 likes, I will launch a reality show to show the difference.

SEO can provide sustainable, long-term organic traffic, but it takes time and effort to build up. PPC offers more immediate visibility, but you have to keep paying to maintain that traffic. Ultimately, I think the best approach is to use a mix of both and continuously test and optimize.
