PPC will get you in front of eyes of potential customers instantly.
SEO takes much longer in general.
However, PPC can be quite expensive just to maintain campaign going.
With SEO it's all about constant growth and passive "free" traffic.
I do both.

Depends on your pocket and how much you want to gamble.
PPC = Fast and quick, going to be a hero or zero
SEO = Slow and steady progress, same term applies here too.
Choice is yours!

Yes it's way better.
SEO is Santa Klaus, while PPC is costly AF but gives you the right understanding of your business asap
But don't call it PPC, but PPM, because you are not actually paying per click, but per mille regardless of the platform you buy ads from. PPC only applies to publishers (the guys that serve the ads)

Use ppc to test ideas, because it is fast.
Longer term you should use seo on your winners to double down on your success.

PPC is scalable based on initial budget and reinvesting profits and you can optimise, split test etc.
SEO is just one Google update away to getting hammered.

PPC is still the best for quick results whereas SEO is the game of patience.

Hi!
Both PPC and SEO have their strengths, and which one is better depends on your goals. PPC offers quick results and immediate visibility, while SEO is a long-term strategy that builds organic traffic over time. If you need fast results, PPC might be better, but for sustainable growth, SEO is key. A mix of both often works best!

improvado conducted a study and found:
In terms of cost-effectiveness, SEO generally proves more economical in the long term with an ROI of 500% to 1,300%. Once a strong SEO foundation is established, a website can continue to attract organic traffic without ongoing costs for each visitor.
PPC generally has a 200% ROI. While offering immediate visibility, requires a continuous financial investment, as each click on an ad incurs a cost.

PPC and SEO each have their own strengths, so one isn’t necessarily better than the other. PPC gives you faster visibility and immediate results, but you need to keep paying for ads to stay on top. SEO takes more time to show results, but once you rank, you don’t have to pay for clicks, and the benefits are long-term

Both have their own benefits and limitations. You should try both and see what is working better for you. For me,SEO has worked better but that is because I have some good contacts in this niche
