    SEO is optimizing your site for search engines google,yahoo,baidu and etc but SMO is optimizing your site for social media such as facebook. SEO need keywords to do that and SMO doesn't require keywords. Just by fan pages and etc can do SMO

    SEM is search engine marketing and SEO is search engine optimization. SEO is a part of SEM.

    Ya, also... you need to evaluate the relevance of SMO to your business/domain. I've been around for a while and what I would advise is... don't Over-Play the Social Media card. It's sure to last for a while... but the love affair will wear off.

    Right now Google is being FLOODED with mass link bombs from everything from RSS feeds to blogs and every such thing. Sorting through that Mass of SPAM is probably what this Big Google update is about. Stick to traditional SEO and Quality/ Relevant link building. Apply social media only when appropriate.
