Yes, definitely SMO (social media optimization) is one of the most powerful techniques for getting instant traffic but rarely generates backlinks through use of networking websites such as Facebook, Google+, StumbleUpon and so on.

I think SMO is only for getting traffic.

Neither are any good. SEO is too competitive and the anti-SEO algorithms are too powerful; Social media will give you nothing unless you actually have the user interest and relationships to build a network organically and "optimization" will only hurt the quality of your presence.

SEO and SMO and the like are nothing but buzzword snake oil.

I have been doing SMO for quite some time now and I would say that this has really helped me to increase rankings as well as getting traffic to my site which has improved the ranking in search engines.

SMO and SEO both are different methods which are useful to increase the web site popularity and increase the Page Rank in the search engine. But to get traffic and ranking SMO also useful for it.

Some expert say that SEO and SMO both are different so that as per them SMO does not help SEO ranking and some are say that both are relevant because they are just difference on the base of social networking concept. When we are doing SEO that time we are just giving page rank up through  Google strategy and SMO is giving rank on base of social networking site.

Yes, SMO helps to increase SEO ranking.
