Social media marketing refers to the process of gaining website traffic or attention through social media sites.

social media optimization is the strategy used to drive the traffic to your site from sources other than search engines. Some of the SMO techniques include blog commenting, social bookmarking, social networking, video and photo sharing.

SEO is divided into two on page and off page optimization and getting organic traffic and keyword ranking.
SMO is social media optimization is not helpful in getting keyword ranking but helps you lot only in getting huge amount of traffic to your website.

Hello Friends,

SMO refers to the process of refining a website (optimizing it) so that it's awareness and content are easily spread through social mediums and online communities by users and visitors of the website. This can include anything done "on-page" such as improving the design and usability of the website so that it becomes more compelling to users, in an effort to help them spread it through social media sites. The simplest example of SMO is represented by all the "Digg this" and "add to delicious" icons and links that are all over the web today.

SMM on the other hand plays more of an active role in relation to social media by referring to the creation and distribution of content and other messages through the social web by some form of viral marketing. This can be anything from creating compelling content that gets bookmarked and even hits Digg's home page to spreading a viral video by putting it on YouTube and other social media websites. It's about the things that are done off-site, for example, participating in online communities where your customers hang out would be an active role that falls under SMM.

Social media optimization (SMO) is the process of streamlining a website in ways that make it easier for visitors to share and spread site content across various social media sites.

social media marketing (SMM) focuses more on using social networking sites to generate interest, views, sales and interaction with a company or its products and services.
