SEO vs Social Media Marketing
The published figures from each course's own page, side by side — duration, fees, tools, careers and starting pay — so you can compare without opening two tabs.
| SEO | Social Media Marketing | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | the discipline of earning search traffic instead of paying for every click | building audiences and running paid social across Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn |
| Duration | 13 Weeks · 3 Months | 17 Weeks · 4 Months |
| Fees | Ask a counsellor for the current fee | Ask a counsellor for the current fee |
| Fresher salary (Punjab) | ₹15,000 – ₹28,000 / month | ₹14,000 – ₹26,000 / month |
| Mode | Classroom, Weekend & 1-on-1 | Classroom, Weekend & 1-on-1 |
SEO's published band tops out higher (₹28,000 vs ₹26,000 for a fresher) — though the gap closes fast with a portfolio, and both climb well past these figures with experience.
Every business in Jalandhar that wants enquiries without an ad budget needs someone who understands search.
