There are very many UK businesses still without a website, and for the majority that do have one, most have less than effective SEO.B.T.W. I dont see SMO as being a part of SEO. Both are a separate part of marketing and promotion.
@g1smd: Agreed. I meant to say that SMO was now a viable part of internet marketing in conjunction with standard SEO. I tend to still use SEO as an umbrella term for internet promotion. *slapped wrists*
Im generally a picky sod for using the exact words to describe stuff. :-)

Ive always wondered if SMO would come under SEM? Dannys term was meant to be all inclusive for online marketing activity. Only problem I see is that many of these platforms generate traffic in their own right, outside of the channels of the SEs.
I call SMO a "kissing cousin" of SEO. Theyre closely related, and I think they should be done together, but I wouldnt put them under one or the other.
In general we may be behind the US, but we do have the best grey hats in the world.
Its because Google is based in the U.S. and people who know very little about SEO mainly equate the two.
