PPC vs SEO comparison showing cost and ROI differences for UK B2B companies

Quick answer

SEO delivers higher long-term ROI for UK B2B companies — a median 748% return over three years versus approximately 200% for PPC. But PPC generates leads within hours while SEO takes 3–6 months to gain traction. Most established B2B companies should invest in both, starting PPC-heavy and shifting towards SEO as organic rankings compound.
