Getting top listing in the search results is a contest in relevancy, authority and popularity. The objective of search engine optimization and search engine marketing is to bring highly targeted visitors to your website.
While SEO focuses primarily on improving your website ranking in the "organic" search results, search engine marketing looks at alternative ways of bringing traffic to your website. This is frequently done in conjunction with traditional advertising such as promotion via banners, signage on your vehicles, printing of your website address on your business cards and brochures etc.
