In Short, Affiliate marketing means you're selling someone else's product and rewarded by owner. Search engine marketing (SEM) is a form of Internet marketing that involves the promotion of websites by increasing their visibility in search engine results pages (SERPs) primarily through paid advertising.

Main difference between affiliate marketing vs search engine marketing : Search engine marketing is all about creating your own digital or physical products.  On the other hand, affiliate marketing is a sub-category of digital marketing that focuses on promoting another company’s products.

Affiliate marketing is the process of earning a commission by promoting other people's (or company's) products. You find a product you like, promote it to others, and earn a piece of the profit for each sale that you make.

Search engine marketing is the process of promoting your website in various search engines to build its popularity and reputation. Search engine optimization and social media optimization are two major processes used for search engine marketing.

SEO marketing is a long-term strategy and it requires more knowledge, time and money. It may has some differences in different countries/ cities (people even call it "Local SEO"). For example - diceto malaga. Do you know what is that? That's a good sample of Local SEO in Malaga.
Search engine marketing is a good idea for local business. Affiliate marketing - is not. That's the all difference.

Affiliates leverage their content, audience, and marketing channels to drive traffic and generate sales for the merchant.

It aims to capture the attention of users actively searching for specific keywords or phrases related to the advertised products or services.
