I think "good to see you" is more common. It's quite like when we say "Nice to meet you" the very first moment you meet someone for the first time and "nice meeting you" when you say goodbye to that person you've just met.
You say "it was good seeing you" when you remember that encounter or when or when you are saying goodbye.

Hope you understand what I mean!

"It's good to see you" ¡Qué bueno verte!
"It was good seeing you" ¡Qué bueno haberte visto!

Cheers!

[quote=mem286]"It's good to see you" ¡Qué bueno verte!
"It was good seeing you" ¡Qué bueno haberte visto!


hay variantes. a mí me sonarían más naturales: ¡Qué lindo verte/encontrarte!" ("It's good to see you"), "Me encantó verte/encontrarte" ("It was good seeing you") -- en el ámbito rioplatense, claro.
