The Concepts Of Online Marketing

By Evan Garcia


Online marketing is a method of business promotion that started with the Internet. It is one of the wonderful things that the Internet and its being made accessible publicly introduced into our lives. Advertising was done before then, but arguably, it is the Internet that has allowed business owners to reach the most people and with ease.

This way of promoting business is very wide and new models come up each and every day. One of the main methods is Search Engine Optimization, SEO. Other methods are such as social book marking, internet advertising, writing articles and email advertisements. These are techniques almost every marketer uses but there are many others.

SEO has to do with making the business website better placed within the search engine results for a particular keyword or keyword phrase. Techniques like optimizing content and reciprocal linking are used to achieve this. The idea is to ensure that the website is shown as early as possible on the Search Engine Results Page for a search containing the keyword.

Sending promotional email messages to recipients who are in whichever way related to the business niche is what comprises email marketing. Lists of recipients are shared between business owners whose companies occupy the same niche. Spam filters, however, have increasingly limited the effectiveness of this method.

Advertising on the web is another common method. Advertisement banners are placed on same-niche websites and sometimes even on the search engine results page for related keywords. Depending on other factors, these advertisements may be charged.

Writing articles is yet another mode of online marketing. It is quite true that developing lots of unique content is the most effective way of promoting a business website. Under the categories provided by ezines and article directories, a business owner can choose to write and deploy promotional articles. Interested readers are then channeled to the website through links placed in the resource box.
