A Great Website Is One Thing, But Are You Marketing It Right?

By Heyd David


There are so many different facets to internet marketing, from newsletters to rotating banner ads to flash ads that take over your screen to social media. Here are some ideas that we've compiled, on a variety of internet marketing topics, which will help you diversify your strategies, but remain focused on your goals.

Facebook is a great cost-effective way to market your product or business online. Make a page that your friends (and fans of your product) can "like." Post news, articles and discussion questions, to get the fans more involved with the product. It is a simple way to market your product without too much effort.

Enter internet competitions for sites in your industry, or even for design. The added exposure you get will translate into more visitors and hopefully more sales. Even if you can't find a competition that is about your particular field, you can certainly enter contests about web design and appearance.

Internet marketing goes beyond the Internet. You can reach out to bloggers regularly and then invite them to one or more conferences you host to get together in person. This will help them feel connected with you, and they will continue to promote your services.

Facebook is a free way to enhance your Internet marketing. Since Facebook is so widely used and massively customizable, you can reach out to a much broader audience while maintaining the personality of your business. This also makes it easier for people on the go to find vital information about your business.

Monitor your own information. Find software that does the tracking for you, and use it to figure out everything that happens with your site. Track your personal sales, website hits, new customers, and the history of your payments. Doing so can ensure you have the records necessary to back yourself up should problems ever arise with your contracted company.

Try to limit the amount of text that you have on your website when you are promoting a product. Verbosity is something that can draw away potential customers, as very few people want to read a long description. Keep things short and to the point for the maximum chance at profit.

Learn that improvements can always be made. Just because you think your website looks perfect, does not mean that it is. Look at competitor pages to see how and why they are showcasing their products and try to one-up them. There is no such thing as a perfect website and the sooner a website owner recognizes that, the sooner they can make positive changes.

An important part of evaluating the internet marketing for your business is to use analytics. Analytics give you helpful information about how long visitors stay on your website and where they go while they are there. There are free programs that you can download, that will provide you with this data.

Choose targeted marketing campaigns instead of massive advertising blitzes. By personalizing your message and targeting it to your likely buyers, you can send the message that your product is useful and necessary and that you care about your consumers. If you go for a massive blitz, you will dehumanize your customers and make them resent you for "spamming".

You don't need to pay to have your business added to a business directory. There are so many free options available that will give you just as much exposure as the ones that ask you to pay for their services. Look up for the free ones and use those instead, since they are just as useful.

Every day, new technologies are appearing, which an internet marketer can take advantage of. Continue to read about new ideas and then, implement them into your marketing strategies and you will find great success in this career. Someone who is always bettering themselves can turn that into bettering their business, too.
