Stay Competitive With These Online Marketing Techniques

By Kelly Erin


Internet marketing has many names: online, web, digital, or e-marketing. Whatever you choose to call it, it is imperative that you understand and respect the positive (or negative) effects that it can have on the overall success of your company. These tips and tricks offer insight into the many ways that you can use the internet to shape your marketing strategy.

Create content within your internet marketing messaging that doesn't simply push facts onto consumers, but rather, gets them to actively contribute. When consumers participate with your brand, for example, responding to a question you pose or participating in a contest, they are more likely to remember your brand when it comes time to make a purchase.

During an internet marketing campaign you may run into negative reviewers of your website, product or services. This is human nature and is bound to happen even for the best of the best. Instead of being defensive in response to negative reviews, apologize and ask how you or your company can make it better. This shows other potential customers that you care about them. If the reviewer continues to rant after you apologize, it is better to ignore them even if you wish you could tell them where to stick it!

Start a weekly blog relating to your product line. Explain new uses for your products or introduce new items. Keep it low-key and informative, but do include a convenient link to your product page. Encourage and publish customer reviews or comments about your products to make everyone feel included and important. Keep the blog fresh and interesting so people will keep coming back every week.

To have an internet marketing site that is truly worthwhile, it is important that you are always combating attrition. If you have a potential customer, you must hook them in whatever way possible. If your website is not clean, they may turn away. If your site is not interesting, they may turn away.

For new marketing websites, sites that have a small number of quality pages do better than sites that attempt to pack in too much information. Start with a small site to achieve the best search results. Search engines will be more likely to overlook your site when it has a million or two indexed pages, than when it only has ten to twenty thousand.

Always project a positive attitude. Even if you are marketing a solution to a problem, focus on the advantages of your solution rather than the pain or inconvenience of the problem. People viewing your website already know all about their difficulties and they would like to know how you can make everything better for them.

There are countless ways to abuse the trust of your customers when running an online business, so be sure that you're always out in front of every issue your market has. If someone doesn't like the product, handle the problem before it spreads like wildfire and ultimately causes your efforts to collapse like a house of cards.

Consider advertising your website on Facebook. Facebook advertising is extremely targeted and relatively inexpensive. One ad campaign on Facebook can dramatically increase the number of people that visit your website and place orders for your products or services. Additionally, Facebook ads generate automatic testimonials when users click on "Likes your Page."

Having true fans is a great way to succeed in internet marketing, so always put the effort in to make fans out of every visitor to your site. When you give people something to look forward to, your business is able to transcend the simple selling of a product and you become something much more forceful in business.

Try upselling your customers. When they reach an older page on your site, provide them with links to related newer products. This may cause them to add additional items to their orders, as they may see it as a convenient way to save by purchasing related items at the same time.

Use bold tags in your articles to draw attention to keywords or calls to action. Not only does bold text add emphasis, it improves the effectiveness of your article with readers who only skim it. Bold phrases will catch the eye and stick in the memory. Ideally, your bold keywords can arrest the reader's attention and make him or her read more closely.
