Internet Marketing

Each area can be utilized to drive more traffic to your website, but they each have their strengths and weaknesses, and a robust online marketing strategy typically utilizes all four areas.

Search Engine Optimization

Search engine optimization (SEO) is simply the process of making sure that when a search engine scans your site, they get an accurate idea of what your organization does, sells, serves, etc. Many people have no idea that their website is doing such a poor job of describing to search engines what their business should be ranking for.

Sponsored or Pay-per-click (PPC) Advertising

Sponsored advertising essentially means that you must pay someone for your company’s ad placement there. This is typically referring to advertising on search results pages on Google, Bing, Yahoo, Facebook or another website in your industry that gets a lot of traffic. Some key advantages include fairly easy setup, great statistics, and very fast results. The disadvantage is you pay for it, and your placement is on the right side of the screen, typically, where people may not focus as much attention on. Read more on PPC Advertising here.

Social Media & Networking
