Internet Marketing: Easy Tips to Get Your Name Out There!
By Sharon Hendricks
Being 'out there' used to be considered a bad thing, but in the world of the Internet you need to have your name out there or else! While it used to be an offshoot to regular marketing techniques, Internet Marketing has become its own dedicated branch, with Internet Marketing experts and Internet Marketing consultancy firms some of the highest paid careers in the world. Anyone who thinks that their business can last the long term without some form of Internet Marketing has their head in the sand. However, you don't need to be an Internet Marketing guru to implement some basic strategies. Below are a few tips to help your company make it to the big times:
1- Hire a Web Designer.
If the website isn't your first priority it's okay; you're most likely too busy running the business to worry about the upkeep of the website. But people don't trust old or dodgy looking websites so you need someone to keep it updated and fresh. This doesn't mean that you have to spend a lot of money; a quick ad in the local high school newsletter should yield you some good designers who are happy to work for little to no money.
2- Social media marketing is big.
Facebook isn't just for high school and college students anymore; it's a legitimate business strategy. People 'follow' the companies and the stores that they like not only to show to the world who they are but to receive exclusive updates about what the business is doing. A Social media assistant can help you to get the most out of your Facebook and Twitter accounts by setting them up correctly and advertising them in the right way. It's also helpful to keep this information new and current, and even interesting. If you're a plumbing business ask people to send you pictures of the fanciest bathroom they have ever seen, if you're a cleaning company ask people to Tweet about the messiest room they have ever been in.
3- Article marketing is another interesting way to direct people to your business.
Article marketing is a different way to get people interested in your company. Many businesses from all over the world have been known to hire a writer to write articles or reviews on topics similar to the business. At the end of the work a link is placed to the company's website. These articles don't necessarily have to be about the company and the less like an advertisement they sound the better, but people who read these often want to know more about the topic so they click on the link.
All of these Internet Marketing strategies will cost you money in the outset, but if they are done correctly you will earn the money back within a year of their implementation. The key factor is to keep the information fresh and updated; even if nothing major has changed it's still good to update the website and the information on it to keep it from going stale.
