It’s not enough to build the perfect website. Without effective digital marketing of your goods or services, if no one sees your site, how will you drive home sales? Essential to today’s Internet success is the ability to effectively market your site through several different avenues.

You will want to take advantage of the remarkable number of social media outlets, for one thing, including Facebook, MySpace and Twitter. Simply establish accounts on each service, list your products or services in an interesting way and list a payment option (be sure to give plenty of contact information). Keep the social sites updated on a regular basis to keep interest active and join any relevant groups, and participate in them regularly. The key is to keep your product relevant and current in the minds of the social media participants, and keeping it interesting. Keeping your message relevant with video content through the use of YouTube is an easy, cheap way to hold interest on your social networking or business websites.

Efficient digital marketing efforts will also include a working knowledge ...
... of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) including copywriting for maximum search engine hits. This means that when a browser such as Google goes trolling for words in an Internet user’s query, they find the sites with the most relevant content and relevant search words in your html meta tags, to land first in the search results. This means mentioning your keywords and phrases over and over again, but making it seem like you are not purposefully doing so. Browsers frown upon intentional redundancies, and for sure your potential customers will not want to read content that is obviously designed only to get them to the site. Putting your customers in the uncomfortable position of feeling duped certainly is not your goal; effective online marketing and sales is.

Keeping track of how your marketing efforts are doing is a must as part of your campaign. Using Google Analytics is an effective means; simply get a Google account and follow the instructions for marketing tools, including the analytical data offered on who’s searching for what you’re selling, how they came to your site (via another site or via a search), how long they stayed and which pages they visited. You can learn which sites are driving traffic your way and capitalize on this with additional efforts.

A potential money-maker for your site itself is Pay-per-Click (PPC) advertising, where you install banner ads that your customers will click, meaning a paycheck for you. You can choose only ads that are pertinent to your business, keeping your service or product foremost in your customer’s mind.

Beyond Internet digital marketing, consider television, radio and cellular phones as marketing possibilities. There are plenty of companies around who will help you make the most of your marketing budget, giving you the most for your dollar when exploring your sales opportunities and the most effective means for getting yourself out in front.
