Internet Marketing 101: Your All-In-One Guide

If you have not done so already, a way to improve your business is to consider internet marketing. The following article should provide you with a basic understanding of internet marketing strategies and how your business can benefit from an online marketing campaign.

The benefits of site wide links are well worth the bit of time that they take to input them. These powerful links occur on each page of your website to allow continual, easy access to key pages you want visitors to see. A few good examples of typical site-wide links are contact pages and pages that list out advertising options. Often, you can find these links at the bottom of each page on the site. The location makes them easy to spot, and a clear font makes them easy to read. These links are site-wide and should be laid out in a format for you or your visitors to be easily directed throughout the site. It is important that your menu order makes sense. Also be sure to include short descriptions of the items listed in your menu.

Meta tags cannot be seen by your visitors, but search engines use them to determine what your website is about and how helpful your content is. Make sure that your first few meta tags get to the core of what your website is about, as they are the most important ones to the search engines. Limit your use of meta tags to a reasonable amount, and implement alternative tags as well. It is important that you conduct keyword research to allow yourself to pinpoint which keywords are the most searched by your target market.

It is important to make effective use of the H tag. Header tags mark a segment of text as being more important than the surrounding text. The h1 tag indicates that the tagged text should appear in a bold, large font. Be sure to use this tag for the main title in your page. The other h2 and h3 tags can be used as alternate titles for your subsections in your website. The benefits of this practice are that it makes your site easier for users to browse and navigate and also allows the search engine spiders to find essential content on your pages.

Look for new ways to promote your products online. Although the majority of webmasters tend to use proven SEO and marketing methods, you can still look into everything that Internet marketing has to offer. Internet culture regularly adopts a new video or website that becomes a ‘buzz’ or goes ‘viral’. This refers to an internet sensation that is discussed by many users. A lot of ‘buzz’ only lasts a short amount of time, but it can boost sales if used correctly. There is no way to tell what will become wildly popular: you can only do your best to create original and funny content, and encourage everyone you know to share it on social media sites or YouTube. By watching viral videos and other popular web content, you will have a better idea of what type of content appeals to internet users.

This article only covers a few of the internet marketing tools you can use. Use these ideas as a springboard for your marketing strategies, and continue to think of ways to improve your campaigns on your own.
