Internet Marketing Strategy
Wednesday, September 1st, 2010Internet marketing experts from all over the world gather together every year to discuss a variety of subjects and issues. During one such conference the topic was Internet Marketing Strategy. I was amazed to see how little is actually know about the subject. Each expert presented 5 random websites and then everyone tore them apart. The end result was that out of 200 random websites we only found 6 that had a clear internet marketing strategy in place. Surprisingly all 200 had been SEO’d. All were on on either page 1 or page 2 in the search results page of the major search engines for roughly 80% of their keywords.
Not surprising was of the 200 websites analyzed, only the 6 with a clear internet marketing strategy were hugely successfull. The others reported sluggish sales if any. It became very clear to us that we needed to educate people on what an internet marketing strategy is.
