The world of Internet marketing is massive, growing, and dynamic. The experience of entering this world for the sake of your business can be a slightly intimidating and daunting experience. On the Internet, the word "marketing" has many different connotations for different people. Therefore, it will be helpful if you understand the various ways that you can "market" your services or products on the Internet. This article shares the 5 basic principles of internet marketing.



The 5 Fundamental Ways to Start Your Internet Marketing Campaign


Fundamental#1: Personal Website


Before you get any deeper into the Internet marketing world, you must have a website. A personal business website is a sure shot way for long-term success. After all, aren't you better off on your own rather than using someone else's website and depending on it for your success? Getting someone to create your website is easy now, especially since you are spoiled for choice with the kind of software packages available online. And the prices are good too! Keep your website simple for search engine optimization and future changes, if any may be needed.



Fundamental#2: Internet Advertising


Now there are 2 distinct types of online advertising - free and paid. Using any of these two types is definitely not as useful as using a combination of both. Not only does a well planned online advertising campaign, which involves both free and paid advertising, give you tremendous exposure but it also helps you extend the reach of your business over the net. Simplest form of paid internet advertising are banner ads, besides pay per click, classified ads in article directories, etc help push targeted traffic on your website. Free advertising includes free classified, link building, article marketing etc.



Fundamental#3: E-Newsletter


One of the best ways to promote your business is by publishing your very own newsletter that is emailed to people who visit your website and subscribe to it. Your e-newsletter should provide useful information that is SEO and related to your products and/or services. Believe me, this is a very effective long-term internet marketing strategy.



Fundamental#4: Email Marketing


If you want to kick start your business and don't want to spend too much money just yet, then email marketing is the way to go. Not only do you get your message across to thousands of prospective buyers, but you also manage to create a long-long mailing list with valuable information.



Fundamental#5: Blogging


Today, blogs have captured the imagination of the average "netizen". A blog is a web log of your thoughts written on a regular basis. You can have your own blog site using Blogger.com or WordPress. Blogs help you connect to your target audience with minimal effort and maximum efficiency.


Of course the internet offers almost limitless opportunities to anyone, anywhere to promote their business and make money once you learn the art of internet marketing.
