subject: Some Quick Notes on Web Marketing [print this page] Web marketing is a long-term commitment to get targeted traffic to a website, business, or affiliate network page. Before embarking on the long winded journey, it should be noted that there are key points of interest to look at before you dive in headfirst. By doing some preliminary thinking, and even hand written thought processes, you'll be able to navigate the ocean of marketing easier and gain tremendous results.
Before you move forward with any sort of web marketing plan, make sure that you answer some simple questions. The first thing you need to know is that you need to understand the target market you're looking for. If you can't answer generalized questions about the general public that you're aiming for, you'll fail. You need to understand that thinking your audience is the entire world wide web, is only a delusional point of reference, and isn't realistic. One you narrow down your target audience you can carefully plot where to go next.
Web marketing should not just be a cut and run type of scenario. You have to invest quality time into outlining the information you're going to use to get people to your site. Whether you're writing reviews, building websites, paying for PPC campaigns, or others, you'll have to make sure that you're in it for the long haul. Many start up and experienced marketers have given up too soon, and yield little to no results. The winning marketers are the ones that stick around and analyze each phase of their preliminary plan.
Statistics is the key to your Internet marketing Plan, keep and eye on the stats to see what's going up and down and how your campaign is doing. Graphs, charts all have their part to play in your analysis of how you're doing so keep checking and making notes on what is or has occurred over a period of time.
