Internet Advertising Options




By Gerry Lewis

Your online business will likely require more
advertising than a contemporary business downtown, yet
some new to the world of online business do not spend
the time and money to advertise their business
appropriately and are, in turn, loosing money. Your
online business is crammed into the world wide web
along with thousands of others selling the same
product or service as yourself. Consider this
scenario: In your hometown you want to open an art
supply store. In that same town there are thousands
of art supply stores. In order for your business to
be successful, it will have to stand out in some way
from the others. This is exactly what is happening
when a business is opened online. There is so much
competition, that you must take drastic measures to
ensure that you are getting noticed. Advertising can
be done in so many ways online. These are some of the
most successful ways that you can promote your online
business.

Advertising in e-zines is a popular way to promote
your online business. Ezines are the magazines of the
internet; they written on a particular subject and
read by those interested in that subject. Therefore,
ezine readers are already potential customers and
advertising your site in ezines that are related to
your business is almost guaranteed to help drive
traffic to your site and increase sales for your
product. You should be sure when advertising in
ezines that you are not advertising along side
competitors. Ask the ezine producer if there is a
policy concerning posting competing ads. It is also
a good idea to subscribe to the ezine before making a
decision about whether or not to advertise in it. An
ezine that runs fewer ads is a better choice than one
that runs many ads. You can look at the online
Directory of Ezines to find publications that are
relevant to your company.

Pay-per-click programs are an excellent way to
advertise your business without taking a risk that you
have advertised in the wrong place. With
pay-per-click, you can advertise you site and only
pay for those who click the link and go to your site.
Another popular pay-per program is the pay-per-lead
program that allows you to only pay for leads.
Usually this means that you pay for only those who
download a trail, fill out a form or enter a
sweepstakes; whatever you choose. Lastly you can
display pay-per-click banner ads in which your company
would be allowed to place a banner on their site and
you will be charged for every click that your banner
receives.

Opt-In email is a great way to advertise your
business, however it is expensive and it can be
misused very easily. Using opt-in emails, you would
submit your sales copy to the company that will in
turn email it to those on their mailing list. You
should be very careful since some of the companies
that advertise their mailing lists as opt-in email
service is sometimes really SPAM. It is essential
that you have a perfect and effective sales letter
when using opt-in mailing lists. Without and
effective sales copy your money and time have been
wasted.
