How To Market Business Online | free world message

The internet is the fastest growing market in the world. There are over 2.4 million internet users in Ireland.?

With only 4.1 million people, that's over the half the population in your geographic area who could potential be reached through Internet Marketing. Just because you have a store front business doesn't mean you can afford to ignore this vast marketing potential. It is estimated more people use the internet to look for goods and services than use the phone book now. The web is going to continue to grow as a resource, particularly since internet capable phones are becoming more and more popular. A local business may rely on local customers. However, with the explosion of online products and services more and more people are turning to the internet to look for products and services. All of the major search engines include a business locator option. This means users can use the search engine to find all the business in their area which might sell the goods or services they are looking for. Then, with the click of a button they can see if that business is in their area and even locate the business on a map (with directions to it).

This service by the search engines has nothing to do with your website and everything to do with how your site is utilising Internet Marketing techniques. If the search engines do not know your business exists, they can't very well point customers to your location. Another aspect to Internet Marketing or SEO is how well you are placed on the search engines, how high your site is listed when people are searching for business of a similar sort. If your website does not place well with the various search engines, potential customers will be looking at other businesses first.?

Make sure your website is properly marketed and optimised to rank high on the major search engines. It isn't enough to just have a website. You have to market your website on the internet effectively. Using effective Internet Marketing can help even local business attract new customers. But in order to be effective you need to be savvy about how the internet works and how to get the best results from the major search engine searches. Internet users are potential customers, but only if your marketing to them.

Its a website that allows others to advertise thier local business, online business, how to manage, budget, and make money online, with most of the online business to make money from are free? Please give me successful ideas, ones that have worked for people you know or yourself.
    • ANSWER:
      Online businesses need quality on-topic content that acts as a magnet to draw qualified prospects. In addition, you need to spread the word online by providing quality expert information on user conversation sites (e.g. Y! Answers) that include links back to your site if your site offers services that may benefit the people you're responding to.
      Be sure you are 'pinging' the search engines so they know to come crawl your site.
      If you have a newsworthy announcement you should consider the opportunities available by using online press releases. There are free places to do this but it's reported that the value available from the company I work at (PRWeb) is worth the spend (starts at ).
  2. QUESTION:
    How should I market my small business online?
    My husband and I just started a small retail business and are interested in marketing it online. Any suggestions as to the best way to start?
    • ANSWER:
      As an online store, you need to focus on two things:
      - get TARGETED traffic interested in what you sell (avoid traffic exchanges, traffic swarm and those poor quality traffic)
      - CONVERT those visitors into buyers
      You can use pay per click advertising in the search engines to reach audiences looking for your products. You can use Google Adwords http://www.google.com/adwords or Yahoo http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com
      Here are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible:
      1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement - if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.
      2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important -- and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more - that's additional traffic that you get for FREE!
      Recommend Site Scripts (various) http://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
      Big Nose Bird Recommend this Site http://bignosebird.com/carchive/birdcast.shtml
      CGI Resource Index http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
      Hostscripts http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Site_Recommendation/index.html
      3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.
      If you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com's "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm
      4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as 0 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News.

      5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.
      Here is a comprehensive list of where to submit your articles http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=AhzreGmnCUicOoyedqypscUjzKIX?qid=1006022407481
      6. Improve your conversion. Getting visitors is one thing; getting them to buy your products is a whole different story. Read the article " How To Sell More on the Web: 30 Tips To Increase Conversion Rates For An Ecommerce Site " http://www.powerhomebiz.com/092006/ecommerce.htm for tips on how to improve your conversion rates.
      7. Post a link to your site for free where it is allowed (always read the Terms of Use). Examples are:
      Craigslist http://www.craigslist.com
      Google Base http://base.google.com
      Classifieds for Free http://www.classifiedsforfree.com/...
      Text Link Exchange http://www.txtswap.com/

  6. QUESTION:
    What is the best way to market your business online?
    I am working with a team to optimize me on google maps and I am going to be on yellowbook but I want to make sure I am spending my money wisely. And I don't understand fully how to optimize my web page either. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
    • ANSWER:
      The most effective way to advertise on the Internet is
      to first set up a website and publish its domain name
      on major search directories such as Google.com,
      Yahoo.com [at http://www.google.com/addurl/?...... and
      MSN.com since 85% of Internet shoppers rely on these
      search directories to provide them with goods and
      services. In a sense, these search directories are a
      very large Internet Yellow Pages.
      Nevertheless, should your website or opening webpage
      fail to contain "generic" keywords, then anyone using
      such "generic" queries will not be able to discover
      your website. Your domain name [URL] of your website,
      in a sense, will be invisible, undiscoverable.
      You may want to consider some simple algorithms which,
      when observed and committed in designing of a website
      with placement of various critical metatags that can
      surely achieve a high search engine presence and
      increase Internet traffic to your website. These
      metatag strategies work well with published webpages
      at Google and Yahoo.
      Design: Should you create an extensive Flash-based
      website, make sure to fill-in the property entries
      such as the Title, Description and Keywords. Failing
      to do so, leaves no hard HTML or ALT resource that can
      be readily indexed by search robots. Also consider the
      Internet audience and their incoming setup. For
      example, if they are on analog/dialup, Flash webpages
      take too long to load up and therefore analog users
      will likely lose interest and discontinue entering the
      Flash site. On the other hand, anyone on hi-speed DSL
      lines, will welcome Flash pages which load quickly. So
      before designing a pure Flash websitge, ask the simple
      question, "Who's my end user - is he on dialup or
      DSL?" And if you had to choose between these two users
      for maximum marketability, then select analog users
      since 80% of most resident users are still analog
      Internet subscribers and pure HTML designed webpages
      is best for them.
      A non-Flash-based website which relies on hard text,
      is far easier to be indexed by search robots. Limit
      the use of stylized text saved as .gifs since as a
      graphic, they are not indexable by search robots.
      Avoid use of frames since any number of search robots
      are unable to properly classify textual material.
      Placement of Metatags:
      A ranking or search order does take place with Google
      and Yahoo and it begins with the "Title" metag which
      should consist of no more than 65 characters separated
      by commas. The "Title" should describe in generic
      terms, the goods and services, followed by a location
      from which the resource is located, i.e., city, state.
      The placement of a domain name which is not generic
      within the "Title" is not appropriate, unless your
      domain name is a major recognizable brand name.
      The second metatag is the "Description" which is
      usually 25-30 words to form a complete sentence which
      best describes one's goods and services.
      And the very last category - "Keywords" are also
      somewhat limited to 15-16 words which can be plural
      and compound in nature. Again, avoid multiple entries
      which could be mistaken as "spamdexed entries" which
      is defined as the loading, and submission of
      repetitive words into a particular metatag category.
      "Spamdexing" when discovered on a webpage and reported
      to Google's spamreport.com can result in the
      elimination of your website from their search
      directory.
      Good luck!

  8. QUESTION:
    Is there a way to market my business online, other than posting free ads?
    A lot of the free classifieds places to post, put my ad on the last page of their site, because it's not a premium (paid) ad. Are there places for people who are just starting a business, to advertise, without having to pay? just a note, i am pretty much computer illiterate......i have only had my computer sence December '06, and only know how to do a very limited amount of things with it. Also, it is a second hand one from family....the hard drive is so loaded, i am unable to down load anything, and all the filters and such on here, won't let me open much of the attachments to e-mails.
    What i do for a living, is share information on how to live longer healthier lives, by getting the toxins out of our homes. Also, i used to have 13 perscriptions on my desk, that i had to take 2 times a day. With the wellness product vitamins, and supplements, i am down to 7, and am working with my doctor, to wean myself off perscription meds. and use company products. My allergies, and asthma are undercontrol now that the toxic cleaning products, and bath/shower products are out of my home. Sence i have had such excellent results with the products that i purchase, i decided to make this my business. It is a consumer direct company, meaning that there is no inventory to buy and sell, no collecting money, no paperwork at the end of the month.........none of the headache of a home business....i just need help to find the best places to market my business. Just starting, i don't have a huge advertising budget, but still i want to share this with as many others a i can.
    • ANSWER:
      You may want to consider a link partnership.
      If you can think of someone that your clients would be interested in getting information on , you would provide a link to their site in return they would provide a link to your site.
      Also, you may need to change or add what is called meta tags. You can get information on this on-line for free.
      The following site my be useful: http://www.submitexpress.com/metatag.html
      The more traffic you have to your site will move you up in the listings. However, many search sites reserve the top 10 listings for paying customers. Paying for this service rarely is worth the cost.
      You may want to offer something Free, it will drive traffic to your site and increase you listing. It does not have to be a material object. Advise or information for example.
      Best of luck.

  12. QUESTION:
    How can I market my small business online?
    I have just started a small business and I would like to know how I can spread my marketing onto the internet. I learned that it would cost me a lot of money to do this. How can I go about this?
    • ANSWER:
      1. Get started with an effective website.
      2. Search target audience online and their favorite communities: For example blogs, forums, social networks etc. Participate on these platforms.
      3. Post blogs, write articles and press releases.
      4. List your website in relevant directories.
  13. QUESTION:
    Are there any free resources where I can I learn how to market my small business online?
    I am interested in learning how to implement various internet marketing strategies to help grow my business but have a limited budget and not enough time to sift through all the junk to find what really works. Does anyone now of a website that has comprehensive quality content and that doesn't cost an arm and a leg?
    • ANSWER:
      It just so happens that I found a website catering specifically to the marketing needs of small business owners like ourselves. Having spent countless hours researching online for educational resources and internet marketing techniques that I could implement myself, I was delighted to have stumbled upon this website.
      I was reluctant to watch the video that you have to watch before signing up, but I am very glad I did. I believe that they have an agreement with other internet marketing experts to host their content. So basically, it is a hub of all kinds of programs and courses, very well organized and easy to navigate, that you would normally have to pay for individually.
      Also, I was hesitant about the monthly membership fee, but because of their affiliate program, I am already making more money every month in residual commissions than what the membership fee is. To tell you the truth, I am more excited about the commissions I am making then actually implementing the strategies I am learning for my business. I ran some numbers and I figure I can make far more money in commissions than I can in my current business.
      Actually, now that I think about it, they also teach a way to hire a five person full time marketing team comprised of foreign employees that you hire, manage, and pay via the internet for a fraction of what it would cost you normally. They have access to the membership site so that they can learn and implement the strategies. And with the residual commissions that you can make, even this becomes free.
      So, by referring people to the site, you can not only have five full time employees dedicated to marketing your small business on the internet, but you can actually make much more money than what your salaries and membership costs are.

    Got creative ideas on how to market an online business?

    Would love some more ideas!
    • ANSWER:
      One really good way is to advertise on the rear window of your vehicle. I did that for my decal business a while back and I got more than 30 visits the first day just for driving around my neighborhood. It's probably the easiest too since you don't have to worry about paying for advertisements to be posted. To add to that, also making your website address simple & easy to remember will ensure you that more people will visit your site after they see it posted on your vehicle.

    Semi-retired Man Looking to Start a small Online Business?
    Semi-Retired man looking for a small online marketing business to supplement current income would like help and advice to how this can be actioned please.
    • ANSWER:
      Well its a rather open ended question but I'll give it a go. If you wish to start a small online business you need to have a few things in place first.
      1. An understanding of how marketing online works, its a very different set of rules compared to offline marketing. Though both share a common goal and many similar techniques an online marketer has to take into consideration a few more factors i.e. search engines, keywords....
      2. What do you plan to 'market' - Information products are a great way to earn money, especially if you already have 'more knowledge' than your target customers, and there are in fact customers to target.
      3.Don't buy into some ones 'business in a bow' style systems until you know what you are doing. To often people see a pre-made business and think the work is done for them. The truth is without the right knowledge on what to do with said business you will get nothing in return.
      4.Affiliate Marketing is a great way to get started as this removes the requirement to create a sell able product. This doesn't mean its easier it just has one less step to learn.
      Don;t spend any money on this until you have a clear idea of your plans. Knowledge is key to making a online business work (same with any business really). To many people (myself included) started out the wrong way and waisted time effort and money on systems far beyond there ability at the time.

    How to start an online dating site, or a profitable online business and be successful?
    I'm interested in starting an online business that works. I would consider a dating site, casino site, or other websites that work. I would like to know how I can get stated. I have lots of online experiance. I have looked at many different companies that provide online dating, and casino sites built and read to run. How legit are they, and are their claims for success accurate? They average in price from 9-,000. I don't have a lot of money especially to throw away in a scam. What are my best options. I've done ebay, and a few of the online marketing scams that don't work. I'm billingual, English and Spanish, have a two year general degree working on my B.a in business management. I'm receptive to working with other people on a new idea that we can market online, have a few ideas myself just don't know how to get started, can someone lead me in the right direction?
    • ANSWER:
      Starting an online business is not at all a great deal!!! However making it profitable is the real challenge for any online marketer.If you want to make money online, that's great, but you need a system. You need to follow the strategies which are aleready tried n tested & are used by the champions who could make their fortune on the internet. Don't re-invent the wheel - don't make the mistake of wasting time and money in developing a product.Because you know nothing (I believe so) at the moment about internet marketing. So you must work with someone who can prove their system - be cautious and careful. You need to crawl first before you can walk or run - the best way to learn is to become an Affiliate Marketer. The main advantage with affiliate marketing is that -suppose the product you are promoting is not selling well due to some reason, you can drop that product & chose something else to sell.In short as an affiliate you are essentially a free-lance marketer - not bound by long-term contracts having a freedom to review / revise / remould your plans as per the demand in the market . (To see the changing demand in the market have a look at these http://buzzyahoo.notlong.com &
      http://buzz-google.notlong.com )
      There are lots of people out there there -- people just like you -- who are enjoying the financial freedom that comes with successful affiliate marketing.

      Small Business Marketing Strategy: Target the up-and-coming search engines
      While Google still rules the roost when it comes to Internet search engines, and Yahoo is firmly entrenched in second spot, a number of new start-ups are hoping to give them a run for their money. And a good small business marketing strategy would be to check them out and see how you can make them work for your site!

      Wikia : A "community-based" search engine
      ChaCha : A "social networking-based" search engine
      Snap : A search engine that offers visual previews
      It's a smart small business marketing strategy to continue optimizing for the Google, Yahoo, and MSN search engines as they are by far and away the most popular -- but niche search engines could provide new opportunities to reach your market. Be sure to check them out!

      Good timing? I've extensively read everything about promoting my online store. I'll try to sum it up for you.
      1) do not waste money on buying books "internet advertising. (go to the library)
      2) If you decide to advertise a "banner ad" Be sure to use the "Pay per click" method. (usually around a dime for each customer who gets directed to your store.)
      3) if money is no object I'd have either Yahoo, or Google create an attractive ad campaign for your company. (big bucks very expensive)

    How do I advertise my business online?
    I'm a small business owner and don't have thousands of dollars a month for SEO or online marketing. What is the best way to advertise my business online without breaking the bank? Is there a service or company that can help me with local business listings?
    Thanks
    Reid
    • ANSWER:
      Google Local Business Listing is very easy to do.
      If you can run your business, you can do a business listing, most of the details required are business name, contact information, website address and a 200 character description. Include some of you product or service keywords in the description.
      When you submit, you will be asked to verify the listing information, with choice of telephone call or by post.
      Telephone call is the fastest.
      When the telephone call comes through, there will be an automated message with a 5 digit PIN number. You enter this into the box on the Google Local business centre, then click verify.
      NOTE: You will need to register for a googlemail account then submit your website / business details to Google's local business centre.

      Additional Marketing for your Website using Directories and Website Links
      The next step is to get links to your website. This is one of the most important things that you can do to help your website with regard to internet marketing and search engine results. To do this you will need to list your website on as many websites and directories as possible.
      Directories
      Paid Listing Directory: for a listing fee your website is listed, often these are higher quality directories as only serious website owners and business's will pay to be listed. These are usually the fastest way to get listed and get links to your website, as the paid listing directories are run as a business. There are niche/specialist and general directories.
      Free Directories: it can take a long time to get your website listed. As the service is free, there may be little or no control of the quality of websites being listed. DMOZ is the most important free directory, it can take quite some time to get listed, but worth the effort, follow submission guidelines very carefully.
      http://www.dmoz.org
      Show Me Another: this is a new 'Search Directory' that allows registered users to submit websites and in return for contributing you get a link to your own website for every website submitted. Its a free service and websites are added instantly.

    The best answer will be compensated well if you contact me at surbhi1979@yahoo.com
    • ANSWER:
      You need to start with the two most basic things:
      1. A website. You can hire a firm to do this for you but it will be expensive (4 figures). Or you can find a self-service where you can build one on your own. For example, Yahoo Sitebuilder (yes I know this is Yahoo Answers but Sitebuilder is the one I've used in the past). Also, Wordpress might work. Search for "website design", I just did and came up with hundreds of companies that could help you. If you decide to hire a company, make sure to get multiple bids and compare them. Tell them you probably want an HTML rather than a Flash site.
      2. Search engine marketers. Search engine results are the lowest hanging fruit for generating leads and interest in your company/product. Search online for "SEM firms" or Search Engine Marketing.
      My credentials: almost a decade of online marketing.

  36. QUESTION:
    Where can I find tips for online marketing strategies?
    Books, magazines, websites or any other source that can help me learn how to effectively market my business online.
    • ANSWER:
      The most effective way to advertise on the Internet is to first set up a website and publish its domain name on major search directories such as Google.com, Yahoo.com [at http://www.google.com/addurl/?... and MSN.com since 85% of Internet shoppers rely on these search directories to provide them with goods and services. In a sense, these search directories are a very large Internet Yellow Pages.
      Nevertheless, should your website or opening webpage fail to contain "generic" keywords, then anyone using such "generic" queries will not be able to discover your website. Your domain name [URL] of your website, in a sense, will be invisible, undiscoverable.
      You may want to consider some simple algorithms which, when observed and committed in designing of a website with placement of various critical metatags that can surely achieve a high search engine presence and increase Internet traffic to your website. These metatag strategies work well with published webpages at Google and Yahoo.
      Design: Should you create an extensive Flash-based website, make sure to fill-in the property entries such as the Title, Description and Keywords. Failing to do so, leaves no hard HTML or ALT resource that can be readily indexed by search robots. Also consider the Internet audience and their incoming setup. For example, if they are on analog/dialup, Flash webpages take too long to load up and therefore analog users will likely lose interest and discontinue entering the Flash site. On the other hand, anyone on hi-speed DSL lines, will welcome Flash pages which load quickly. So before designing a pure Flash websitge, ask the simple question, "Who's my end user - is he on dialup or DSL?" And if you had to choose between these two users for maximum marketability, then select analog users since 80% of most resident users are still analog Internet subscribers and pure HTML designed webpages is best for them.
      A non-Flash-based website which relies on hard text, is far easier to be indexed by search robots. Limit the use of stylized text saved as .gifs since as a graphic, they are not indexable by search robots.
      Avoid use of frames since any number of search robots are unable to properly classify textual material.
      Placement of Metatags:
      A ranking or search order does take place with Google and Yahoo and it begins with the "Title" metag which should consist of no more than 65 characters separated by commas. The "Title" should describe in generic terms, the goods and services, followed by a location from which the resource is located, i.e., city, state. The placement of a domain name which is not generic within the "Title" is not appropriate, unless your domain name is a major recognizable brand name.
      The second metatag is the "Description" which is usually 25-30 words to form a complete sentence which best describes one's goods and services.
      And the very last category - "Keywords" are also somewhat limited to 15-16 words which can be plural and compound in nature. Again, avoid multiple entries which could be mistaken as "spamdexed entries" which is defined as the loading, and submission of repetitive words into a particular metatag category. "Spamdexing" when discovered on a webpage and reported to Google's spamreport.com can result in the elimination of your website from their search directory.
      Here's an example of a very highly-placed website on Yahoo.com: Begin with the search query "pizza downtown los angeles." It will bring up some 1.4 million+ websites as results. Check out where "Pizza Next Door" is ranked. It's in the Top Five! Again, Pizza Next Door's high web presence was achieved by proper web design and placement of relevant metatags according to Yahoo's publication guidelines.
      Good luck!

      If that looks too complicated still, you can always just design each page by hand and link them together. This isn't difficult, just spend a little bit of time learning HTML at http://w3schools.com/html/default.asp it would also be good to style your HTML using CSS http://w3schools.com/css/default.asp This is simpler than a CMS, but it is also more difficult to maintain.
      If this still seems difficult, you can look into some of the applications designed to generate webpages, I haven't looked at these in a really long time, but try, http://tryit.adobe.com/us/cs4/dreamweaver/ These kinds will be the most brittle, though, because you can't style them, and you can't manually fix any screwups they make when generating the code.
