Web marketing, what's the best method?

[Jollymoon284]

Social media and the web has been proven to be a great marketing resource to get participating users, customers and website members. Large businesses use the social media platform by communicating with its customers, prior to simply pushing ad messages to target audiences. The social media influence on the internet makes communication an important and valuable asset. However, it requires a large budget and there are a limited amount of previous research available.

Is there a good web marketing method which actually works? And is sort of cheap?

It is possible to send pre-defined bulk messages to Twitter users, with the intent to promote a company, service or a product, without being treated as spam.

If the tweets sent out include an understanding and knowledge behind Twitter lingo, culture, context and trust, it is possible to get a positive response rate.

I would recommend using http://webcompanion.net

If you dont have a big budget to do social marketing, you should start out prewriting marketing messages yourself and then scheduling and updating them via networks like hootsuite.com and socialoomph.com

I highly recommend you to look into HootSuite Univeristy - they have a free 101 course and you will be amazed how much you can get done on your own - and then later even outsource things to certified social media manager.

You are absolutely correct in all that you say about Social media marketing. Many seo experts claim that you can make a lot of money from it but there's no proof. Many have created software that spams links on networks and make it look like you have a huge following, in much the same way that you can spam blog posts and article marketing.

Google penguin has effectively put a stop to this behavior by penalizing website that participate in paid link building services. If would take a phenomenal amount of social links to change the rank of your website. However, google likes to see a variety of marketing methods linking to your website, over time and with varying anchor text.

There is no one web marketing solution that works best. To get traffic, natural traffic google loves to see, and be rewarded with even more traffic by search engines, you have to start with the basics. Your website and your website marketing plan are the key to internet marketing.

Once you fully understand what google is looking for in order to send you hordes of traffic, and you play by their rules you can dominate your niche when it comes to generating traffic. You will find that it's not the number of social media links you have pointing to your website, or any other type of links. It's about the quality of the content on your website, and the quality of the related links to your website. In some cases, less is best, unless they came naturally.

You are not just web marketing, you are building an internet business. You need a website marketing plan that shows you how to dominate your niche. A total analysis of your website concept, keyword strategy, monetization plan and marketing strategy may surprise you.

Take a thorough look at the Internet Marketing Business Plan. It speaks to every aspect of web marketing.
