“Online Marketing” refers to a method of promoting products/services electronically, typically via the internet, using many aspects of the internet to promote businesses (i.e. email, social networks, etc.).
There are many different kinds of online marketing, such as:
– SEO (Search Engine Optimisation)
– SMM (Social Media Marketing; e.g. Facebook)
– PPC (Pay Per Click Advertising; e.g. Google AdWords)
– Content Marketing; e.g. Blog Posts
– Email Marketing
– Influencer Marketing (i.e. when social media influencers promote products).
Digital marketers are able to execute their marketing campaigns considerably faster than traditional marketers can execute traditional marketing campaigns; digital marketing companies can evaluate the effectiveness of their digital marketing campaign immediately upon launching the campaign, while traditional marketers must wait until after their advertisement is complete before determining if it was a successful advertisement.
