Marketing, buffet style

If you are new to Internet Marketing, it is easy to become overwhelmed with all the different marketing techniques available to you. I posted this article on my site which gives a basic rundown. Here’s an excerpt:

When it comes to marketing your business online, you have many different choices.  It’s kind of like one of those buffet style restaurants.  While it is great to have so many options, it can also be confusing and overwhelming. 

One of the most obvious ways to advertise your business online is to buy ad space on someone else’s website.  Some sites offer advertising space for a certain price per week, month, or year.  Some offer text ads, others allow graphics, and some offer both.  If you can find a website that complements your services or products, this type of advertising can be effective.  But don’t stop here, as there are other methods of marketing online that could give you more bang for your buck….

It’s certainly no secret that people who do business over the Internet are probably more comfortable marketing their business online. If this sounds like you, try not to limit your marketing to strictly online stuff. You could be missing out on lots of local clients. Who knows?
