Internet marketing is not limited to a few strategies – there are a lot right now and a whole campaign could be a combination of several of these.
Right now, the most commonly applied online marketing strategy is Article
SEOor Article Search Engine Optimization. A business or brands goal in this is to get the maximum amount of good
backlinks to the site being marketed via article. It works this way, at the end of each article, there is a hyperlink directed back to the brand or business site. For the most part, its the number of successful
backlinks that determines a sites rank in Google, but of course there are some other factors as well.

The popularity of the page hosting the free articles as well as the uniqueness in relation to plagiarism. To make sure you posted on a reliable page, check it out first and make sure there were other postings before you.

The good thing about a social media campaign is the most people who go online have their own social media account.
One more popular internet marketing method is banner marketing. Much like traditional banner campaigns, online banner ads include your company logo, with a tagline and marketing message to viewers. Banner ads appear in different web pages and the virtual space it consumes is what the brand owners pay for.
Another form of marketing that makes use of hyperlinks is text link advertising. Much different from article marketing, text link marketing does not depend on articles, but on various web spaces scattered all over.
Other forms of internet marketing are pop up and pop down advertising, pay per click marketing, email marketing, and video advertising. The costs vary depending on what you want to achieve and how much work is needed to achieve your marketing goals. The digital age is very competitive and if you get left behind, things can move fast for your competition and very slow for you.
