What is the meaning of Internet Marketing?
Internet Marketing sometimes leaves a bitter taste of scam and spam behind. Sadly enough; the term “Internet Marketing” has become associated with terms like “Internet Guru” and “Make Money Online“. But is that what Internet marketing means? No Way! In fact, everybody who has a website or blog that advertises a product or a service, is an an Internet Marketer in one way or an other. Some try to get rich over night with a special super, hyper cool idea – what usually ends up with them beiing poorer after a few month than when they started – others try to get traffic to their blogs and websites due to lists and hope to sell whatever affiliate stuff is available. And than there is the third kind, the companies who actually sell a product or offer a service on their website(s). Those are the Inernet Marketers i would like to talk about here.
Cooperative Internet Marketing
What’s that again? I probably invented that term… Let me start explain it on hand of two distinct projects I’m working on right now; one offers Accommodation on Koh Tao in Thailand, a small island in the southern Gulf of Siam, the second one offers scuba diving lessons in Puerto Rico, that would be in the Caribbean. They both target overall the same people. People who are searching for vacations or travel destinations. They both also target a specific group out of the people visiting their websites. East Puerto Rico Divers needs people who are interested in scuba diving and they also plan to offer accommodation on their website. OK View Resort in Koh Tao, on the opposite of the world is located in the scuba diving paradise of Thailand, and besides their accommodation, also wants to offers scuba diving lessons on their website.
Now what could be better than hooking those two sites up with links and a review about the other website and location. I gurantee; Google will love it! Both sites will gain better search engine positions and will eventually increase their business. And most important, they will never loose a customer to one another but send traffic to each others website. If you are looking for partner websites for your business, think about cooperative Internet marketing. Look for partners on the other end of the world who offer similar products or services, but also look for partners who offer your products and services in a secondary line on their sites. It may take a while longer to find the right Internet Marketing Partners, but one well selected partner with a good page rank makes up for a hundred crappy back links. The search term “ok view” brings up 504 million results, guess what is on 1 & 2 at Google….
In today’s internet you can not succeed alone anymore! The times are over where a bit of SEO and a half green webmaster could give your business the boost it needs. Search engines are much more sophisticated today and semantic search is the term of the future. If your website is not bringing in any money and you have a real business to advertise, leave me a message in the comment box below and i will have a look. Maybe i can come up with a suggestion or two, because that’s what i do. No e-bay sites and other xxl duplicated – so called – Internet Marketing Sites please, only real products and services.

Nice post, internet website marketing is really important for business people seeking to expand their brand awareness. I think with SEO and conversion marketing, businesses can evolve and help the economy as well.
Hey! I have been so inspired by what you write that I felt compelled to contact you today and talk in person. There are limits to what blogging allows and sometimes face-to-face or phone conversations fill in those gaps. The reality is that blogging is the way that we are introduced to each other and connected in a way never before possible. It IS an exciting time to be an educator!
I’m sure there are not many businesses out there anymore who can live another ten years without finally starting awebsite and do some serious intrnet marketing for their product and services. Even small businesses need internet marketing today!
