Default RE:

Many people do not understand internet marketing and what it is.

Many people look at the internet as their marketing hero it just isn't. People call themselves internet marketers in the year 1890 nobody said I am a newspaper marketer LOL

The internet is a distribution channel what is most important is your message.

When you say "what are the benefits", do you mean as a home based business method?

"Internet marketing" is not really an industry unto itself. Instead, it is actually just a method of marketing your business. Many people call it that as though it is a business all by itself. No more than newspaper classified ads are a "business" is internet marketing a business.

That being said, there are online businesses that are phenomenal. It's all about where you place your focus. Do you have what it takes to work the long hours to get things going? It is not a get rich quick thing, for sure. But, the payoffs of working online are huge.

Personally speaking, I have been able to bring myself and my husband home from jobs through working online. We also homeschool 3 kids while running our various online businesses. So, yes, the benefits are wonderful if you are willing to learn and work.

Much Success!

The basic advantage of internet marketing is that you may deliver your message fast. Moreover, it costs you very less by saving your transportation and other charges.

As others have said, I wouldn't make internet marketing my only marketing channel, but its certainly a great one. One of the biggest benefits? Think of the billions of people that use the internet everyday, you have a great reach on the internet.

Lower costs - you don't have to pay for the overhead of an office etc. You can essentially adverstise with next to nothing just by using hosting, wordpress, and social media sites.

You can promote digital products which cost very little to create and you have an infinite supply, as opposed to physical products.

  • work your own hours from home
  • IM efforts are slow to get started but really snowball and then grow exponentially so that small, consistent investments in article writing (or blogging) pay off in time
  • passive income -- one you get it going, you can take time off and still earn

You can reach many more people over the internet than any other medium - but it is still important to target your marketing to the right people

Effective internet marketing helps people reach your business when they search for related terms, not just the name of your company. Its is become an increasingly popular way tomarket a website and selling products or services within a particular locality.
