How many hype-filled emails have you received by someone who recently joined a network marketing company and in only a few weeks had over 1000 members in their downline?

What Makes a Website Grow?
It appears that most webmasters have come from the world of advertising. Their website content emphasizes "marketing and promotion". Just to prove my point, do a Google search on "marketing promotion". As I write, Google comes up with "about 5,910,000" entries. Gosh imagine the good fortune of a listing on page one! Of course, the number of entries for "marketing promotion" gets shadowed by "sex" which provides you with "about 192,000,000". It's not money and sex; it's sex and money.

What Exactly is Internet Marketing?
The internet, like every other field, has a language all its own. And when it comes to marketing on the internet, the labels proliferate rapidly. Can you tell "search engine marketing" from "search engine optimization?" How about "website promotion" from "online promotion?"

Why You Cannot Afford to Be An Anti-Social Internet Marketer
Anti-social internet marketing is a critical flaw that will destroy even the best, most creative sales strategies. If you do not build relationships and follow up on them --through personal interaction and automation -- you will spend most of your time either a) repeating trivial tasks that can either be completed exponentially faster with the help of other people or b) plodding away on a course that will never result in sales conversions.

To understand this, you have to empathize with your readers, with the website visitors.

Turn Readers Into Buyers

Website Marketing for Today’s Small Business Owner
Search engine optimization. It's the key to getting traffic on your website, and where every excellent website marketing strategy begins. According to studies performed by Nielson, by January 2004, one in three consumers were turning to search engines for their online shopping, with the most popular search engines being Google, Yahoo, and MSN. If your small business doesn't have a high search engine placement, even the consumers who are specifically looking for the product or service that you offer won't be able to find you. Your website won't get the traffic, and you won't make the sale.
