Most people draw a blank when it comes to Internet Marketing.

These bullet points are just a few of the possibilities available with Online Marketing. Each point has enough information to write a whole book on the subject.

To start understanding the power of Internet Marketing you have to get away from several old notions and stereotypes about online marketing. One of those notions is your Main Website. Most people and companies have their home page and that's all they have. It is the symbol of corporate identity and their #1 form of communication online, or so they think. In reality most people will only visit your website when they are looking for you and only you. In rare cases will they find you if they are looking for your competition or the products and services you provide. Most companies, unless someone searches for them under their exact name or website, will never be found.

The reality is that even if someone looks for your products and services they will not find you. If you are lucky and good, a small portion will find you. The first step that you need to take to have a larger presence online is to create more Web Pages. Simple, right? Yes, actually. The problem is most people don't realize this simple fact. Now, how powerful is this idea? Well, imagine that you have 5 buildings or offices around your city, state, or country. Now imagine you have 10, 20, or 30 offices. How many more customers would you attract because you have more offices, more real-estate, more presence? It is the same concept online. The more websites you have the more business you will generate.
