Gone are the days when people preferred and used newspaper, radio and television as the mode of marketing for businesses and products. Internet is the latest thing in the marketing world. More and more businesses are choosing internet marketing as the preferred mode of marketing for their products and services.

Internet marketing can be used as one – to – one marketing strategy so the ads tend to be personalized and increases the possibility of turning viewers and recipients of the advertisement to buyer of the products and services. Internet marketing is a cheaper and more effective way of marketing and it’s a guaranteed method of advertisement.

There are many types of internet marketing. These include search engine optimization, search engine marketing, social media marketing, display advertisement, email marketing, content marketing, etc.

Various Types of Digital Marketing

SEO (Search Engine Optimization)

Search engine optimization is the technique in which if your product or services is of the same genre of what a person is searching on the internet on any search engine then your product will be shown there along with the other search results.

SEM (Search Engine Marketing)

Search engine marketing is another type of internet marketing in which no matter what a person searches on any search engine, your products’ advertisement is shown along with the search results.

The main difference between search engine optimization and search engine marketing is that in search engine optimization, your products’ snippet is shown in organic way only when the person searches for something of the same genre or something about the product and it appears below the paid part of Google or other search engines. It is long lasting and gives better return on investment .

    For SMM specifically in facebook marketing, joining group is more important. Organically product promotion will be effective if a particular product is promoted to a specific group where users have a demand for that particular product.
