Having a presence online is essential for any business these days. With far more people looking online than using the Yellow Pages, your business is at a serious disadvantage if it isn't online.

The best known and most common online presence is a basic website. However, depending on one's business, one may need a number of other online marketing tools as well.

Here are some online marketing strategies and tools to consider:

• website
• blog
• social media
• search engine optimization
• autoresponders
• list building
• using video and audio online
• online sales letters
• online shops
• writing effective content
• website checkup
• and more

Just so you know, I don't buy into the idea that you should use all of these, or all the latest bells and whistles just because you can. Only use what you need to do the job that needs doing. That's where it helps to have a good picture of your business and where you want to go with that.

If you don't already have a website, or wonder if your present website is doing the job it should be doing for you, consider contacting Willowrose Webdesign for an initial discussion about your online needs.
