The inexpensive nature and mass appeal and accessibility of the internet have revolutionized sales of everything from intellectual property and services along with products and real estate. Marketing on the World Wide Web is simple, effective, and with a little research, much cheaper than traditional telemarketing, mail, print or broadcast media advertising.

It is impossible to gauge exactly how much business and sales are conducted over the internet but it's safe to say the figure is in the multiple billions of dollars. Internet sales are becoming safer thanks to better encryption techniques and more popular due to widespread internet marketing and special promotions. In 2005, at least one major credit card company reported that nearly half a billion dollars worth of sales are transacted daily over the internet in the days leading up to Christmas.

The flip side to the increased opportunities for successful internet marketing is that a lot of individuals and companies have already set up shop online or are clamouring to do so. With so much competition, how can you organize your marketing campaign to stand out from the masses? Here are some tips and tricks to ensure you get the best results from your online internet marketing efforts:

Advertise! Take advantage of banner ads, pay-per-click services and paid search-engine ads that will be given priority display space whenever someone makes a related search engine query. Free advertising or promotion may also be available through special-interest sites. Promote yourself (or your business, product, ebook, etc.) on a well-designed website with easy-to-use features like instant pay and instant download options. Keep your content fresh and talk to a search engine optimization expert to maximize your search engine ranking and exposure. Consider a variety of links and RSS feeds to further your SEO goals. Track your website traffic and how many hits turn into sales to determine whether your site is effectively drawing in customers. Email prospective clients. Email can be used to reach the masses so investigate the possibility of buying a prepared, product-relative mailing list. Craft a well-written initial sales letter introducing your product and one or two follow-up correspondence pieces. Let buyers know how your product can help them fulfill a specific need. They don't care how wonderful you think your product is; they want to know how it will help them. Find out more about your customers. You can best meet your customers' needs if you know what they are and how you can help. Ask clients how they determine their needs, how they choose a solution and what affects their choice of product or service provider and make adjustments accordingly. Consider partnering with complementary, non-competing providers to enhance the service you provide to your clients and theirs, widening both of your customer bases. Combine internet marketing with traditional marketing techniques where applicable. It doesn't have to be a one or the other choice.

Be creative when marketing over the internet. Just because something hasn't been done before doesn't mean it's not a good idea - in fact, the opposite is likely true because doing something new or different when it comes to online promotion will make your internet marketing and sales efforts stand out.
