Internet Advertising Strategies
Advertising is a broad concept; in this book, the authors have presented a precise look at its practical domains. Modern advertising has become low-cost with fast access to target users, transferring a persuasive concept to customers and getting a positive behavioral reaction. The last part of their definition is indicative of a new method of advertising, which goes a step further than other methods. A positive reaction embedded in an advertising function comes from advertisers’ use of new communicational practices to transfer and receive messages. The emergence and application of new technology necessitates using the appropriate tools. In this chapter, the authors first define these new tools (strategies). Then, they discuss the differences between online and traditional advertising strategies, and offer an integrated model of Internet advertising strategies. Finally, the authors introduce different kinds of appropriate Internet advertising strategies. The purpose of this chapter is to focus on online advertising strategies and provide a fundamental understanding of their relationship to marketing practices. They examine why firms must use online advertising strategies and give some examples of how online advertising strategies can help companies make sound marketing decisions.
