In this section we will discuss various online business promotion tools.

SEO (Search engine optimization) Services

There are more than 110 million websites resident on the World Wide Web, and by the time you finish reading this, this number would have increased exponentially. This coupled with 824 million web users, the need to be prominently visible on the Internet gets compounded. This is where SEO comes into play.

Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume and quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via "natural" ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results for targeted keywords. The earlier a site is presented in the search results or the higher it "ranks", the more searchers will visit that site.

The simplicity and economy of e-mail marketing campaigns are their biggest strengths.

Social Media Optimization

Methods of SMO include adding RSS feeds, adding a "Digg This" button, blogging and incorporating third party community functionalities like Flickr photo slides and galleries or YouTube videos.
