Online Advertising And Promotion Modern Technologies For Marketing

"This book educates readers on how to meet online advertising and Internet marketing challenges for both present and future tactics"--Provided by publisher.

Those of us who work with or study online advertising are often asked by other marketers, "What makes online advertising special?" After all, it seems reasonable to expect that advertising online should be like advertising in any other medium. For decades, marketers and advertisers have amassed an array of strategies, tactics and principles that, it is claimed, can be applied to any particular advertising campaign. In today's technological world, the challenge is to apply that knowledge to the discipline of online advertising, the assumption being that there is no need to claim any special status for a specific marketing effort such as sports, electronics or clothing. During the past decade, Graduate and undergraduate courses in online advertising have also appeared in university curriculum, and giant institutes such as the Interactive Advertising Bureau, IAB.net and Emarketer.com have been established to support leads. Plus, the American Academy of Advertising has a special-interest group on online advertising. With the weight of all this activity, I believe online advertising is not a subset of traditional advertising; it is its own perfect discipline of study. There is a special place where customers gather each day, seeking services and products: the Internet.
