albeit, a little more complicated than the normal promotional
activities undertaken. No doubt, there are hundreds of ways
to do this.The challenges include presenting to a global audience,
servicing more and more geographical areas and increased investment
on web services, marketing techniques and back end logistics
to service global customers.
To begin with the following steps are necessary to make a
head-way: Listing: Getting listed on various business directories
and associated databases is the first and foremost step in
promoting a web business. Most listings are given away for
free. These listings or directories are the first place when
people look for products and services like electricians, designers
etc. Contacts: Word-of-mouth promotion can get a lot of business
while starting out on a web promotion spree. Making personal
connections and asking friends and relatives to buy from the
site can get a lot of direct goodwill and increase traffic
to the web site.
In the long term, these personal contacts will keep you in
good stead building local business and goodwill. Website:

design and colors. Good and easy navigation is a must with
easy to use shopping carts. Try and use one or two good testimonials
to give the website a professional and disciplined look. Keep
information on a need to know basis, product or service wise.
Advertise: Initially advertising on relevant sites would bring
in good traffic.
You can use banner or pay per click advertising to achieve
this. Parallel to this, the process of search engine optimization

click or banner advertising, the traffic does not stop but
