Internet marketing doesn’t have to be expensive. Affordable Internet advertising is possible and a crucial aspect for your business in today’s digital world. Reputable internet marketing companies can develop a plan to provide you with affordable internet marketing strategies. These strategies will increase online visibility, attract potential customers, and ultimately boost sales, affordably.

Here are some effective marketing services that are $500 per month or less.

  • Local Directory Listings: If you have a local business with a brick-and-mortar store, optimizing your Google Business Profile and other local directories will help you organically. If your NAP is inconsistent, why would the search engines want to show you? 

  • Organic Social Media: Create engaging content on social media platforms to build brand awareness and drive traffic to your website. Interacting with the people who follow you and love your brand can create brand ambassadors. Brand ambassadors can discuss your brand in other conversations, providing free marketing.  Basically, brand ambassadors will bring up your brand in areas where you may not be shown organically or with paid ads. Brand ambassadors and organic social media can be an amazing asset. 

  • Paid Social Media Advertising: Through targeted advertising on social media platforms, internet advertising firms can help you promote your products or services to a wider and potentially different audience.  This is done due to audiences being categorized differently.  Instead of keywords, we can target people who like certain brands or activities.  Basically, with social media we can target things a person has told the platform they are interested in. 

  • Blog Posts: Create valuable information that is both interesting and curated to attract potential customers and establish yourself as an industry expert. 

  • Infographics and Videos: Conveying information in video or graphic form to inform, engage and increase sharing on social media. Videos can quickly capture someone’s attention. Well produced infographics are highly shareable on social media platforms. 

  • Email Marketing: Build an email list and send regular newsletters or promotional emails to nurture leads and drive sales. 

  • Pay-Per-Click (PPC) Advertising: Run paid targeted ad campaigns on search engines like Google and Bing, and Social Media Platforms like Pinterest, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.  This allows you to reach potential customers who are actively searching for products or services by appropriate keywords, with actual intent to purchase.
