Internet Marketing News, Tips and Tricks Around the Web Vol. 2

By Rodney Brooks, on November 17th, 2009

In my last post I started something I thought would be pretty useful to my fellow Internet marketers and so far, I’ve gotten nothing but positive reviews.

Got a little caught up in things that had to be taken care of on the home front (I’m sure you know how that goes) but we’re still here.

Ran into a couple of things that may interest you, so here we go.

There’s an excellent post gaining ground over at ProBlogger that covers a subject many Internet marketers have started to neglect, what with the advent of social media marketing and all, many people believe email marketing is either dead or on it’s way out.

Well, Abby Johnson from WebProNews recently covered a variety of topics including why email marketing is not dead – internet marketing for smart people – the new FTC regulations and touched on a new project she’s working on with Brian Clark and Chris Brogan.

You can check this very informative video over out at ProBlogger.com

In another interesting post, Eric Qualman, shared some interesting perspectives and helpful tips from his recently published book Socialnomics: How social media transforms the way we live and do business

The post reveals a simple four step plan for small businesses looking to get started with social media marketing and can be found at Socialnomics – Social Media Blog

Highly recommended. Excellent content.

Finally, I’d like to recommend an educational post I stumbled upon from the IdeaLaunch blog.

Did you know that font plays a huge part in your audience’s web content experience?

Your choice can both leave a gut impression (professional vs. amateur, polished vs. ragtag) and affect the effectiveness of your piece (readability, easy for scanning, cuts down on scrolling) – both of which can impact conversion rates (a.k.a. the amount of people who are willing to pay for your services or products).

Here are some quick tips to help you decide the best font for your website.

Hope this info helps and don’t forget to come back often as I’ll be updating these posts with more regularity from now on.
