Online AD Tracking ' An Ongoing Process
Without tracking, your online advertising is just a shot in the dark. Many new and seasoned marketing individuals spend significant dollars on Pay-per-click (PPC) banner advertisements, ezline ads, and other online media but do not know which ads have brought them the greatest success. You know that you should be tracking all of your online ad buys, but are you? Do you understand your numbers and what you should do with them? Are you refining your email and online marketing efforts accordingly' It is important to track all of your online advertisement, even if your ad provider is showing you your results. You need to employ your own tracking to double-check. Types of online marketing avenues that you should be monitoring: Site links Statistics that you should be concerned with: Open-rate - Particularily important in email marketing. This statisitic will tell you how many people opened your email marketing message. This number should be used as a estimate to measure trends and not an absolute number. Many variables can effect the accuracy of this count. For example, an open rate cannot be used in a text message, so if your message is being displayed and opened in text, the count will not increment. As well this count will be incremented if Outlook clients are displaying the preview pane. If a client shows the message in a preview pane and then clicks to open, you will get a count of two. Click-through - A count of how many people clicked on a particular link in an email or on a text or banner link on a website. Ensure that your tracking software or service shows both clicks and unique clicks. The number you should be most concerned with is unique clicks. You do not want to be billed for someone who clicks on a particular ad 30 times in one minute. Sales or actions count - Most tracking systems offer the ability to place code on your sales confirmation page and tie this to a tracking link. This count will tell you which online ad resulted in a sale. Sale details - Some tracking systems allow you to add specific details about the sale to the tracking result. This usually requires you to be able to add code to the server side code of your website. How do I get these statistics' You will need to employee a speciallized tracking link for all of your email marketing and online marketing efforts. Many advertising options will provide you with these statistics, as well PPC engines like Overture and Google will provide you with click counts. It is important as well, to employ your own tracking to get the results from advertising that does not provide you with stats, as well as double-checking the results from those that do. There are two main types of tracking systems. One, a service that is web-based that allows you to manage your tracking without the need for servers, or software downloads. Two, software that you would need to employ and manage on your server. Service options - Software options - What your statistics tell you: . Which ad copy had the most clicks and lead to the largest number of actions or sales' . How many people opened your email messages. Should you resend' . Who opened your email message. Should you resend to those that did not, or send a follow-up to those that did. . What faired better, banners or text links' . Did you PPC advertising count and bill match your tracking results' . Did your online ad result in a positive Return on Investment' Gathering statistics is just a start. Now that you have this data you will be able to make decisions and refinements to your email and online marketing. Take this information and change your marketing accordingly and you will find that you often can save hundreds if not thousands of dollars monthly.

Usually they're in a cold sweat: The Fun and Ease of Online Shopping vs. The Brick and Mortar Option When my sister and discussed our shopping plans this year we found to our surprise that our attitudes were much different. She was the hip New Yorker, living in a trendy section of Brooklyn and commuting in to her publishing job in Manhattan. I'm a down home Midwestern type of girl who prefers to drive everywhere and I love my suburb. We were chatting together on my mother's couch after we had stuffed ourselves with cake from our parent's anniversary party, and when we got onto the topic of shopping (my favorite pastime), my sister gave me quite a shock. While I was dreading the upcoming birthdays and Christmas, but my sister had a very positive outlook. She was looking forward to the experience, and I was flabbergasted.As it turned out, she was a devote of shopping online, and so she was looking forward to surfing around, researching options and deals, and getting all her shopping done early. I argued with her, saying that the personalization of actually finding a gift by oneself in person was something that couldn't be duplicated by a machine. Also, many of the really great items I would like to get were not the kind of items that were technologically oriented, and what little vendors would have their stores online'The debate got pretty heated, and soon we decided to bet on it. We bet each other a new iPod player (pretty technologically oriented there, but I figured that I could sort it out once I won) that the other person would have much better shopping runs if each of us used the other's techniques. I was positive that if she could discover how nice it was to go into the brick and mortar shops, she'd forget all about online shopping ' and I definitely knew that I would like shopping online. Since we were basically buying gifts for the same people, we'd have a fair contest. We'd be fair in our evaluations, as well, and insist on telling each other how we'd done. Each of us would rate the shopping system on ease, quality, price, and getting gifts that was appropriate and appreciated by the recipients. Here's our results:For our brother's present, I hopped onto the internet and typed in bird watching into the search engine. After searching through a couple options, to my surprise I quickly found a birding book that was specific to our state, plus a CD of bird calls. The site not only offered free shipping, but would wrap the package and mail it to the my brother. "Well", I thought. "That was easy ' but I knew books and CDs were easy to get via the internet. How about something tough'"I thought I'd cheat a little bit by trying to find something that could only be bought locally. That failure would take my sister's idea out the utility of online shopping and blow it completely out of the water. For this specialized task I picked one of my favorite foods ' the organic, wild blueberry pancake syrup sold in our local farmer's market. While it's always a pain to wake up early on Saturday mornings to drive all the way down to the market, it's worth it to get this locally-made, yet exotic product. Unfortunately for me, it was easy to find. I entered the phrase Blueberry Syrup into Froogle and it was the first product sold there. I had no idea they sold this stuff on the internet! The new franchising and marketing opportunities have enabled the local growers to market and ship their product all over the states.One last shot ' I'd look for something for my sister, to get something so personal and unique that you'd definitely have to go there to get it. It was an item that we had seen on a friend's wall, and for years now my sister had wanted one of her own. As it turns out, Thai elephant painting (the elephants grab paintbrushes with their trunks and then paint a canvas) is now online, and yes, they will take custom orders. I hadn't really been willing to fly to Thailand to get a painting, anyway, but I certainly hadn't thought that would have been online.I called up my sister in defeat. After two hours online, I had bought all my major presents. Sis answered her cell phone and said that she was still stuck in rush-hour traffic on the way to the store. A New Way to Profit From Your Content-Based Website "It's a labor of love." That's how I've always described my content-based website. Until the last year or so, what I meant is that my website paid me in love more frequently than it paid in money. And if visitor compliments and good karma paid the mortgage, that would have been fine. Create Your Own Online Marketing TV Station It will happen! TV and the Internet will eventually merge into one giant multi-media "melting pot" that includes everything from live footage and old reruns to garage videos posted by your next door neighbor's kid. Just like cable TV fractured network TV, the Internet will enable everyone with a voice, a video camera, and something to say to fracture cable TV even more. But the real TV revolution on the Internet will only happen when marketers stop trying to copy TV, with its commercials and outdated modes of revenue generation, and start copying the "pay-per-view" and "infomercial" models.
