CindyInternational Web Marketing Mix
Internet marketing has become fairly sophisticated with regards to Search Engine Optimization. The search engines have become so sophisticated and change so rapidly that internet businesses are deciding not to invest heavily in SEO.
Internet businesses are coming back to marketing to people, their internet readers. Good internet marketing has more to do today with creating meaningful relationships with readers than ever before.
Are you marketing to the right cultural target?
Internet businesses market to their cultural audiences. The dilemma is that you cannot really contain your website to one location. If your website is in English for example, your readers will come from all sorts of countries.
Multicultural marketing takes into account the wide cultural audience your product has.
A small business wanting to get more international clients might opt for a website in English written specifically for a wide multicultural readership.
This will be always be at least slightly different than a website specifically targeting an all American audience, or an all British audience, or an all Australian audience.
Some businesses have developed a very culturally specific brand. These culturally targeted brands would probably lose their competitive advantage if they adapted their website for a multicultural audience.
But what about all of the other businesses out there? Internet marketing is a great tool for international business expansion.
An initial international expansion phase of combining internet marketing and multicultural marketing would give small businesses feedback on their international business development potential.
The interesting thing about internet marketing is, your real international market potential can surprise you. You can uncover market segments and cultural markets you had not thought of.
