If you decide to make edits later, and you can't track down the original designer, you end up paying again to rebuild the files somewhere else as well as experience frustrating delays.]]> http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/managing-your-business/managing-your-business-get-keep-and-back-up-digital-files/feed/ 0 http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/internet-marketing-strategies/internet-marketing-strategy-overview/ http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/internet-marketing-strategies/internet-marketing-strategy-overview/#comments Fri, 30 Dec 2011 18:14:32 +0000 Chris Jaeger http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/?p=911 I have identified 17 different variables that make up a comprehensive Internet marketing strategy.

It also takes a fair amount of precision “know how.” Throwing just any words on your Facebook wall, or posting from time to time compared to a consistent effort, is not going to do anything for your business.]]> http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/social-media/social-media-is-not-free/feed/ 0 http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/save-money/savings-with-coupon-codes-from-go-daddy/ http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/save-money/savings-with-coupon-codes-from-go-daddy/#comments Mon, 26 Dec 2011 20:19:20 +0000 Chris Jaeger http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/?p=766 You can save even more money when you register or renew your domain registrations at Go Daddy by using coupon codes that are fairly easy to find online.

Put all the hype aside and the experts will tell you that social media marketing is all about engagement and content. Social media marketing works when you WORK it. ]]> http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/social-media/social-media-social-not-about-sales/feed/ 0 http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/social-media/social-media-no-magic-bullet/ http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/social-media/social-media-no-magic-bullet/#comments Mon, 19 Dec 2011 20:20:40 +0000 Chris Jaeger http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/social-media/social-media-no-magic-bullet/ Social media marketing, using Facebook, Twitter, Google+, FourSquare, Stumbleupon (and there is a very long list) isn’t a quick fix for anything. Social media marketing, except in very, VERY rare cases, does not deliver significant results quickly. It’s not a magic bullet, but social media can deliver a powerful ROI and compliment your other marketing efforts when done correctly and effectively long-term.]]> http://www.practicalonlinemarketing.com/social-media/social-media-no-magic-bullet/feed/ 0
