INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Digital marketing is marketing that makes use of electronic devices such as personal
computers, smartphones, cell phones and game consoles to engage with stakeholders. Digital
marketing applies technologies or platforms such as websites, e-mail, apps and social
networks.

the Indian marketplace. The company offers a plethora of services in all online media
platforms. The offerings include marketing and consulting on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn,

Through this study we will see how online media companies emerging how they are
generating revenue and how they are growing economically and revenue generation models
of online media companies particularly reference to Mwell software solutions.
Main findings of this internship are given here. Indian customers are highly
information seekers. They collect more information about a product before buying it. Internet
penetration in India is key player for this phenomenon.
This report is completely discussing about digital or new media agencies. There was a
time when Television was the most popular medium for Marketer to promote, spread
awareness and generate leads for their products but now the trend has changed, and Digital
media has taken its place. Main reason for this change was
➢ Traditional methods are expensive. Compared to digital marketing channels, you
could end up spending lakhs of rupees more.
➢ Traditional marketing channels fail to provide instant feedback and reports about who
saw or heard an advertisement and took action. This data is collected long after the
initial advertisement impression is made and still then, the statistics are far from exact
numbers.
➢ Digital marketing, on the other hand, refers to marketing methods that allow
organizations to see how a campaign is performing in real-time, such as what is being
viewed, how often, how long, as well as other statistics such as sales conversions.
The digital landscape is moving at a lightning fast pace. Every industry has been
affected by the advances in digital. Digital marketing is an essential part of this for
companies who want to utilise the power of the internet in order to boost business. The
tremendous scope of Internet Marketing in India, we have to understand that marketing
through the internet can be an entirely different ball game. In fact it is a potent combination
of technology and marketing acumen.
Digital Marketing like traditional form of marketing is a highly result driven and set
objective practice. One can’t begin a digital marketing campaign without setting the
campaign objectives. A digital marketer understands the needs of the clients and visualizes
their needs to deliver what they want.
so, as a marketing management student it's very essential to research on such an
important marketing tool and study on its impact on revenue generation will help you to
know about how marketing agencies performing.

digital marketing process and most of information is collected from project guide in the

entire study.

broachers & records. Secondary data for the study were collected from the magazines,
websites & other previous studies. To meet the objectives, the study used qualitative
research. The descriptive study was done through review of existing literature that helped in
validation and extraction of the important variables and factors. Data was collected from
secondary sources. Secondary sources were magazines, websites, books, office executives,
and company data.

CHAPTER 2
THEORATICAL BACKGROUND
Meaning:
Digital Marketing is a collective name for marketing activity carried out online, as
opposed to traditional marketing through print media, live promotions, tv and radio
advertisement.
The rapid growth of Digital Marketing Industry is a direct consequence of the global
phenomenon that is the Internet, and effectiveness of Digital Marketing channels in
generating revenue and awareness. Compared to traditional methods of advertising, Digital
Marketing offers rather realistic costs, particularly important for small- and medium-size
businesses and start-ups, accurate targeting and excellent reporting.
marketing allows you to target your demographics and use your marketing dollars to
promote your product to the people you know are interested in what you have to sell.
A push marketing campaign can be more expensive when it comes to upfront costs,
so you really need to be sure that your marketing is going to reach the right people at the
right time. Behaviour targeting is good example for push digital marketing.
In Pull digital marketing includes blogging, email marketing, social media, info
graphics and other forms of visual messaging and search engine optimization (SEO). A pull
marketing campaign also includes public relations or other ways of reaching out to potential
or already realized customers who you want to keep engaged.
to hire someone to manage your social media and respond to people who leave comments
or ask questions. Social media gets people talking and that has a major impact on sales.
Pull marketing also requires a greater investment in time, but it gives you more
ability to entertain your customers and educate them about your company. But don't get
confused by seeing Email in push and pull, there is a difference. If marketer is sending
emails with customized content or banners to specific group of customers is push digital
marketing. If marketer is sending emails with the same content or banner to all customers is
pull digital marketing.
Reach:
The ability of the online medium to target a certain demographic of users is one of
the greatest advantages of digital advertising. In addition, the geographical reach of the
online medium is far greater than that of traditional media. It’s not only cost effective to
achieve a wider geographic area, but the ads can also be targeted to the desired audience.
For example, if an advertiser is keen on selling his or her products targeted to a certain
demographic of people, it is quite possible through online advertising. Digital advertising
has matured to the extent that web publishers, media agencies and advertisers themselves
know the optimal ways and websites for a certain category of products or services.
Measurement:
With various tools becoming available, tracking effectiveness of ad campaigns is
becoming possible today. In other words, measuring Return of Investment is increasingly
possible today. Organizations that were previously reluctant to spend online, now realize
that the online medium does offer means to alleviate any such fears. Moreover, when
properly designed online marketing campaigns generate the desired results, advertisers are
further encouraged to continue advertising online.
Time:
Through the Internet, an advertiser can reach a desired target group or demographic
in a much shorter time frame. For example, if an advertiser needs to plan some sort of
ambush marketing, the online medium can be an effective means of achieving it. Even
otherwise i.e., for regular marketing campaigns, the total time necessary to complete an
online advertising campaign is less than that of traditional advertising methods.
Cost:
When compared to traditional forms of advertising, digital advertising is cheaper.
Various payment models are available between the advertisers and publishers. Many a time,
advertisers are charged only when visitors click on their ads. The various payment models
are discussed in detail in the next section.
Directory submission
It is a part of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) off page work. Directory
Submissions is a process of submitting your Website URL to theme related Directory like if
your site is Health Related you should Submit your site URL to Health related directories
sites for getting Back link from them.
1.Automated Directory Submission: In this way of submission many software and tools
are used to submit directories it will save time and with the help of automated huge amount
of submission done in short time.
2.Manually Directory Submission: It is done by manually and it will take lots of time to
do directory submissions.
Then Confirmation Message will Display for your Submission and you will received a
confirmation mail you must confirm it by clicking that link some sties send confirmation
mail some doesn’t send it.
Social bookmarking:
Essentially, a social bookmark is a link that people post to social websites for others
to see because they find it interesting, valuable or cool. In a way, social bookmarks are just
like the bookmarks you already have on your private computer. The difference between the
two is that social bookmarks are saved to the web where they can be easily shared while
private bookmarks are saved to your own browser. The idea behind social bookmarking is
simple: post links on popular social bookmarking websites to increase your own traffic and
gain an ongoing stream of new readers and customers. Content that are openly shared with
other Internet users literally have unlimited growth potential. For example, one link can
quickly multiply and reach the desktops across the world if one user passes it on to others,
and those users in turn do the same, and so on. Online marketing has gravitated away from
true-and-tried ad and affiliate marketing toward the rapidly growing world of global social
networking. Social bookmarking is a great traffic-boosting search engine optimization
(SEO) strategy because it’s easy, effective, and trendy.
There are four categories of methods and metrics used to optimize websites through search
engine marketing.
1. Keyword research and analysis involves three steps ensuring the site can be indexed in the
search engines, finding the most relevant and popular keywords for the site and its products,
and using those keywords on the site in a way that will generate and convert traffic. A
follow-on effect of keyword analysis and research is the search perception impact. Search
perception impact describes the identified impact of a brand's search results on consumer
perception, including title and Meta tags, site indexing, and keyword focus. As online
searching is often the first step for potential consumers/customers, the search perception
impact shapes the brand impression for each individual.
2. Website saturation and popularity, or how much presence a website has on search engines,
can be analyzed through the number of pages of the site that are indexed on search engines
and how many backlinks the site has. It requires pages to contain keywords people are
looking for and ensure that they rank high enough in searchengine rankings. Most search
engines include some formof link
Popularity in their ranking algorithms. The following are major tools measuring various
aspects of saturation and link popularity: Link Popularity, Top 10 Google Analysis, and
Market leap’s Link Popularity and Search Engine Saturation.
In contrast to the generalized portal, which seeks to drive a high volume of traffic to
one site, PPC implements the so-called affiliate model, which provides purchase
opportunities wherever people may be surfing. It does this by offering financial incentives (in
the form of a percentage of revenue) to affiliated partner sites. The affiliates provide
purchase-point click-through to the merchant. It is a pay-for-performance model: If an
affiliate does not generate sales, it represents no cost to the merchant. Variations include
banner exchange, pay-per-click, and revenue sharing programs.
There are two primary models for determining pay-per-click: flat-rate and bid-based. In both
cases, the advertiser must consider the potential value of a click from a given source. This
value is based on the type of individual the advertiser is expecting to receive as a visitor to
his or her website, and what the advertiser can gain from that visit, usually revenue, both in
the short term as well as in the long term. As with other forms of advertising targeting is key,
and factors that often play into PPC campaigns include the target's interest often defined by a
search term they have entered into a search engine, or the content of a page that they are
browsing, intent, location, and the day and time that they are browsing.
Flat-rate PPC:
In the flat-rate model, the advertiser and publisher agree upon a fixed amount that will
be paid for each click. In many cases the publisher has a rate card that lists the pay-per-click
(PPC) within different areas of their website or network. These various amounts are often
related to the content on pages, with content that generally attracts more valuable visitors
having a higher PPC than content that attracts less valuable visitors. However, in many cases
advertisers can negotiate lower rates, especially when committing to a long-term or high-
value contract. The flat-rate model is particularly common to comparison shopping engines,
which typically publish rate cards.However, these rates are sometimes minimal, and
advertisers can pay more for greater visibility. These sites are usually neatly
compartmentalized into product or service categories, allowing a high degree of targeting by
advertisers. In many cases, the entire core content of these sites is paid ads.
Bid-Based PPC:
With the bid-based PPC model, the advertiser is allowed to bid, to compete against
similar advertisers in a private auction. Each of the bidding advertisers lets the publisher
know the maximum amount they are willing to pay for a given ad spot or keyword. The
winning advertisers then pay for each click on their advertisement, based on the amount they
bid. The common practice amongst bid-based PPC websites such as Google Ad Words, is to
charge a small amount more than the next highest bidder. As you can see, Payper Click can
be a massively effective means of directing targeted traffic to your website, and is relatively
inexpensive. While there is the risk of click fraud, most of the major Pay Per Click providers
such as Google or Yahoo, have employed several automated systems to prevent abusive
clicks by corrupt web developers or competitors out to cost you additional money. If used
properly, you can find new customers with ease using Pay per Click. It might also be
beneficial to find a reputable pay per click company to assist you with your campaigns.
Social media marketing is the process of gaining website traffic or attention through
social media sites. Social media marketing programs usually center on efforts to create
content that attracts attention and encourages readers to share it across their social networks.
The resulting electronic word of mouth refers to any statement consumers share via the
Internet (e.g., web sites, social networks, instant messages, news feeds) about an event,
product, service, brand or company. When the underlying message spreads from user to user
and presumably resonates because it appears to come from a trusted, third-party source, as
opposed to the brand or company itself, this form of marketing results in earned media rather
than paid media.
Engagement
In the context of the social web, engagement means that customers and stakeholders
are participants rather than viewers. Social media in business allows anyone and everyone to
express and share an opinion or an idea somewhere along the business’s path to market. Each
participating customer becomes part of the marketing department, as other customers read
their comments or reviews. The engagement process is then fundamental to successful social
media marketing.
Facebook Marketing
Facebook is the world's mostpopular social network for both businesses and
individuals. With over one billion users, your friends and fans are likely already using the
platform and you should be too. In fact, people are 51% more likely to make a purchase
after "liking" a brand on Facebook. Face book marketing requires a good intellects and
unique thinking to make the campaign effective.
In face book marketing in fact in visual /web marketing your content speaks a loud that is
why make sure your content should be relevant to your audience and business.
Facebook also allows users to 'tag' photos to indicate if a Face book friend appears in them.
This function can be used to promote your business. For example, a tour operator could post
a photo on their page of a group going white-water rafting, then invite each participant to tag
their image in the photo. Each tagged image will show up as an update on the participant's
Facebook account, where their friends will see it too. This increases the level of interest in
the picture, and your business.
If you do decide to use tagging, be careful. It can be a privacy issue, and some Facebook
users are sensitive about being tagged in photographs. For this reason, it is better to ask
participants to do the tagging, rather than doing it on their behalf. Talk to existing and
potential customers.
You can use Facebook to 'talk' to existing and potential customers by posting and receiving
messages. But don't use Facebook to aggressively promote your products or services. You'll
have much greater success if you share information related to your business that is actually
useful or interesting to other users.
TWITTER MARKETING
Twitter’s flexible, real-time platform allows you to get creative and drive results at the
same time. Whether you’re looking to drive sales, increase brand awareness or launch a
product. Twitter marketing is not much popular than face book but still it has an impact on
audience
The very first thing in twitter marketing you need to understand and learn the twitter
terminologies well.
Hashtag
A hashtag is any word beginning with the # sign. People use hashtags to organize
conversations around a specific topic. Clicking on a hashtag takes you to search results for
that term.
Pinterest:
It is a visual discovery social network. It is a way of sharing images of anything, from
fashion to pets to pot plants. You can create your own online pinboards to suits any theme
and share it with likeminded people.
Pinterest completely revolves around the premise of being creative and visual. 70% users are
female and aged between 25 and 44. So if you are targeting women pinterest is the right
platform. Pinterest is now one of the top 10 social networking sites tracked by Hit wise.
INSTAGRAM:
Instagram, the new revolutionary photo-sharing program, making it easier than ever to
share your best pictures with the world. The social media program allow you to upload, add
digital filters, and then post your pictures on your Instagram-feed, as well as other social
networking sites. You can connect your Instagram account with Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr,
Flickr,Foursquare and your email account. This makes it easy to share your pictures on
multiple platforms all at once.
When it comes to brands and businesses, Instagram goal is to help companies to reach their
respective audiences through captivating imagery in a rich, visual environment. Moreover,
Instagram provides a platform where user and company can communicate publicly and
directly, making itself an ideal platform for companies to connect with their current and
potential customers.
GOOGLE +:
Google has described Google+ as a "social layer" that enhances many of its online
properties, and that it is not simply a social networking website, but also an authorship tool
that associates web-content directly with its owner/author. It is the second-largest social
networking site in the world after Facebook. 540 million monthly active users are part of the
Identity service site, by interacting socially with Google+'s enhanced properties, like Gmail,
+1 button, and YouTube comments.In October 2013, Google counted 540 million active
users who used at least one Google+ service, of which 300 million users are active in "the
stream".
With most marketers comfortable with using Facebook for their primary social media
marketing tactics they quite often don’t see the other opportunities. Here are some
compelling reasons to register and start using a Google+ page to complement your Facebook
page, your social media and digital marketing activities.
Google+ hangouts
Google+ hangouts have been an important part of the Google+ platform since day one.
They allow you to create online meetings that are limited to 10 active users but it allows you
to stream YouTube video to an unlimited number of viewers. Hangouts provide a way to
engage with small groups of customers that you may want to share important information
and/or educate.
No update filtering
Google doesn’t need to make money from Google+ as its major revenue (over $30
billion) is from its Google ad words and search advertising. It doesn’t need to force you to
pay to be visible on Google+. Facebook has increasingly applied its Edge rank technology
that filters the updates that are seen by people that have liked your brand’s “Facebook page”.
Some research shows it at less than 15% and shrinking. This is so they can force you to
spend to advertise on Facebook to get attention. It has become “pay to play” Google plus
does not filter (censor) your updates to followers that are following your page.
No ads
Point two leads to another advantage. There are no annoying advertisements on Google
plus. No distractions and no one wanting to sell you weight loss or dating services.
Social signals
Google wanted to enhance its search engine capabilities by having humans vote on
what content they liked. (That is the Google+ button). This is now built into Google’s search
algorithms to ensure that Google remains relevant on the web. This makes certain that your
content is receiving votes (social signals) when you are participating on Google+.
YOU TUBE:
YouTube is a video Social Networking site, and the 2nd most popular search site on
the Internet after Google, who owns YouTube. YouTube video watching is a significant
activity on the Internet, with over 1 billion visits to YouTube daily and over 100 million
videos watched daily. And it's easy for anyone who sees your video to rate it and share it
with his Social Network.
If you are planning to host your videos on your own video hosting server or thinking about
getting licence from a video platform then you have to take in account, this extra burden of
dollars on your wallet. Though Google don’t promote commercial video sharing but has now
made an amendment in the terms and conditions for sharing original contents of brands. It is
one time investment and you would be happy to upload your content on YouTube as you are
still saving the additional design and functional costs. Hence, if you compare the current cost
for licences of video platform YouTube brand channel is a smart bet.
Standard size
IAB has also created a universal standard for display ad sizes Page text. There are four
dimensions that have been decided as universal and are respectively:
• Banner 728 x 90
• Rectangle 336 x 280
• Skyscraper 160 x 600
• Square 250 x 250
CHAPTER 3
COMPANY PROFILE
The growth in digital marketing trends in India is making a very substantial impact on
marketing and advertisement.
The big picture of the Digital Marketing industry in India cannot be complete if a short
preview of the past digital marketing statistics is not made.
Going back to history, the International Journal of Advanced Research Foundation reveals
the following stats on digital marketing in India
In 2023, the digital marketing industry in India report statistics revealed that
advertising via mobile phones and tablets was 200% lower than in the following years.
During this year, the net worth was $2 billion.
The growth was geometric, as it rose to $6 billion in 2020. In 2022 Indian advertising
market reached $11 billion and is expected to rise more and reach $14 billion by 2024.
The competitive growth demands more improvement in career work, and professionals are
being added to the field.
The total investment increase from 2020 to 2022 was 1.5 billion dollars over the
preceding years. There has been impressive growth up till this present moment.
The digital marketing in India PPT report by the International Journal of Advanced Research
Foundation revealed that India had seen a golden period in the Internet sector between 2012
to 2022.
With incredible growth opportunities and secular growth adoption for E-Commerce,
Internet Advertising, Social Media, Search, Online Content, and Services relating to digital
marketing.
Today, the digital marketing industry in India is growing at its peak and is still
continuous. Many factors are responsible for this growth. The use of communication tools
has dramatically changed in the year past—no one ever thought to have a credible deal
online.
The above digital marketing in India report indicates the digital marketing statistics.
The belief was that online information is virtual information full of lies.
No one could listen to any online advertisement, not talk about purchasing groceries,
furniture, or clothes. The story has changed.
Everything from marketing to sales can be done online. This is due to the trust restored to
online communication in India.
This has helped the marketing initiatives. The revolution is from the communication
industries.
The low cost of the handset is now available, making it possible for India to have
about 692 million internet users at present, and expected to rise to 900 million by 2025.
This ultimately creates a fascinating business opportunity to sell to a growing population.
Moreover, the development of digital marketing in India is evident in the marketing shift
from anonymity to identity. Interaction on the Internet now looks more physical as opposed
to the anonymity of identity in the past.
The following survey from people indicates the size of the Digital Marketing industry in
India:
• 34% of the companies already had an integrated digital marketing strategy in 2016
• 72% of marketers believed that the traditional marketing model was no longer
sufficient, which would increase the company’s revenue by 30% by the end of 2017.
In 2017, 80% of businesses increased their digital marketing budget, which may surpass the
IT budget.
Only the illiterates could not access the potential of digital marketing because of the
accessibility to computing devices and computer education.
In a survey of 1000 marketers, 52% reported that their budget would increase, and the
remaining 48% think the budget will be the same in 2023.
Many people in this category still don’t trust the online payment method, and they lack
training in English and other foreign languages to market online in global markets.
In India, digital marketing is overgrowing, with the Indian digital marketing industry in
2025 expected to be worth $160 billion, suggests a Goldman Sachs report.
The current scenario is fascinating. A growing number of businesses and entrepreneurs are
recognizing the potential of digital marketing and using it to grow their businesses.
The number of digital marketing agencies in India is also increasing as more businesses seek
expert help to create and execute effective digital marketing campaigns.
By 2023, the number of dynamic Indian web clients will be around 666 million. As a result
of lockdowns in India’s online business industry, Global Data predicts that the market will
reach 7 trillion rupees by 2023.
Through the COVID crisis, marketers and advertisers on digital platforms have seen an
increase in investment.
Today, even the world’s largest companies are rethinking their marketing budgets to focus
more on digital.
The Indian e-commerce market is projected to reach Rs 7 trillion by 2023 due to the
pandemic and multiple lockdowns, which suggests that digital marketing is booming.
This growth not only positively impacts businesses but also improves people’s lives.

operating in highly competitive markets and franchisees may initiate frequent marketing
campaigns and devote significant resources to generating brand awareness and sales.
ERP applications tend to be modular in nature, sharing vital business information which is
held on a central database repository, or repositories

depends largely on one thing - Search Engine Optimisation (SEO). Without effective SEO

you spend on your site is as good as wasted. To get to the very top you need professional
SEO services of the highest calibre, and that’s where we come in.

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA
media management platforms to manage their clients data and digital campaigns. These
agencies view their role as strategists that can analyse and interpret data to provide actionable
results and achieve their clients’ goals.Agencies that develop and offer proprietary tools view
their platforms as a competitive advantage over third-party toolsets that are widely available.
The plethora of digital channels has left many advertisers drowning in data. By providing
technology platforms that are built and customized to client needs, these agencies believe
they are providing unique and critical automation tools that collect, analyse, and optimize
data for their clients.
RESEARCH PROBLEMS
If a business is thriving, it’s growing. Its revenue is increasing by leaps and bounds.
Company employees are happy, and the owner is excited. It feels good to be in charge of a
growing business. The role of digital marketing is absolutely essential for business growth in
today’s day and age. Are you taking advantage of the Internet and advertising your business
through online strategies. The world of digital marketing might seem confusing, so let us
break it down for you. According to HubSpot, digital marketing refers to any marketing
effort that involves the Internet or an electronic device. If marketing exists online, it’s
classified as digital marketing. Digital Marketing has been rising in popularity over the last
several years. And there’s a simple reason why: the world is online. Technology Review
gives us the stats in 2000, the average American spent about 9.4 hours online. Today, most
people spend 24 hours a week on the Internet, most of the time using their smartphones.
Internet usage is growing, and as a business owner, you’ve got to take advantage of this.
Know where the role of digital marketing stands in your business or you’ll be left behind.
If you have a small business or a start-up, you probably don’t have much money, time, or
manpower to invest into traditional marketing techniques. You don’t need a fancy building
with hundreds of people on staff. You just need a simple but solid digital marketing strategy.
Offline Marketing
Offline marketing is the process to create brand awareness and reach till target customer to
satisfy their needs and want. In many occurrences, individual adopt marketing mix stradegy
for their business promotion. The entire plan behind offline promotion is to obtain leads,
when there is no website for your business. There are many forms of offline marketing
strategies such as through print media as well as non print media. Offline marketing media
includes Television, Radio, Brochure, Flyers, Banners, Newspaper, Pamphlets, Posters.
Offline marketing tools offer varies benefit, Of course the first benefit is that with offline
marketing, a business doesn’t have to be dependent on an internet connection. If a web server
goes down and a website is no longer accessible, that’s valuable custom and discoverability
potentially lost. A smaller business may take a while to get back online during which vital
customer attention may have been spent elsewhere. With offline media there are no such
worries, it exists in the real world and cannot be taken off the grid. Another benefit may be
somewhat less tangible but no less important and that’s that digital marketing is seen by
many customers and clients to be throw away. People are so used to seeing advertisements,
pop ups, and marketing emails that they don’t even notice them anymore.
Online Marketing:
Online marketing is the process to catch the attension of potential customers for business
through particular banner, articles, video, images, flash animation etc. Marketing activities or
information are planned as an elegant tempt to the visitors in which particular website of
business wants to attract. This information is particularly placed on main page or front page
of website to reach till key audiences. It has many ways to be done possible to get traffic for
business through online marketing principles. Online Marketing is the practice of leveraging
web-based channels to spread a message about a company's brand, products, or services to its
potential customers. The purpose of online marketing is to get people to visit your website
and then convert those visitors into paying customers. That’s what online marketing is all
about. It has the same set of objectives like Establish and build brand recognition, Determine
Pricing and make offers, Run advertising campaigns, promotions, discounts and specials etc.
Online marketing media includes Website/Blog, Social Media Marketing, Email Marketing,
Search Engine Marketing, Content Marketing, Video Blogging, Online Classifieds.
Your website is the key to a successful digital marketing strategy because all other digital
marketing elements direct guests to your website, which should effectively convert guests.
Elements of website design that generate conversions are using best SEO practices and tools,
having a great user experience, and capitalising on the wealth of analytics websites offer. A
website without effective SEO will not organically appear in the top spots on a Search
Engine Results Page (SERP), and therefore won’t generate many clicks from Google, Bing,
and other search engines. These clicks are critical to your digital marketing efforts because
you need to drive as much traffic as possible to your site to generate direct sales. Even the
most beautiful website will be mostly ineffective without the proper use of SEO. Using
keywords that guests are likely to search for and optimising your site for search engines will
improve your SEO and push your website to the top of the organic listings. While Facebook
and Twitter offer limited analytics to track marketing campaigns and tweets, your website
has the ability to collect comprehensive information on who your guests are, how they find
your site, and what they view while on your site. This information is invaluable when trying
to understand and pinpoint your guests and can be used to market your resort to a targeted,
engaged population. Websites are able to capture much more
information about how guests engage with your website and brand than social media
analytics. Aside from data on your guests, website analytics have the power to track
marketing campaigns so you’ll quickly be able to determine how successful a campaign is by
using this Analytics. A sitemap is a structured representation of all pages of a website. Both
the site structure and the individual links between the pages can be listed. Two different
sitemap types can be distinguished, HTML sitemaps and XML sitemaps.
pages such as videos, pictures, and when they were published to provide potential visitors to
your site valuable content.
Google Analytics:
Google Analytics is a very important digital marketing tool. It allows you to measure the
results of individual campaigns in real-time, compare the data to previous periods, and so
much more. Google Analytics allows you to track many important metrics, covering all
aspects. You can monitor the effectiveness of your online marketing strategies, onsite
content, user experience, and device functionality. All these statistics show you what is
working well, and more importantly, what isn’t. Once you identify any issues your site may
have, you can create a solution. Google Analytics allows you the information needed to
improve your website, and make it the best it can be. Google Analytics is implemented with
page tags, in this case, called the Google Analytics Tracking Code, which is a snippet of
JavaScript code that the website owner adds to every page of the website.
AdWords:
Google AdWords is a marketplace where companies pay to have their website ranked right
with the top organic search results, based on keywords. The basic gist is, you select to
promote your brand based on keywords. A keyword is a word or phrase the user searches for,
who then sees your ad. Your ads will only show up for the keywords you pick. Google
counts the clicks on your ads and charges you for each click. They also count impressions,
which is simply the number that tells you how often your ad has already been shown when
the users searched for that keyword. If you divide clicks by impressions, you get the click-
through-rate or CTR. This is the percentage of users who land on your advertised page,
because they clicked on your ad Consider Google AdWords to be an auction house. You set a
budget and a bid. The bid sets how much you are willing to pay per click. If your maximum
bid is $2, Google will only show your ad to people, if other aren’t bidding more on average.
Google doesn’t just want to show people the ads by the highest bidder they could still be
horrible ads. They care about their users so much that they’d rather show them a more
relevant and better ad by someone who pays less. Ad Rank is a metric that Google uses to
determine the order in which paid search ads are displayed on the SERP.
AdSense:
Google AdSense is a popular way for websites to make money from advertisements, all the
way from part-time bloggers to some of the largest publishers on the web. AdWords
advertisers pay Google either by the click In turn, Google shares a percentage of that revenue
with the AdSense publishers. Google AdSense serves ads via plain text, as opposed to
graphical content that dominated the advertising scene when it was introduced in 2003.
Google decided to serve plain text in an effort to minimize the intrusiveness of
advertisements, to optimize the page loading speeds, and ultimately, to elicit a more
favourable marketing response from the site visitor. AdSense is a free, simple way to earn
money by displaying targeted ads next to your online content. With AdSense, you can show
relevant and engaging ads to your site visitors and even customize the look and feel of ads to
match your website. Google ad sense is a wonderful way for website owners and bloggers to
earn extra income from clicks that create traffic for Google. This is how Google ad sense
works. the Ad sense spiders will go through your website to see what all your pages are
about. They will then check their list of ads and put related ads next to each of your articles.
For Example, Someone reading an article on fashion accessories is much more likely to buy
fashion apparels than someone who is reading an article about automobiles. Google display
advertising reaches over 90% of internet users worldwide, with about a trillion impressions
served to over 1 billion users every month. To start implementing Google Ad sense and
display advertising is relatively easy but you need to understand about different types and
sizes of ads that will compliment your website and ad campaign.
Below Figure shows that marketers allocated 12.5% the biggest share of their digital
marketing budget to digital advertising. Still, marketers wrestle with digital advertising's
effectiveness. Advertising agencies, technology providers and brand advertisers are working
to address this concern by improving measurement standards and formats.Content creation
and management account for the second largest share of digital marketing budgets. This is
driven, in part, by the desire to populate the infinite appetites of inbound marketing channels.
Social networks, customer forums, and the blogosphere are examples that drive inbound
inquiries or actions. However, you need to create content that delivers the right message to
the right person at the right time, regardless of how the dialogue gets started. That means
content is equally needed to meet the demands of outbound marketing as well. The enormous
pressure to create, manage and distribute content for multiple marketing activities through
the right channels will only increase ascustomers use more digital channels for collaboration,
researching and acquisition of products and services.
Top priorities for increased budgets are commerce experiences, social and mobile marketing,
and content creation and management. See Digital Marketers Escalate Investments to
Support Commerce Experiences to learn why enhancing commerce experiences is a business
imperative.
41% of Marketers Say That Savings from Digital Marketing Are Reinvested.
We asked marketers to identify how they're funding their digital marketing activities. We
found that digital marketing's effectiveness helps stretch digital marketing budgets.
more digital marketing. Fifty-nine percent of the marketers in retail organizations report that
this is happening compared with only 28% in manufacturing.
On average, 28% of marketers say they've reduced their traditional advertising budget to fund
digital marketing activities. Thirty-four percent of the marketers at high-tech companies are
more likely to take this approach compared with only 19% of the marketers at financial
services and insurance firms.
Reinvesting savings into digital marketing activities is a smart move. And it's a relatively
new activity in a corporate culture where technology has primarily been used in recent years
to cut costs. We don't recommend chasing shiny new objects unreservedly. Rather, we
suggest supporting a culture that is agile and keeps an open mind to testing new techniques
and underlying technologies. It's okay to fail as long as you fail fast in a program with a
limited scope and budget, and you intend to learn from these early failures.
marketers outsource one-half of their search marketing the highest proportion of any
marketing activity. Media companies, financial services firms and retailers keep a majority of
their search marketing work in-house.
Digital marketers are more likely to maintain social marketing in-house, with one exception:
Marketers at manufacturers outsource 53% of their social marketing activities. We find that
social analytics, and content creation and management are areas of focus for
outsourcing.Monitoring and analysing social activities require time and new technologies.
And keeping customers interested through social channels requires constant feeding and
nurturing with new content.As a rule, outsourcing your digital marketing activities is a smart
tactic when you don't have in-house resources to stay on top of quickly changing
technologies and techniques, or need specialized talent. But you need to monitor results,
ensure these providers have a stake in your success, and assume some risks.
70% of Companies Surveyed Have a Chief Marketing Technologist 80% of Them Report to
Marketing.
Marketing's dependence on technology results in new responsibilities and roles. We asked
marketers whether their companies have the equivalent of a chief marketing technologist and
where that person reports. Figure 6 shows that two out of three organizations have such a
role. Most of the chief marketing technologists report to a senior marketing executive and
only 13% report to the CIO.
Chief marketing technologists are familiar with marketing techniques as well as technologies.
They need to understand how to use technology to define markets, attract, acquire and retain
customers. They often have organizations that align this goal to areas such as marketing
software, data and analytics, social and mobile platforms, digital advertising networks
collaboration and website design. This role may come under one of many different titles,
including CTO of marketing, chief digital officer, chief digital marketing officer, VP of e-
business or even the CMO.
What's driving the need for this role? Marketers are increasingly dependent on technology to:
• Design the customer experience across many channels social, mobile, commerce and
website.
• Integrate data from an increasing number of sources, including internal data (such as
transactions or on-site search) and external data (estimated household income) to get a
better understanding of customers.
• Support marketing campaigns and programs, such as a mobile app, paid search
marketing and social marketing.
• Hiring marketing technologists will help you achieve your tactics. But you need a senior-
level executive who can guide your customer experience strategy across many
technologies the organizational goals channels and match marketing to.
Data was gathered from responses to the following questions: Does your organization
have the equivalent of a chief marketing technologist today? If so, where does he or she
report?
The Top 3 Digital Marketing Activities Key to Marketing's Success Corporate Website,
Social Marketing and Digital Advertising.
Marketers are focused on the marketing mix that will drive success. We asked digital
marketers to identify the three digital marketing activities that are most important to their
success.
Below Figure shows that the corporate website and digital advertising share the distinction of
being the No.1 digital marketing activities that are important to marketing's success. Social
marketing emerged as the next most important activity.
Our survey results suggest that the corporate website will not be displaced by a brand's social
media presence anytime soon. That's all the more reason for marketing leaders to
continuously invest in testing and optimizing their websites, paying
attention to all aspects from customized landing pages to compelling content that encourage
visitors to be engaged with your brand.
Only 9% of respondents said that analytics is most important to their success. We believe this
is an oversight. You need to use analytics to support continuous improvement, understand
your customers' requirements and drive results.
Data was gathered from responses to the following: Please prioritize which of these digital
marketing activities are most important to your marketing organization's success by choosing
three and ranking them most important, second most important and third most important.

CHAPTER 5
FINDINGS, SUGGESTIONS AND CONCLUSION
5.1 FINDINGS
1. Most of the real sector people actually understanding the value and opportunities of
digital marketing.
2. With the study of digital marketing I came to its emergence and extreme growth in
today’s scenario.
3. What I found in client servicing is convincing clients is bit complex as they too have
complete knowledge about the digital marketing and also explaining how we are better
than others.
4. Most of the sectors initially opt for the digital marketing channels name search engine
optimization, search engine marketing and social media marketing and later they will
think about other channels which mean these three channel high acceptance.
5. It is easier to approach a company’s if you first send them an E-mailer to related sector
and then call them in fact sometimes the company itself call having seen the E-mailer.
6. Indian customers are highly information seekers. They collect more information about
quality, price and refer customer’s experiences before purchasing a product.
7. Advertisements have high impact for creating stimulus in Indian customers. But this
stimulus will get in to action only through opinion leaders.
8. Indian consumers have high tendency to go for online purchase. They have high affinity
to go online for electronic products and apparels.
9. One of the current trends in Indian youth and young Indians are watching the T.V
programs via online portals. May be the main reason is convenience of time, they can
watch programs which they had skipped due to some reasons.
10. The same thing is happening for the newspaper also, people have more affinity towards
online news portals. Here's the reason may be they can get news updates very early; they
don’t need to wait for daily newspapers.
11. In both of these cases, one opportunity is lost for marketer and one opportunity is
emerging for them to reach their T.G.
12. More than 90% of the samples have a mobile or Smartphone and laptops or PC. 96% of
samples have an internet connection is any of these gadgets, this showing the penetration
of internet in india.
13. If we take tablet, penetration in Indian is low. But it doesn’t mean that no one is using
tabs. More than 30% of samples have tablet. For brands they are getting three more
platforms to reach their T.G and engage them.
14. 33% of the samples are using these gadgets while they are with their friends, so just
think about the reach. If one person noticed something which is cool and awesome they
will surely communicate to others.
5.2 SUGGESTIONS
While there are many ways to acquire new clients, most come from referrals. In fact,
according to WordStream’s State of the Agency report, 51% of surveyed agencies consider
referrals their main source of acquiring new clients, followed by upsells from other products
or services at 20%.
Hire more employees, Posting to job boards can be effective, but there is nothing quite
like getting a personal recommendation. When we look to add to our team, we have found
success by reaching out to industry contacts to see if they or someone they know is looking
for work.
5.3 CONCLUSION
The successful completion of this internship indicates that the future of marketing is in
the hands of digital. Digital marketing is not only concerned with placing ads in portals, it
consists of integrated services and integrated channels. Marketers want to use these
components in an effective way to reach target groups and to build a brand. In this digital era
marketer is not the custodian for a brand, people who are connected across the digital
platforms are the custodians.
Brands want to build their presence over digital platform, because customers have
high affinity towards digital media than other media’s. More than that customers are highly
information seekers and digital media is the only platform for two way communication
between brands and customers.
Digital media is the best platform to convert a product to a brand. Because it is more
cost effective and it provide lot of touch points to marketer. Brands can able to engage their
target group in an effective way through digital platforms. Digital media is not only for
engagement, brands can increase their customers or they can retain their existing customers.
Digital platforms help to increase the impact of brand recall in target groups.
