Just about everyone on the planet has heard of MySpace.com. What is My Space and why is it so important to Internet Marketing? Simple, it is a place on the internet that allows regular people like you and me to set up our own website for free. It allows for customization and opinions to be expressed.

Why is this so important to marketing your product? My Space probably averages over a million hits per day by everyday people, everyday clients who just want to connect and let themselves be heard. It also has sponsors who pay to advertise on My Space. Still you’re probably wondering what this has to do with you and what you have to offer.

Simple, when you are creating a website, no matter how business oriented or what your demographics are, you want to make sure that other companies want to advertise on your site as well. If you design your site to just sell your product then you are cutting yourself short.

By now you should be all to familiar with words such as search engines and KEYWORDS. Let’s discuss the designs themselves. Think about the product and or services you are offering. What are the demographics of the clients you are trying to reach? If this is a business offering online services in accounting then you don’t want your website background to be neon pink with floating butterflies.

You will probably lean more towards the reserved. Do you want to tell about your company or the employees? If you choose to discuss your employees make sure you have them sign a release form before adding anything about them.

Maneuverability is one of the most common complaints people will blog about. One common form of easy maneuverability is putting together a table of contents using the JavaScript language. This will allow the surfer to view all the site has to offer then point and click to the linked page. This will also cut down on the number of negative bloggs you may encounter.

Another thing you want to think about is where to put the links. Do you want graphics or text to be used as links. Once again that depends on the type of products and services you are offering. Let’s say for example you are setting up a new Pregnancy online Magazine for expectant Fathers. Why fathers? Because you realize that the male portion of the market is virtually untapped. After all Fathers have just as many worries and concerns as mothers.

Now that you have an idea for a product or service you need to make a list of what you want on the site. The first is articles about the way men feel about…(fill in the blank). The second possibly a blog or guest book set up…Do you want photos and graphics. Next, how to draw the attention of advertisers. Look at different websites that have to do with selling baby items such as diapers, furniture, clothes, safety items and the list can literally go on.

Contact the companies and let them know about the new magazine you have. It’s up to you to sell the site. Remember to believe in what you have and it will work for you.
