to promote a brand, product, or service via social media, search,
email, and other digital channels.
It is also known as online marketing, digital marketing, or website
marketing.
Internet marketing provides a global reach, allowing businesses
to connect with a vast audience regardless of geographical
boundaries.
Internet marketing often offers cost-effective alternatives to
traditional advertising.
Internet marketing allows for real-time tracking and analysis of
campaign performance.
Internet marketing is a type of marketing that promotes a
business and its offerings through online channels to drive site
traffic, generate leads, and increase sales.
Internet marketing is important because it expands a business’s
reach and allows them to connect with more leads interested in
their business.
The importance of Internet marketing lies in that it best aligns
with the way consumers prefer to discover and purchase
products and services.
Examples of Internet Marketing:
1. Red Bull: Red Bull, a leading energy drink brand encourages sports and
adventure to advertise its products. The brand slogan used by Red Bull is
‘Red Bull gives you wings’. In 2012, Red Bull launched an interesting
digital marketing campaign called “Stratos”, in which Felix Baumgartner
was shown in a live-streamed video, breaking the Guinness World Record
for freefall skydiving by jumping from space. The video gained 6.8 million
views on YouTube. The video cultivated a feeling of risk and excitement in
the minds of the viewers (specifically youngsters) though the ad itself had
overlooked the product. The main success behind the ad was it displayed
events beyond human limits. Live streaming also helped in developing a
sense of friendship and immediacy.
3. Nike: Nike, a popular sports brand sells a wide range of products such
as footwear, apparel, and equipment. It is the World’s most valuable
clothing brand for seven times in a row as of 2022. Nike makes use of
influencer marketing by promoting its products through athletes such as

great skill to its users. In Nike’s “How We Do” campaign, Nella Rose, a
popular fashion influencer was seen promoting boxing among the
youngsters.
