Web 2.0 Marketing

Web 2.0 has received plenty of hype and talk amongst avid internet users. But just because it's on the list of "talk about topics" doesn't mean we all know what it is and how it can benefit us. Basically, it describes the next generation of online services delivered through the Web. Since the internet was designed to connect the world, online services have moved up the plateau creating websites that are interconnecting promoting community development. Think of sites like Flickr, YouTube, Wikipedia, Pluggd and del.icio.us, and you'll get the point.

The idea behind all these ventures is a good one: use the power of the Internet to hook people together to create content, share expertise, and exchange ideas, opinions and preference through social interaction. The fact is people have resources they want to share and things they want to say, so giving them a place to express themselves and a community of users to share it with will result in a system that grows exponentially.

So what has it got to do with internet marketing? How should marketers look at the possibilities of Web 2.0? One of the great ways to start is to ask yourself, what you have to offer. If you are already selling info products and have your own website, this will be a launch pad to boost your business further. But if you are new to the internet business, Web 2.0 sites are ideal because it opens your channel of awareness and reach faster than if you were to have a sole website on your own.
