There are no instant results when it comes to internet marketing campaigns. It can be a waiting game trying to establish which techniques are working and which ones are not. Without the help of a website monitoring tool you could be chasing your tail. The website monitoring tool will show you several statistics that can be very helpful with deciding how to move forward with your marketing campaign.

One thing that is displayed in the monitoring report is where your traffic comes from. If you have used keywords like Mitsubishi parts, Volkswagen parts and Saab parts on your SEO campaign for the major search engines and that is where your traffic is coming from then you know your keywords are working. If you see that traffic is coming onto your landing page and quickly leaving, you might need to work on how your page is presented.

All of the statistics will help you not only tweak your existing campaigns but help you create new ones as well. You will see when people visit your site, how long they are there, how deep they dive into the site before leaving and if they make any interactions such as sign up for newsletters, comment on blogs or make a transaction. All of this information can help you determine if your SEO techniques are working, if your website is designed properly and who your targeted audience should actually be.

Retail Sales Vs Online Sales

Let’s face it, for the first time maybe in history the role of the storefront is undergoing major changes. The pressure is on brick and mortar retailers to adapt because web based online stores are offering consumers great prices and most of all convenience. With change comes opportunity. The opportunity for the storefront retail industry is in their ability to adapt to the multifaceted retail economy. Web sales are a big part of total retail sales for those retailers who have both brick and mortar and online stores. The web allows them to grow, try out new product lines and control inventory more effectively. When consumers shop online it’s all about the total experience. Price, convenience and saved time are high on their list. When you can shop at your convenience without using gasoline and fighting crowds what would you choose?

This is one reason that web based sales are starting to explode. The entire analysis of such a diverse subject is h more complicated than one may think. With many segments of the market and a diverse product base and very little comparable history of online sales to draw form it’s a best guess situation when predicting the future growth of retail online sales. There is no doubt that sales will increase, but the question is how much and how fast. The computer helped create a whole new economy when it comes to retail sales. Products that range from books, apparel and DVDs to Mopar Dodge Parts, Toyota Parts
and consumer electronics are available. There practically isn’t anything that can’t be bought online. Take into consideration the web influenced purchases that consumers make and you have a much bigger market share than originally thought.

Right now online retail sales make up about 8-10% of total retail sales. The market potential is so big that the dollar amount will reach a level equal with the storefront sales and eventually bypass the amount of storefront sales and become the major consumer marketplace around the world. When it comes to marketing on the web you have to think worldwide because every internet user is a potential customer. That’s two billion potential customers worldwide as of last count. Imagine the potential sales that you can glean from that.

So the 8-10% number will jump exponentially in the next five years and the number of online stores and diversity of products will also. Retail storefronts, hobbyists and entrepreneurs know the potential of web based sales and the advantages that those sales provide for target marketing to consumers. We are talking about something that has the potential to change the way the whole world does business. That includes business to business and business to consumer segments of the market. Computers and mobile devices are becoming more sophisticated every year and every year the share of online retail sales show double digit increases over the last.

Welcome to the new economy driven by online retail sales that are global and as diverse as you have ever seen!

The New Face of Shopping!

Online stores are popping up all over the internet and responsible for double digit growth in online retail sales year after year. Major retailers, entrepreneurs, and mom and pop shops have discovered the advantage of having their own online store. Companies like Amazon and eBay make it easy for the hobbyist or individual to become an entrepreneur. The advantages of course are that the internet allows you to reach millions of potential buyers, allows major retailers to control inventories better and try out new lines of products without the cost of a physical location and all the expenses that go with it.

Every year online sales increase into the double digits. You can buy almost anything at an online store from Hyundai Parts jeep parts, Mopar parts, clothing, and electronics to puzzles, books and DVDs.  Shoppers today are cost conscious and with the price of gasoline shopping from the comfort of your home any time of the day is a very attractive alternative to fighting traffic and crowds at the mall. Buyers are educated and that lower overhead translates into better prices online and the shoppers know that. As shoppers gravitate toward the internet for purchases that they used make locally the retail landscape will certainly change.

Big box retailers are moving to online stores as are retail stores like Macy’s, J.C. Penney and Bloomingdales. These large retailers have recognized the trend toward online sales and thus have benefited from online sales to help them continue to grow. At one point in 2011 Macy’s and Bloomingdales reported a 30% increase in online sales. MasterCard Advisors Spending Pulse reported and overall 14% increase in online sales and a twenty four consecutive months of online sales increases. Double digit growth has not been uncommon for online retail sales. If anything, the numbers are low because many stores do not separate online sales from sales at a physical store. For that reason the numbers may be skewed toward the lower end of the spectrum.

So online stores are really on the move and changing the way many companies do business. Whole industries have had to adjust. Advertisers now have to consider how to reach online shoppers and get them to shop at their online store. Marketing people now have to think about the web when pitching a campaign and of course retailers have had to add the online aspect to their sales efforts. When the industry reaches its full potential retail giants will look a lot different and the competition will be a lot stiffer. Competition for that matter may very well have a different face. It may very well be that entrepreneur or the hobbyist that decided to make a few extra bucks and has become a big hit with online shoppers. Changes happen fast in this industry and you have to be alert to take advantage of the trends. Over the years those who were alert have survived and those who were not so alert to the changes taking place slowly faded away.
