Promotion Tip
- Web promotion and site design are not independent processes. To maximize the effectiveness of your site, many aspects of the design will need to be tailored to meet marketing goals.
- Site marketing should not be done independent of general company or product marketing. The strategies and branding should be aligned to create a cohesive effort.
