Web marketing

In recent years, the way we do advertising and marketing has changed considerably. Today it is unthinkable not to take into account the largest global data traffic channel: the Internet.

In this way, web marketing has become a key discipline for companies and brands that want to position themselves digitally. But how can web marketing help?

What is web marketing?

Also known as online or digital marketing, web marketing is the set of commercial strategies and actions carried out through the Internet. This form of advertising appeared in the 1990s, since before this decade marketing was only offline.

One of the main advantages of web marketing is that it encompasses all kinds of actions (from images, videos, podcasts, texts…) to reach a specific audience, specifically selected according to behaviour, characteristics or interests. All this is done with the mission of increasing sales, getting more customers and improving the company’s reputation on the Internet.

In addition, web marketing offers the possibility of reaching remote places, and even crossing territorial barriers, finding customers in places that were previously unthinkable because it was impossible to access them. Today, it is estimated that more than 5 billion people in the world have a mobile device and most of them have an Internet connection. In short, web marketing is now the most cost-effective, efficient and accurate way to reach customers all over the world.

Corporate identity and web marketing

As you can imagine, both the business world and the digital ecosystem are highly competitive sectors, and even more so when they come together. This is where the concept of corporate identity comes into play, which is the process and series of factors that differentiate a brand from its competitors.

This definition is created to design elements that dive into the conscious and subconscious mind of the consumer in order to leave a positive footprint. Letting your potential customers know who you are because of their experience with your product, or because of how popular it is, significantly defines the growth of a company.

Among the basic factors that stand out to achieve a good corporate identity are the following:

  • Company name: It is the easiest way for your clients to differentiate you from the rest and talk about your services.
  • Logotype: It refers to the symbolic aspect of your brand, this usually goes to the user’s subconscious, who later remembers and associates it.
  • Typography: Also known as font or letter style, typography is essential as it shows a differentiating and unique aspect with respect to the competition.
  • Colour palette: As you know, colours reflect emotions, so they should be chosen according to the visions and objectives of the brand.

Web marketing to strengthen your corporate identity

Some of the most important aspects of corporate identity are the graphic design of the logo and brand, web design and editorial design, but we cannot forget the management of the brand on the Internet. Web marketing encompasses everything from publications on social networks to SEO positioning, including content for blogs or advertising on the main search engines.

Knowing the concepts of digital marketing and a brand’s corporate identity, it is a fact that the two are connected, and are almost dependent on each other. However, here are some of the ways in which having knowledge in this area could help to take your company’s image to the next level:

Internet advertising
