What is Graphic Design?

Graphic design is the use of color, light, balance, comparison, focus, percentage, vicinity, repeating, structure and a variety of other components to create a perform of digital art that is attractive to the eye. Graphic design is about connecting image and written text to express a idea, thought, often promote products or services. graphic design can be dated back to the ancient era. With hieroglyphs and cave-dwelling designs that became some of the first written language. Although conversation, not aestheticism, was the concentration, one can still dispute for the overall visible style of the ancient performers.

With the 1584 Gutenberg Publishing Press, visible style took on a whole new significance. Now, written text, in addition to look and feel, could reach a broader audience than ever before. Although the use was - at first - mainly for Spiritual and other important documents, the pattern would soon propagate to visual-appeal. Graphics design, as we know it, didn't arrive until the computer era. With companies finding it progressively necessary to have a company identification solution, visually-pleasing logo, and an online business, graphic designers are definitely getting all the work they can handle.

Today, visible style and web development are two individual, but carefully related, organizations. Most all websites include visual components. When one is aware of this, they can really begin to understand the extensive effect that good design and style can have. Creating something with noticeable attraction is a time consuming task. Attempting to express an feelings or concept is especially difficult. Special consideration to the following concepts is necessary - feelings, style, concept, and structure.

Moreover, one must consider the viewers. Although anyone can view a web page, logo, or business identification package, only a few are really in the 'target market.' With visible design's globally attraction, designers have developed regional markets in which to display their abilities.

Define Internet Marketing



Internet marketing is literally defined as marketing of products and services on the internet.  But what does that mean and why do it?  Everyone now a day is trying to get a digital footprint on the internet.  Almost every country in the world is connected to the internet.  This gives endless possibilities to new and existing customers all over the world.  With traditional marketing, you could only reach a few markets at a time.  If your company put out an ad in a newspaper, the only customers you could reach were the ones who got that newspaper.  Same goes for getting an ad on a TV channel, the only people who are going to see that ad are the ones who watch that TV channel.   With internet marketing, you can now reach as many people as possible around the world.  It would be very costly to actually do this, but you get the point.

With internet marketing, you now have all types of new marketing techniques, like Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and marketing, banner ads and email marketing.  SEO is probably the most complicated of these.  More and more schools are now teaching this with their curriculum because it is one of the most valuable to know.  SEO is defined as the process of improving your websites visibility in GoogleBingYahoo or any other search engine’s organic results.  If your company specializes in car maintenance in Columbia, you don’t want your website to come up on the 4th or 5th page of results on Google.  Everyone’s goal is to be on the first few pages, because typically no one searches past the first few pages.  A good SEO with keep you at the top of the rankings.  It is a continuous process because the rules are every changing.  This is why it’s the most complicated of these new techniques.

A good way to put out new ads and info is with email blasts and newsletters.  More and more companies are creating weekly, sometimes more often, email newsletters.  This way they can get new information to a mass number of people easily and effectively. Just about every website that you can sign up for has some sort of newsletter that you automatically sign up for when you create a log in.  This way companies don’t have to always ask for email addresses from people.   It’s also usually very easy to unsubscribe from them if you don’t want them anymore.  But who want’s to unsubscribe from new information every week?

These are a few ways that the internet is changing the landscape of marketing and there are many more.  Traditional marking and internet marketing are going to co-exist for years to come.  Make sure you’re on the bandwagon.  Most companies are doing the basic things and having great results.  Internet marketing is absolutely important to firms these days to survive.

What is Seo?


So just what is search engine optimization and do you have to use it?

The answer to why you should use it is an easy one. You need search engine optimization to be number one, or at least make your site generate traffic, which in theory generates income for your business in the form of direct sales, or new customers.

So what exactly is search engine optimization?  It is an ever changing art-form utilizing tools and methods in making your site top ranking in the results of search engines, like google, bing, and yahoo. Getting yourself on the first page and better yet in the top 3 will ensure that you will generate public awareness of your site’s existence and generate more traffic, traffic that could lead to potential income and business.

With well done seo work you can get the benefit of generating a high traffic volume. Let’s just say you get a very successful sales conversion, netting 10 percent of your traffic. If you get a hundred hits or more a day, you would generate 10 or more sales a day. If you get only ten to twenty hits a day, you only get one or two if any at all.  It purely boils down to a numbers game.

Unfortunately, search engine optimization requires a lot of work to be fully realized. There are many aspects you have to change in your site or add as well to get the full benefit of seo. These will include gathering lots of information about the keyword(s) phrase(s) that are popular in regards to your business or product niche.

You may also need to rewrite your sites contents so that you could get the right keyword phrases in your site without making it too much like a commercial but informative. There are certain rules and guidelines to be followed with making your site’s content applicable and conducive to search engine optimization.

You will also need to collaborate with other sites so that you could get a link coming from their site to yours. The more inbound links generated among other relevant sites are one of the components search engines uses to rank sites.

Tips, guidelines and methods for search engine optimization are everywhere. Read as many articles as you can, the more knowledge and information you gather the better. This will all help you in getting those high rankings. This may require a little time and effort in your part but the benefits could be astounding.
