Once you've done these 6 Online Marketing Tactics and you are ready to increase your online presence, here are a few additional recommendations:

1. Think in multimedia.

Through video, photos and audio, a small business can provide excellent online marketing opportunities that will continue to create brand awareness in your audience. Once you create good multimedia content, distribute and leverage it across your many social networks.

2. Use Video.

A tour of your store/facility can make an easy video subject. You can post the video to your Facebook page through YouTube or Vimeo. YouTube  has analytics tools for their users so you can evaluate the effectiveness of your video content. Twitter can help you send the link to your followers.

Few companies blog consistently. Here’s why.
  • Good content takes time and passion. Small companies tend to have more passion but not much time. Big companies tend to have time (and they can hire writers to actually write), but they lack passion.
  • Good content takes an unbiased view. It’s much easier for small companies, especially really small companies, to be objective. It’s a rare big company where the majority of employees haven’t imbibed the Kool-Aid (or won’t pretend they have when decision makers are watching).
