Great intro material, but lacks depth - Reviewed on 2009-01-18

This books is a good primer on Web Marketing, but it does not go into detail(as is the case with most Dummies books). I already knew most of the material in this book.

If you are new to web marketing, this is probably a good book to get you started. If are not a novice, you will probably not learn anything new.

All of the material in this book can be found on the web for free, but it is nice to have a bunch of nice introductory marketing information in a book.

My book arrived in perfect condition, just like new. This book was recommended by the S.B.A. and I'm 3/4th of the way through reading it. It has been a tremendous help starting a web based business.

This is a solid overview of the internet marketing genre. However, if you are serious about your small business, odds are you just do not have the time available to focus on internet marketing. Internet Marketing is something that requires a lot of work and a lot of attention. Having said that, you may go months without knowing if you are doing things correctly. The reason I say that is because search engines like Google, take several days even months to crawl your website and re-adjust its page rank calculations. If you are looking to get your web site to the top, I would highly recommend using professionals in the field. My advice would be to visit www.novelconceptstudio.com as they worked for me and did a phenomenal job keeping me in the loop.

Web Marketing for Dummies leverages your line marketing knowledge in controlling the Web. Because the author wrote this for owners of small businesses, where money is king, I suggest dozens of free low-cost guerrilla marketing ideas you can try online.
