Recommended Web Sites
for Internet Marketing

The Internet offers powerful tools to help you find the right people to do business with. Use the Internet to connect with them, and close business deals quickly and cost-effectively. The new generation of the so called "Web 2.0 technologies" such as: blogs, Social Network Sites, virtual communities, and all the rest of new networking tools are of much help in marketing.

Research is very important for any company that wants to be successful in the Internet. Yahoo is well aware of this fact and has established its own research website. To keep up with research at one of the most important search engines, visit
Yahoo Research.

Something that is very irritating is the presence of badware in the Internet. We all have seen it happen: you or someone you know downloads something from the Internet that seemed harmless enough. Next thing you know, the computer has slowed to a crawl and pop-up advertising starts to appear out of nowhere. Now there is a web site to defend you from malware. Google is a partner in this program called
Stop Badware Org.
