the infrastructure of network servers and wide-area communication links between them that are

used to hold and transport the vast amount of information on the Internet.

related digital technologies to achieve marketing objectives and support the modern marketing

Internet used as business purpose

Internet only recently been widely adopted for business purposes? The development of the

World Wide Web. This became a commercial proposition in 1993 after development of the

original concept by Tim Berners-Lee, a British scientist working at CERN in Switzerland in

1989. The World Wide Web changed the Internet from a difficult-to-use tool for academics and

technicians to an easy-to-use tool for finding information for businesses and consumers.

The ration of total population & pentration is 1:3.

1.2 Need for the study

Need of internet marketing

The internet maerketing leads to business listings and the advertisements facilities that world

needs provides is very effective because, businesses can have their own page and advertisements

about their business apart from normal listings.Internet marketing also offers search engines.

The online shopping facility will be convenient for people to purchase products online.

On the basis of the above clarification, Internet appears to have a comparatively higher cost of

acquisition. However, Internet has brought with it a very high degree of control to the media

user. All of this makes Internet a highly interactive media but also an expensive one.

If the internet is treated and used exactly like any other medium, it is unlikely to yield major

benefits to the marketer. Its effectiveness is dependent not only on the target audience one is

talking to, but also largely on the ability of the marketer to make use of the real advantages of the

Net like interactivity, flexibility, ability to monitor and the like.

To the user:

Internet gives more control in choosing content. It offers customization of the content, the way

the user wants to view it. It offers a variety of options for information and entertainment. It

offers a wide range to choose from for the user.

Page 15: Impact of Digital Marketing as a Marketing Tool in India

Page | 15

It offers tremendous convenience to the user not only in delivery of information, but also in

allowing him to transact — often in a seamless manner.

To the marketer:

The Internet offers several options to a marketer trying to target a particular community It serves

not only as a channel of information, but also of product distribution. It offers a highly

interactive medium that sometimes (e.g. chats, forums, VoIP) is almost equal to one-to-one

interaction with the audience.

It offers a higher level of identification of the user to the marketer.

It allows the marketer to actually link his spends to action, and pay only on action

This action could be a click on the banner or even product purchased or just a banner impression

or per 1000 impressions. In this ability Internet is, in fact, unlike any other media.

Given the payment options and high interactivity, the Internet offers a medium for high level of

experimentation at a low cost.

Growth of Internet usage and E-commerce in INDIA:

1. According to the research report of Goldman Sachs, India has emerged as the second largest

Internet market in Asia after China with 100 million users in 2005. It estimates that Indian

Internet Users will increase by 130% compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) from 0.5 million

users recorded at end of 1998. As per preliminary findings of the NASSCOM survey, the total

volume of E-commerce transactions in India was about Rs.131 crore in the year 1998-99.

Page 16: Impact of Digital Marketing as a Marketing Tool in India

Page | 16

2. Out of this volume, about Rs.12 crore were contributed by retail Internet or Business-to-

Consumer transactions, and about Rs.119 crore were contributed by Business-to-Business

transactions.

Internet is available in regional languages also. Even today this medium is largely

confined to only those who are literate in English. Various initiatives of companies like

ITC and HLL like E-choupal and i-Shakti have given a considerable boost to vernacular

usage of internet.

the current scenario, the usage of internet might be dominated by telephone lines, but

Financial benefits of Internet Marketing

Internet Marketing is a hot topic especially in these days of instant results. The reason why i-

marketing has become so popular is because they provide three major benefits to potential

buyers:

1. Convenience: Customers can order products 24 hours a day wherever they are. They don’t

have to sit in traffic, and a parking space, and walk through countless shops to find and

examine goods.

2. Information: Customers can find reams of comparative information about

Companies, products, competitors, and prices without leaving their office or home.

3. Fewer hassles: Customers don’t have to face salespeople or open themselves up to

persuasion and emotional factors; they also don’t have to wait in line.

Internet Marketing also provides a number of benefits to marketers:

1. Quick adjustments to market conditions: Companies can quickly add products to their

offering and change prices and descriptions.

2. Lower costs: On-line marketers avoid the expense of maintaining a store and the costs of

rent, insurance, and utilities. They can produce digital catalogs for much less than the cost of

printing and mailing paper catalogs.

3. Relationship building: On-line marketers can dialogue with consumers and learn from

them.

4. Audience sizing: Marketers can learn how many people visited their on-line site and how

many stopped at particular places on the site. This information can help improve offers and
