Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Here is a strategy that just doesnt work (if you dont use it). Far too often online, business owners work hard to develop an SEO strategy that encompasses Meta title information as well as keyword rich content only to abandon the idea at some point. SEO WILL NOT WORK if you dont keep at it.

Calendar of Events This strategy is also problematic especially if you list events that were outdated more than a year ago. Usually a calendar of events page starts out with great intentions, but gets lost in the shuffle at some point. If no one updates the calendar and youre not hearing from customers its quite possible your customers are going elsewhere because the site feels very old somehow. If you are unable to keep up with changing time sensitive information it might be in your best interest to remove it from your site altogether.

Site Design As a business owner you have the right to fine-tune your website as often as you need to. Right? Well your site design tells your customer a lot about you. If the site looks like its been thrown together it tells the customer to move along. So, Site Design is a strategy that doesnt work if you dont ultimately care about putting your best face forward.

Glitz & Glam Many site designers are being deluged with requests for upscale Flash design that may include graphic and animation combinations with a twist of audio thrown in for fun. You might want to ask yourself if the primary target for your site care about content or a few bells and whistles. If the add-ons dont contribute to the effectiveness of your website in reaching customers it may also be a strategy that is just not useful.

Some Internet marketing strategies dont work because you havent given them enough time to make an impact. Other Internet marketing strategies may not work with the target audience you are attempting to reach. Finally, there are marketing strategies that dont work because they require consistent upkeep. Learn to tell the difference and your marketing strategies will improve.
