Automating Online Marketing

Online marketing ties together creative and technical aspects of the web, including: design, development, advertising and sales. The digital marketing industry covers a wide scope of activity because it refers to the web, seo, sem, edm, social media and mobile and then all links back into customer and content management systems.

Given the complexity and increasing requirements of online marketing, software has developed to simplify these processes and automate repetitive tasks. Marketers specify criteria and outcomes for campain goals and processes which are then interpreted, stored and executed by marketing automation software to increase efficiency.
