Summary: Introduction
The audiences with whom we want to communicate are spending more and
more time online – more than on any other media
Marketing budgets are also moving onto the web, but not as fast as the
audience, resulting in an “opportunity gap”
The web has some powerful advantages for marketers – in particular:
It is cheap to use
You can reach a very wide audience
You can deliver messages in any combination of text, images, video, audio
Communication can be in both directions
You can segment your audience and target different sub-groups very effectively
You can measure ROI very effectively
The wide range of options available to marketers on the web can be
confusing, and this is partly why online marketing spend is lagging behind the
migration of the audience online
Because the web is very different from traditional media, we need to
understand in some detail how it works and how to get the most from it

prioritisation and/or badly signposted ‘calls to action’.

1: Review your site (Expert review)
2: Talk to your users (Online surveys / Usability labs)
3: Understand your users (Personas)
