I used to enjoy going downtown, spending hours to shop for what I need and for things I desire.  However, due to the hectic schedule I have been having for almost a year now, I have slowly turned into one of those e-shoppers which is something I find so handy, without a doubt!

Through technology it is easier for retailers, agents and business owners to connect to their probable customers.  With loads of ways to market their products and brands, internet shoppers like me are always well updated on trends, great deals, upcoming interesting gadgets, services and more!  Yes.  Speaking from the heart, ads make shopping a better experience [at least for me most of the time].  Ads inform me about what’s new, what’s up, what’s next and even warn me on which items to avoid.

Aside from print, tv and radio advertising, for many years now internet marketing has been widely practiced and has actually grown much over time --- CPA marketing [Cost per Action], CPC [Cost per Click], CPL [Cost per Lead] just to name a few affiliate marketing strategies being applied these days to reach out to website and blog visitors and customers.

As an online shopper, you perhaps want to ask me the question “Which marketing strategies get your attention most of the time?”  I say, TV commercials, print ads and internet ads usually win my curiosity.

How about you?  Which type of ads are effective for you?  Do you shop online a lot or do you still prefer offline shopping?
