The future of e-mail marketing

E-mail was there and it is here to stay. Apart from telephone, and other various mediums of communication, e-mail has grown to become an integral part of communication. Although it took quite sometime for e-mail to be recognized as next level of direct Internet Marketing, it has grown quite fast, and with its growth, came a lot of SPAM and with SPAM came legislations and with legislations came awareness, and all this while, we had some really smart companies already using this medium to achieve maximum results.

Yes, try sending a bulk mail now, and there is a good chance that it will land up in e-mail users "BULK" folder as compared to "golden era" when a "bulk" folder was non existent. However, with increase in awareness, and also effectiveness of e-mail marketing, we have seen quite some companies started up that solely live out of e-mail marketing niche segment.

What we can expect to see would be an increase in number of SPAM mails. No matter how many SPAM checking applications be set up, some mails do work their way around to end up in your inbox. And loser in this battle between "good" and "evil" mail will be that genuine mail that your dear friend sent you.

The E-mail market will have to get its act right so as to ensure that it does not end up as a completely messed up segment. Google has taken e-mail marketing to new heights, in terms of advertising its ads relevant to e-mail content. This is one indication that while Google could very well jump into e-mail marketing segment, given fact of number of e-mail addresses it should be having on its data centers.

However, fact remains that e-mail marketing must and should improve its act if it has to stay in business. At end of day, we would not to see people frustrated to such a extent that they completely stop using e-mail, or may be work around this in a way that real e-mail addresses are actually cloaked and only application would know real e-mail address that has to be delivered to.

All said and done, Internet marketing is one segment that really requires a professional's hand and mind. Although simple it might seem, this is one area of marketing which marries technology and marketing bring you this intriguing world of what we call Internet.

Looking at this through bigger perspective, we can see an increase in revenues that will be spent towards having a successful Internet marketing campaigns, thereby, adding impetus to fact that Internet Marketing is here to stay.

I sincerely hope that I can be proved wrong and, for once, Microsoft can deliver on their promises. Early reports do, however, indicate that their new browser will only work with Windows XP, leaving many users out in cold still. Even if Microsoft does get it’s act together there is one thing they’ll never have – cross-platform compatibility. While Firefox will run under Mac OS X, Linux, even old BeOS systems, as well as Windows, IE is limited to Windows only. So for now Firefox is far and away best choice of browser for web, and looks like it may stay this way for some time to come.

Do you not want to believe what I am saying? Well, even almighty Google agrees with me. Just try searching for ‘best browser’, or even ‘browser’ in Google, and just see what comes up. Even MSN seems to agree. If you haven’t yet tried Firefox and would like to give it a go, it can be downloaded here.
