Introduction to Inbound Marketing Inbound marketing is a process of using your web-site in a way that it attracts visitors naturally through search engines, the blogosphere and social media.The average human today is inundated with more than 2000 outbound marketing interruptions per day and we’re all figuring out how to block them. Caller ID, spam filters, TiVo, and satellite radio are all things we use today so that we can avoid being marketed to. In this course, you will discover how to attract customers to your site, what kind of content to share with them, how to use landing pages and forms to collect names and email address, and how to implement lead-nurturing campaigns that result in sales.
