'Stores Online' Internet Marketing Workshop

[Tiggy]

Has anyone heard of these? They are holding free workshops at the moment in London and they just sent me a DVD through the post telling me about themselves.

Basically they offer courses on everything you need to know about internet marketing and then you can choose whether to choose them to build and host your website.

They seem to be American and have been going since 1995.

Marketing topics that they teach are:

Search Engines - how to make sure your site always appears on or near the top of the list without costing a fortune
Strategic Links
Usenet Marketing
Sponsored Listings
Comparison Shopping Portal
Vertical Portal
Web Rings
Power publishing
Online Auctions
Affiliate Programmes

Is there anything in this list that is not commonly known by anyone with an average experience of interenet marketing? Is it all information that you could basically find out yourself with a little time and energy anyway?

Thankyou
Tiggy

You can certainly find all that info yourself if you wanted to - there are lots of marketing resources available. I'm not sure I would want an American company telling me how to market in the UK, when there are so many UK companies who are likely to know the UK market better?

According to me it is a great list which can make your site always appears on or near the top of the list without costing a fortune...
