It is done online, using things like search engines, social media, email, and other websites to connect with current and potential customers.[1][2][3]

Because computers and cell phones are used more now, marketing has changed. Now businesses are using the Internet to market their product or services.[4]

Differences from traditional marketing

Digital Marketing is different from traditional marketing. Traditional marketing uses offline channels, while digital marketing uses online channels. A traditional marketing campaign, for example, may use billboards, radio ads, and news stories, while a digital marketing campaign may use social media, blog posts, and email to promote a business and its offerings.
