Over the past few weeks, we have noticed that our 720MEDIA website traffic has increased by about 15%. We attribute this to the organic search engine marketing that we do in addition to our social media promotion.

A great example is Twitter - an effective tool for marketing and promoting our clients. We use Twitter to talk about our daily insights and news. It’s a great way to stay in the loop with 720MEDIA.

Here is a summary of our tweets Feb 1 – 7, 2009:
