Internet Business Models
Software as a Service:
Is closely related to the premium services that we have seen, but there are important differences in this respect, more goals than the actual operation. What I see is that software as a service (SaaS) is to lead the network applications that we used normally installed on our computers and in many cases these applications are more aimed at the business use. Besides the companies that offer software as a service also provides ongoing support and maintenance to business customers, so the relationship and dependence between the two is far in May. Premium services for their part are applications that take full meaning on the Internet, and often do not even have an offline equivalent, plus in most cases do not have options for user support. As the SaaS is primarily targeted at businesses find it much easier everything that has to do with charging for the use of applications, businesses are more accustomed to paying for certain tools the user.
Email marketing:
Forgotten by the majority of projects that have recently emerged on the network, but we should consider it more as it has always been a good way to supplement income from advertising on the web. Sending newsletters by email, either with the contents of the website or specific content has been moved by subscribing via feed, especially by blogs, but there are still many people who would prefer that you get the information by email instead of having to surf the web in search of new content being created. There are many companies that specialize in email marketing for businesses and working with advertising results is a fairly common method. Finally, we should consider it as a perfect complement to e-commerce and stores that can inform their customers of new products and offerings, only to maintain contact with the user and affect the brand’s presence and can be quite useful.
Business Channels:
It is an option that has become popular thanks to Youtube that is offering long and reaching agreements with all types of businesses to create their own channels within the portal videos. Companies involved in audio-visual items are in perfect showcase Youtube to broadcast their content and this site offers the ability to customize their channels and provide specific options for their users. This system have begun to use some projects in Spain and I think it will be a good option to diversify income or access to companies to build relations or advertising services.
Brokerage:
Many websites are already content or services using affiliate or intermediary systems as the main source of income. It is impossible for millions of users that populate the network with information and direct access to a service, so the companies that have offered to serve as intermediaries to bring their message or products to as many users as possible . These companies sell their products or services have defined their own systems of working with brokers and how much better is the relationship between the firm and the broker can obtain better results. Businesses such as the sale of airline tickets or hotel reservation is well suited for this, also brokering the sale of financial products. The price comparisons and products are some of the sites that base their business model brokering.
