A
majority of email marketers are now making efforts to integrate social
media into their campaigns. An April 2010 survey by a study found that two-thirds of internet marketing companies in Cyprus were doing so, putting the
number who had integrated social and email, or planned to this year, at
71% worldwide.
More than
seven in 10 business executives surveyed around the world said they
were promoting their Twitter, Facebook or other social presence in their
email marketing messages which was part of their internet marketing campaigns in Cyprus. That was even more prevalent than
facilitating recipients to share messages socially (63%).
That
study found Facebook was the favorite for integration with email
efforts. More than nine in 10 marketers who combined social and email
used Facebook in their internet marketing promotions in Cyprus; nearly as many used Twitter. Fewer
than half of marketers integrated LinkedIn with their email programs.

Women Account for Bulk of Online Buying in Cyrpus
Paris Stylianides - Friday, August 13, 2010
Women may be slightly outnumbered on the web compared with men, but their dollars aren’t. According to a recent study, women account for just less than half
of internet users but make up a disproportionately large share of
online buyers, at nearly 58%.
Their share of transactions is even higher, with more than 61.2% of online purchases made by women. They also spent more than men, accounting for 58.2% of the total, suggesting men tend to make fewer purchases of bigger-ticket items, while women are more frequent buyers with a lower average order value.
Facebook advertising in Cyprus has proved to be a great way to reach women who exchange information about products with their friends. In Cyprus, women dominated most in the online market for fashion and jewelry, toys, housewares, books and other entertainment, and even video games. Internet marketing companies in Cyprus rely heavily on Facebook for their advertising campaigns.

What Makes Social Media Trustworthy in Cyprus
Paris Stylianides - Friday, August 13, 2010
One thing
that makes social media marketing powerful is consumers’ trust in "people like them"—their friends, family and other online peers.
Internet marketing companies in Cyprus want to tap into that trust through the power of earned media or by engaging in a conversation with consumers, but where social conversations take place has an effect on their perceived trustworthiness as well as who is taking part in them. Many Cypriot companies started realizing that they should gain their customers' trust by engaging a in a conversation which should be part of their business objectives.
A recent study found that the most trusted information was posted by people respondents knew. But blog posts were more likely to be trusted "completely" than posts on Facebook, and trust dropped off sharply when it came to Twitter, even among friends.
Postings by brands or companies were trusted less, but levels were similar whether companies posted to Facebook or blogs. Online community sites did not hold the same trustworthiness as Facebook or blogs, whether postings were made by companies or fellow members, and respondents had an even more skeptical eye for independent bloggers. And across all categories of content creator, Twitter streams were trusted less than other media.

Email Still Driving Shopping over Social
Paris Stylianides - Friday, July 30, 2010
Several
retailers can attest to the sometimes overwhelming power of promotional
messages on social channels. But despite the hype of viral coupons
testing retailers’ agility, studies suggest email is still the more
effective promotional channel as part of internet marketing campaigns in Cyprus.
Advertising on facebook has become such a hype in Cyprus, but what companies must realize is that both email marketing as well as facebook advertising are used to target different types of audiences. This is what most internet marketing consulting companies in Cyprus will recommend to any existing or new client. The reason behind this is simply the business objectives each company sets in order to raise their revenues and profit margins.

Where to Reach Women Online in Cyprus
Paris Stylianides - Friday, July 30, 2010
Women are
a prime target of marketers, and with good reason: Estimates put their
share of household spending at 80%, giving them control over about €1.7
trillion annually in the Europe
Marketers know they can reach the vast majority of these women online, and according to ad server, their top priority on the internet this summer will be connecting with family and friends (76%). About two-thirds of women also planned to keep up with the news and shop for sales. To that end, the sites they are most likely to visit include search engines (75%), shopping sites and social networks (both 60%).
Asked what kinds of ads would get through to them while conducting these activities, the top choice was online advertisements with money-saving offers. Women also appreciated advertising with an interactive component, like a chance to submit a prize entry or fill out a quiz, as well as local targeting. PPC advertising in Cyprus has proven to be effective despite the fact that internet marketing companies in Cyprus started to recommend social media optimization for their prespective clients. During a study, it has been noticed that social media optimzation in Cyprus is not more powerful than PPC advertising but just as effective when used to target specific audiences. Social ads were less enticing, with only 12% of women surveyed saying they were more likely to notice ads that asked them to share opinions and 7% interested in a Twitter feed within an advertisement.
