1:The history and evaluation of digital marketing

What is Digital Marketing?

Digital marketing is also known as online marketing. To put it simply, digital marketing refers to the
marketing of products or services over any type of digital or electronic media.

history of digital marketing:

The digital age dawned with the advent of the internet and the Web 1.0 platform,
which enabled users to find information; however, there was no option to share
this information. At this stage, marketers were wary of using the digital platform
for marketing, as the internet itself was not deployed widely.

Digital Marketing as a term was coined in the ’90s, with the advent of server-
client architecture, and the rising prevalence of personal computers.

It was at this age that the Archie search engine was developed, to index FTP sites.
Storage capacity of computers in the 1980s had already been increased to store
voluminous data, and companies started switching to database marketing and
other online techniques
