~Lesson summary ~
In this lesson I learned and researched about different types of online
services and how they are used with their advantages and there
disadvantages. You can use online services for communicating to friend and
family and allows you to socialize. Before Wi-Fi (1800s) u had to send a
letter abroad if you wanted your friends or family to know good/bad news.
This way of communication used to be very time consummating. Whereas
now you can communicate to your friends and family via email or skype.
This process is very rapid and not expensive so it is clients needs. Online
services can also be used for entertainment and education as well. I have
also learned this lesson that the more you use the internet the more
isolated you become from the rest of the world.

Online advertising

There are different methods in which you can advertise online the main ones
are:
Search engine results page
Banner and pop ups
Email marketing
Pay per clicking advertising

Different companies can use the

search engine results page for
advertising. This is really good as
when you search for something
and you can get advertisements
related to the subject you
searched for. This is great benefit
if need to buy something online
and you can get different companies in the ads section and you can compare
the prices. Like the example shown above.

Another one is banners and pop ups. This method of advertising is when
youre watching a video or reading something you have pop ups and banners.
The advantages for this method of advertising the Ad design is successful as
it is eye-catching and grabs the peoples attention. The down side to this
method of advertising is that it can be very annoying when youre watching
something and you keep getting pop ups. They might me annoying but the
companys do have to succeed with their motive of getting the buyers
attention.

 Email marketing is another way of advertising for the growth of your
business. There are many advantages with this method of advertising. One
benefit is that it is not time consuming as one email can be sent to millions
of people in minutes and its a fast process. One the disadvantages for this
method of advertising is Email Phishing. The definition of email phishing
when you receive an email that look as if
it was sent from the bank, PayPal or an
internet service that seem to look very
disbelieving. You should delete that
email straight away. Because that
phishing is fake message that can illegally
get your personal information from the
receptionist.in most cases people receive
a fake email form a bank (which is not really a bank) the link to the website
looks real so the person might be convinced into entering their personal
details (for example name, password, bank details and address etc.) one the
hackers have stolen your identity they can use your identity for illegal causes.

Pay per clicking is another method of advertising. Two companys make a

profit. The way this method works is that
companies would pay search engines to
advertise for their companies. So when a buyer
is interested and they click on the
advertisement link the search engine get
paid. The main rule that applies to this
process of marketing is spend, learn,
refine. An example is show above.

~Lesson summary~
This lesson I learned about the four main method of online advertising. The
methods were Search engine results page, Banner and pop ups, Email
marketing and Pay per clicking advertising. Through the lesson I
researched the advantages and disadvantages for these method of effective
advertising. In my opinion the least safe way of advertising was email
marketing. The reason for that is that I believe you can easily receive spams
such as phishing. With phishing hackers can get your personal information
and use it for illegal causes. In my opinion I believe the most effective way
of advertising is the pay per clicking because two companies make a profit.

What is the correct definition of email marketing:

Option 1)You get an leaflet by post about a company advertising their
company
Option 2)You get an email from a company advertising their on behalf of
their company
The correct answer is option 2

Scenario:
Emily receives a phishing email what should she do with it?
Save it in the archives Delete it immediately Click on the link and
folder enter her details as it
says on the website
The correct answer is delete it immediately

File compression :
File compression means to reduce the size of a folder or file for example
document, image, spread sheet, image or a sound file. Once you have
compressed a file it takes up less than 40% of space in the hard drive

Online document collaboration

Online collaboration lets a group of people work together in real time over
the internet. People use word processors and power points mainly in this
case and can even be used to brain storm ideas. I believe this is beneficial
for those people who might be across the world from their work place as it
helps them to catch up and keep updated. This modern technology makes
sure you dont have to be in the same room at the same time for a meeting.

stops you from getting into a building or a file.

the size of a file and this method also takes up less space on the
hard drive as well. I also learned about online document
