1.0INTRODUCTION
Online has always taken a back seat to offline in brand
building. Yet online offers the best options for building a
meaningful brand, options that didn't exist only a few
years ago. Companies without a solid digital brand
strategy are literally being left behind as leaders build
new digital brands.
Reflecting on the current state of online advertising, the
majority of online marketers are doing a terrible job of
building their digital brands. Advertisers are fighting
tooth and nail to produce the world's worst advertising,
actually destroying their existing offline brands in the
digital realm.
For the most part, if one looks at ads that run during top
TV programs or that appear in top magazines, one will
find quality in the advertising (even if the ads are a bit
dry and boring). But if one looks at a top web site and
views a few dozen ads, it will be very difficult to find
quality advertising. In effect, the bulk of the ads online do
more harm than good to the brands they are trying to
build.

Such companies as GeoCities (which helps consumers
express themselves by building and displaying their own
Web pages) offer the promise of self-expression and
recognition. Ralston Purina Dog Chows site allows
consumers to create home pages that display pictures of
and stories about their pets.
Clubs or communities offer the promise of belonging, as
well as concrete advantages. Women, for Example, can
exchange stories and tips with one another at the
iVillage.com site. Mercata.com provides a more tangible
benefit by aggregating the purchasing power of its
community of users and thus helping them get better
prices for a broad range of merchandise.

Fulfillment
Great security and brands can go only so far; a trustbuilding site must also fulfill orders efficiently and with
minimal hassles. Nothing alienates a buyer more than
getting thrown off-line, finding the site frozen, or making
a wrong entry that causes the loss of pages of entered
information. And at some sites, prospective buyers must
slog through a lengthy registration process before
discovering that sales taxes, shipping, and handling
charges greatly increase the total price of their purchase.
The best practice: explain all costs, and have an
infrastructure that gets the right product to the right
buyer in a reasonable period.
Leading Web companies are streamlining the purchase
and fulfillment process. Amazon.com has led the industry
with a "1-click" mechanism, through which buyers enter
an address and credit card information for the first sale
only. After that, Amazon.com remembers the details.
Marketers also are beefing up customer service to
provide fast and accurate answers to queries arriving online and through call centers.

reflect that sensibility; a heavy-metal fan would enjoy a

raising a hungama about this new website in almost no time

The business model of sites like C2W and Hungama is
simple - they believe in the Internet maxim: "content is
king". And they keep that content fresh. Of course, content
for them is not news and features, but contests, promotions
and incentives rewarding users for spending time on their
sites. And there are four steps involved in making this
business model pay off for them:

Need to improve service.
India can be seen has a good market for digital
branding.
Digital
brands
should
try
to
build

among
consumers.
As major population does not access internet but there
is a higher scope for digital brand to grow as a market.
Need to penetrate market with higher quality and
lower price.
And have a special team to know needs of the
consumers that may help branding.
And as can be considered the future market.
Customer should be educated about about the brand
and its advantage.
Regular feedback should be taken by the consumers.

9.0 CONCLUSION
The world of consumer products is quickly changing and
developing through new technology and an evolving
knowledge of what consumers really prefer both online
and in the real world.
The explosion of Web content has grown faster in the last
year than Web usage. As a result, it is actually harder to get
noticed and have people stay around a site than it was
three years ago. Marketers not only must get people to their
site, they must get them comfortable enough to place an
order. As a result, one of the biggest challenges on the Net
