Best Websites: Marketing Information & Advice

Marketing Secrets, Techniques, & Advice

The web is full of marketing information and advice. Some of these websites, blogs, and wikis are useful and some are completely useless. Below is a list of top 10 marketing websites that I find the useful for gathering marketing techniques, tips, tricks, news and statistics.

1. MarketingSherpa.com

Marketing info and research website

MarketingSherpa is a research firm specializing in tracking what works and doesn't in marketing. Their objective is to provide marketers the stats and instructions necessary to improve their results. This is one of the most useful publications I know.

2. MarketingProfs.com

Online Marketing Magazine

This marketing website specializes in strategic and tactical marketing know-how. It has over 313,000 members and 300 contributors. Although there are free articles, not everything is free. This resource provides members with practical marketing tools and information through articles, online seminars, case studies, workshops, templates, benchmark survey reports, buyer's guides and thought-leader panel discussions. Updated weekly.

3. WhamWiki.com

Marketing information gathered into lists.

It is the only marketing wiki that I could find. It's a great way to condense large quantities of information into manageable lists. This is a great tool to organize and store your marketing knowledge. The best part is that once you post information on Wham!, the rest of the community can help improve it. No filler. The goal is to collaboratively create the ultimate collection of how-to lists for marketers. Just the juicy bits.

4. OneDegree.ca
