Many businesses are seizing the opportunity provided by these platforms to market their goods and services in what is termed ‘E-marketing’. E-marketing opportunities on these platforms include Facebook, Twitter, Google, Whatsapp and Youtube marketing, marketing through personal blogs, SMS and Email marketing, among others.
