BURY businesses are being given the key to on-line success later this month.

Business Link North Manchester is hosting a series of events across the region for companies wishing to learn and develop their use of the Internet and related technologies.

For just £10 plus VAT businesses will be able to get expert help on how to utilise new technology, get their business online, launch their first company website or even how to implement a full e-commerce programme. Those attending will also be able to enjoy a "byte" of breakfast on arrival.

The next event in the series, "Marketing Your Business Online", will be held on Thursday, February 19 between 80am and 10am at The Village Hotel, Bury.

Presented by Jan Klin of Jan Klin Associates, the event will take a closer look at how websites can become a powerful tool for marketing business and increasing sales. Jan's presentation will draw from the most current practice of effective Internet marketing.

Issues covered include getting a company's website to the top of the search engines, promoting websites through affiliate marketing, making sure potential customers don't get annoyed and the latest tactics on how to direct prospective customers to a businesse's website rather than just waiting for them to find it.
