    Introduction

    Invention of Internet is considered to be a milestone in human history and the start of the so-called Informational Age. It has changed everything, from the way of communication to the way of conducting business. Modern companies are willing to expand online which raises the question of successful online marketing.

    The expected contribution of the work is the result of website investigation as a main tool of online marketing, alongside discovering the modern ways of marketing online and revealing methods of websites assessment.

    The objectives of the thesis

    Primary objective is to analyze the Internet marketing strategies of international retailor companies and to investigate modern trends of Internet marketing. Secondary objective is to develop a comprehensive list of recommendations for the companies’ expanding online. 



    Methods of implementation

    Theoretical part of the thesis is devoted to the literature review of marketing modern concepts, Internet as the new emerging market and website being a core tool of online marketing strategy and promotion.

    Practical part illustrates the analysis on a chosen sample of businesses, summarized in synthetic list of recommendations for the retailor companies expanding online.

    Limitations

    Initially there was a risk of international companies’ unwillingness of revealing the information about their performance online which actually became true. It allowed fulfilling the primary objective of the thesis only partially, substituting the analysis of Internet marketing strategies of international retailor companies by the analysis of users’ perception of the website as the core item of the marketing strategy.
