Bill Gates, in 1996, predicted ”content is king,” Bill said content would revolutionize the internet because it “allows material to be duplicated at a low cost, no matter the size of the audience.

Most of you know that Biznology is all about digital marketing, which is a nice hot topic to cover.

Far from becoming unimportant, brand marketing is becoming more important to more companies every day. Read the remainder of this entry »
