Disadvantages
1: Scope
It is a “limited” market that can be conquered, if you only use the Internet for advertising display. While more and more people every day are now into the use of technology and surfing the World Wide Web there are quite a few of the average consumers out there that are still on the older forms of advertising as a means to gather information on certain products and services. Fortunately for us Internet
advertisers, that is changing quickly in our favor, and this will soon no longer be an issue.
2: Additional costs
If you decide to rent the help of a professional, a freelancer or a company for the production of your site and /or advertising for your product or service, of course it costs more than if you did it yourself. While the costs can advance an initial disadvantage, the results in the long term may in fact be very beneficial if you have the right people to work with.
