PDI Launches Two New Websites, Job Market Online and Pinoy Best Deals

Nearly 100% of all Filipinos use the internet daily and spend most of their time online. Checking their Facebook every 15 minutes, and posting tweets and snapshots on Twitter, Foursquare and Instagram soon add up and reveal that most Filipinos are actually online, most of the day.

As an avid internet user, I also fall guilty as charged. It’s the norm for me to have Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter always running in the background of my computer, iPad and iPhone. However, aside from checking Facebook or tweeting,  I’m also reading the latest articles, news, checking my emails, looking at Instagram, updating my websites and Facebook fan pages, etc. Does it make me one of the heavy Internet users? Hmm... I'm not sure. 

Could I go one day without using the internet? Again, I’m not so sure. :)

While the amount of time we spend online may seem extreme, I think it appears that our habits are also changing. We are moving from the TV to the PC and advertisers are developing new rich media ads that is far more interactive than ever was possible watching the TV or reading the newspaper.  Online websites are the new source of any hot news, gossip, a place to express everything. For some, it's their daily online diary. So shoutout to the advertisers for putting everything online. Makes life that much easier for people who prefer to stay online 24/7.

However, online advertising is not only enticing us to stay online, but encouraging us to go online. For instance, an online campaign featuring a viral video via YouTube with a new product encourages consumers to check out their website. Then a user tweet about it using the hashtag: #bestwebsiteever or #bestproductever. This kind of innovative campaign is quite clever because it uses the consumer to advertise on its behalf. Not only did they gain awareness for their own brand, but the campaign gives them instant promotion. This, in turn, encourages other users to use it, creating a viral effect. 

So it's really no surprise that leading advertisers are directing their focus online and have started to focus their attention by reaching consumers cross platform.

Philippine Daily Inquirer, the nation's #1 newspaper, has taken its rightful stead with online and social medium channels, bloggers included.
