Abstract

Examines the World Wide Web (WWW) ‐ a relatively new Internet service based on hypermedia, as a marketing tool, illustrating the issues raised with case examples. Explains how information can be accessed and disseminated via the WWW using a typology developed by the authors. An analysis of current usage patterns indicates that several underutilized elements of the typology may provide a competitive advantage to companies which adopt them.
