Why Digital Marketing is a high demand job?

The year was 1994 and two students from Stanford University built a directory of websites that helped everyone with an internet connection to access the internet in a better way. Everyone wanted their websites to be found and started listing them in this directory. With the birth of Google in 1998, the internet saw a paradigm shift. As the list of websites grew manifold, now browsing through lists was not enough and Google created a search engine to help internet users. Making your website visible on these search engines required some work but Digital Marketing as a career got a big leap with the introduction of Myspace and Facebook. Digital Marketing then became a serious career option and thus web 2.0 saw its adolescence.
