First came internet bookmarks.  Then came the bookmark toolbar.  For years website owners have been trying to find ways to get people coming back for more.  Matt Marshall’s article at VentureBeat, "Conduit’s custom toolbar sees strong uptake," highlights a new option for website owners looking to get their name in front of visitors.  Using an hosted, online tool, anyone can create an installable toolbar for their site.

Conduit, the company behind the new tool, is expecting 10 million users by next year.  Maybe now would be a good time to give a new toolbar a try… ya know… before the market gets too saturated.  To be honest, I’ve never created a toolbar.  But the right toolbar makes sense:  it keeps visitors coming back to your site and it keeps them thinking about your site or product.

Besides… an Internet Marketing Monitor toolbar has a nice ring to it.  Don't you think?
