After several years of declining product sales, the online nutrition site NutriShake revamped its marketing strategy. Before this change, NutriShake was focused on search engine optimization strategies to boost its rankings in search results on a big interet search engine. The new marketing strategy attempted to penetrate further into customers' referral networks by making use of Pay-per-Click ads on a business social network.

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Two forms to do that are technically available

(1) You are directly selling to clients on the website

(2) You are selling by indirect website and handler.

For example, Amazon has a variety of other companies that sell their goods on the website of Amazon. The Amazon prices are almost the same as those of the retailers. If you are a buyer, are you going to buy Amazon goods or visit the website of the seller? I find it's more easy and time consuming to "pay by button" on Amazon.

The two strategies are different, and they cannot be interchangeable
