About Our AI Powered Digital Marketing Agency in NYC

From 1997 to AI Today, Internete (Internet E-Business, LLC) has evolved into an AI powered digital marketing agency in NYC that helps businesses grow through innovation, intelligent automation, and data-driven SEO.

Internete (Internet E-Business, LLC) was officially formed in 2009 to better serve clients with advanced SEO, SEM, and automation solutions. The company evolved from Y New Media, Inc. to launch a new generation of digital platforms under one consistent voice—continuing a legacy that began in 1997.

Our Founder

Founder Yeon S. Hong has been a pioneer in digital media since 1994. He started his first agency, Y Design Ltd., an award-winning design studio that served major brands including Samsung America and EDS. In 1999, he co-founded Medium4.com, which went public on the American Stock Exchange (AMEX: MDM) and reached a $100 million market cap within two years.

Under his leadership, Medium4 employed internationally recognized media professionals such as Peter Arnett and Dr. Ruth Westheimer, ranking among the top five content providers on Microsoft’s Windows Media platform. Today, Yeon continues to lead Internete’s mission to help businesses thrive through intelligent automation, performance analytics, and measurable ROI.

As an AI powered digital marketing agency in NYC, Internete continues to help brands innovate through data-driven automation and creative strategy. Our goal is to empower businesses with scalable systems that generate long-term results and consistent growth.

Internete Awards

In January 2000, Yeon was featured on YTN — the Korean equivalent of CNN — as one of the leading entrepreneurs in the digital media industry. He invented the Internet E-Business System™ (IES), an all-in-one platform that combined PPC, SEO, CMS, CRM, project management, billing, and email marketing. This innovation made enterprise-level digital solutions affordable for small to mid-sized businesses.
