LocalBizBits Local Search Marketing Information and Resources
As we begin a new year, predictions on every and any subject are very common. Over the last few weeks, there have been a lot of predictions posted on various online marketing areas. I have been keeping a list of the ones that I thought relevant. Since there are so many, I have not been able to read them all. Have you?
Just found this huge article from Matt McGee: The Big List: 168 Marketing Trends, Predictions & Resolutions For 2011 so if you have the time, there are ton of articles for you! LOL
No one can really say what is going to happen. We can look at trends and concepts that have been introduced but in the end, no one really knows. Following the trends from 2010 and where were are today (Jan 2011), here is what I see continuing to grow:
- Local search, no I am not bias, the facts speak for themselves
- Mobile, iPhone to Verizon? Android based phones share of market growing…this will only get bigger
- Social, Facebook, Twitter, Foursquares etc. These are all services or area that small business need to find a way to tap into.
