What Comes After Social Networking

By Elliot James

I sometimes try to ask myself what the next great factor will turn out to be online. Since the outset of the substantial utilization of the internet in the 90's, there have been a couple important developments that have altered the arena of website marketing.

The earliest innovation was Google. There were a lot of search engines in the beginning of the web but it was not a lengthy period of time before "google" was a verb and Google was gobbling up over 80% search volume on the web. They are continually in takeover form and working closer to total domination of internet search and maximizing their market share in a few other industries like mobile phones. Watching precisely what Google is working on is a crucial process for anybody who needs to promote on the web.

The next significant innovation was the expansion of web-based streaming video and YouTube. As a result of faster internet speeds becoming more widely accessible, streaming video was accessible and YouTube grew virally mainly because of the simplicity of adding and sharing your own movies. Currently a web-site is not worth squat if it does not have some sort of video to advertise a product or service.

The most recent discovery is still progressing. You guessed it! It's social networking. First it was MySpace, then Facebook and Twitter. The expansion of Facebook and Twitter have been enough to challenge the absolute control of Google, Yahoo, and Bing and shift the manner in which internet surfers spend their time spent online. At this point, an enterprise would be foolish not to ever use Twitter, Facebook, and other social marketing strategies while promoting their venture.

People that predicted these breakthrough discoveries or created them on their own are now extremely rich. People that were prepared to speedily make use of these breakthroughs are reaping the rewards of being adaptive and ready to adapt to an ever-changing internet. Here are a couple of basic questions and ideas to be prepared for the future development on the web.

The Growth of Cellular

Many people are now surfing utilizing their phones and ipads. Site owners must adjust to generate web-sites that are mobile accessible. As use of mobile browsers expands, this will continue to become more and more fundamental. As web developers make their images smaller - mobile displays are getting bigger with tablets more popular. This problem may have been restricted to only a handful of years when mobile phones had really small displays. Regardless, with smartphone browsing on the rise, it's important that site visitors can view your content very easily.

Disappearance of Keyboard and Mouse

When you see people using computers in films set in future decades, they are never making use of a keyboard and mouse. They are frequently making use of some type of multi-screen hologram or speech triggered program. It's likely to happen it's simply a matter of when. So exactly what does this really mean for web entrepreneurs? What should it entail for search engine marketing? Voice search is without a doubt becoming more popular with mobile so online marketers should consider search phrases that are spoken as opposed to entered. The resulting key words could be the very same but usually there is a big difference in spoken word and typed-out key phrases. This is also very crucial for technologies organizations and creators of new products. A lot of income has been generated marketing keyboards and mice over the last several years but they may be on their way out before long.

Google Never Ending

Will there ever be a better manner in which to locate things via the internet rather than typing a search phrase into a search engine (or performing a voice search)? I've been wracking my brain trying to think about what will come after Google and I cannot think of it. One development in the past few years is customized advertising. Google continues to be on the leading edge of this concept. They have so much access to user activity online that they can effortlessly individualize adverts to target advertisements to consumers that have displayed need for these things. This doesn't indicate search will change necessarily yet it may indicate that individuals will take less precious time searching in google and significantly more time simply clicking appropriate advertisements on websites. In any case, it's revenue for Google so they don't care.

Many individuals don't worry about looking towards the next significant technology achievement in computer and online technology but individuals who do can reap the benefit of being the first movers.
